Experience

Elementary Mathematical Models. American University, Fall 2013.

Taught two sections Fall 2013. Will teach one section Spring 2014.

Electronics and Instrumentation, The Johns Hopkins University, Spring 2013.

Taught entire course. Supervised 3 TA's.

Freshman Experiences: Matlab and Pendula, The Johns Hopkins University, Fall 2012.

Delivered one lecture (click title for notes).

Computational Analysis of Stochastic Processes. The Johns Hopkins University, Spring 2012.

Developed course, but insufficient enrollment, apparently due to poor advertising.

Locomotion, The Johns Hopkins University, Fall 2011.

I was the Teaching Assistant. Graded homework and assisted students with course projects. Course taught by Prof. Noah Cowan.

Modeling and Identifying Neural Systems, The Johns Hopkins University, Spring 2009.

Developed and taught entire course.

Neural Circuits and Behavior, The Johns Hopkins University, Fall 2008

Assisted with instruction.

Locomotion Control, The Johns Hopkins University, Spring 2008

Guest lecturer for three classes (March-April). Prepared and graded one homework set. Course taught by Professor Noah Cowan.

Topics in Motor Control, The University of Maryland, Spring 2006

Informal teaching assistant to Professor John Jeka. I gave three weeks of lectures and created and graded three homework sets.

Calculus II for Engineers, Cornell University, Spring 1997

Teaching assistant for three sections of a class taught by Professor Alfred Schatz.
Beyond my official duties, I developed a lengthy study guide (parts 1; 2; and 3a and 3b). I created the guide by greatly expanding a similar but much shorter document written by a previous TA. (Though, in the guide, I credited Don Allers as the author, I more than doubled the length of his document and improved the exposition.)
