At UConn, I taught the following courses:

Spring 2006

• Math 374 (Algebraic topology II)

Fall 2005

• Math 373 (Algebraic topology I)
• Math 115Q (Calculus I)

While a post doc at Berkeley, I taught:

• Math 110 (Linear algebra -- Fall 2002)
• Math 113 (Abstract algebra -- Spring 2003)
• Math 110 (Linear algebra -- Fall 2003)

As a grad student at MIT, I taught:

During the fall of 2000 at MIT, I taught a recitation for 18.06 (Linear Algebra).

During the fall of 2000, I also had the opportunity to be teaching at ArsDigita University. I taught a month-long course on Mathematics for Computer Science, in which we covered parts of single variable calculus and basic linear algebra. I taught rectations for Discrete Mathematics, in which we covered some basic combinatorics, graph theory, logic, and algorithm analysis. My thoughts on teaching at ADU are here.

During the fall of 1999, I taught a recitation of 18.01 (Single variable calculus)

I have evaluations from my courses.

I have a teaching statement in html.
