Teaching Statement
, Duke University, Physics Department, 2024
I received my PhD from Physics department at Duke University. In my graduate school, I had many opportunities for outreach, teaching, and pedagogical training. I participated in science community outreach through stargazing open houses at the Duke Teaching Observatory; learnt about pedagogical practices through the Duke Graduate School’s Certificate in College Teaching and by working as a Teaching Assistant (TA) for several Duke physics courses. Any course in physics comes associated with it new mathematics, new physical insights and translation of the new mathematics into physical insights. Juggling these abstract physical and mathematical ideas simultaneously is what makes physics learning so challenging.
