TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Alexandria City High School               August   2025 - now

At Alexandria City High School, I teach 9th and 10th grade students through inquiry-based lessons, hands-on labs, and real-world scientific investigations. I support students in building skills in data analysis, scientific reasoning, and evidence-based explanations, while also mentoring Honors students through district and regional science fair projects.

Washtenaw International High School               August  2024 -  June  2025

As a student teacher, I taught International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP) Biology to 11th and 12th grade students under the supervision of my mentor. I served as the lead instructor for six class periods daily, developing and delivering curriculum aligned with IB standards. My responsibilities included lesson planning, classroom instruction, assessment design, and fostering inquiry-based learning in a rigorous academic setting.

University of Michigan                           August  2023 -  May  2025

I served as an instructor for introductory biology courses, leading one to two sections per term with 20–25 undergraduate students per section. In Fall 2023, I taught Ecology and Evolution (BIOLOGY 171), focusing on foundational biological concepts and evolutionary processes. In Fall 2024 and Winter 2025, I instructed Introductory Biology Laboratory (BIOLOGY 173), guiding students through hands-on experimentation, data analysis, and scientific communication. My responsibilities included delivering course content, facilitating discussions, mentoring students, and assessing academic performance.

Pioneer High School                June 2025 -  August 2025

As the Middle School Summer Challenge (Ann Arbor Public Schools), I supported lead teachers in delivering English and Math instruction to incoming middle school students. I assisted in planning and facilitating lessons aligned with Michigan state standards, provided individualized academic support, and helped create an engaging, inclusive environment for diverse learners during this summer enrichment program.
