 Teaching and Outreach

Recent Teaching:

• Summer (B), 2021: MATH 2002 (Intermediate Calculus II).
• Summer (B), 2020: MATH 2002 (Intermediate Calculus II).
• Summer (A), 2019: MATH 1115 (Mathematics for Commerce).

Outreach: Going to schools in HRM and throughout Nova Scotia and sharing the beauty and joy of math has been a fantastic opportunity for me, and a lot of fun. I have worked as presenter/content developer for NS Math Circles from 2018 to 2020, and as interim director as of August 2020.

Teaching Philosophy: I think that a good teacher, like a good coach, works with a person's natural abilities, and helps them to achieve their personal best.
