Teaching Interests
I am passionate about teaching core mathematics courses such as the calculus sequence, differential equations, linear algebra, real variables, and numerical analysis. I enjoy helping students see the connections among these subjects and how they build on one another. I strongly believe in active learning and regularly incorporate a variety of active learning strategies to create an engaging and interactive classroom environment. I also strive to continually improve my instruction by integrating research-informed teaching practices to make my courses more effective and enjoyable for students.
