I taught the engineering section (number 007!) of single-variable calculus, Math 104. This class was very different from anything that I'd taught before: the students were asked to watch about thirty minutes worth of Rob Ghrist's painstakingly-created lecture videos. I took advantage of the fact that students had already scanned the material once in order to introduce advanced concepts (like Big-O) and work through tougher problems.

Here is the course website, and here is the student feedback. The Penn Math Department gave me a good teaching award for this course.

With Subhrajit Bhattacharya and Robert Ghrist, I was an instructor for Penn's Pre-Freshmen Program on behalf of the School of Engineering. We were responsible for a one-month crash course in calculus that has been designed to prepare a select group of incoming freshmen for Penn's engineering calculus sequence starting in Fall 2014. Aside from various inside-jokes involving Indiana Jones, there is no student feedback in this course.

I taught linear algebra (Math 312) at Penn. Here is the course webpage and here are the student evaluations. This class was a lot of fun: we covered the Perron-Frobenius theorem, the fast Fourier transform, linear programming and duality, and (of course) the singular value decomposition.

I was the Teaching Assistant for Robert Ghrist's MOOC masterpiece: the first-ever run of Single-variable calculus on Coursera. Responsibilities included generating exam problems, their solutions, and occasionally monitoring the discussion fora. Sadly, there are no associated course evaluations.

My first course as the sole instructor! I taught a single summer section of Multi-variable Calculus (Math 251) at Rutgers. Breaking from several years of Rutgers tradition, our class covered both Taylor series for multi-variable functions and functions of Euclidean space in full generality (from n-space to m-space). In particular, we saw gradients as a special case of Jacobian matrices. Although this required setting aside some class time for basic matrix mechanics, the pay-off was clearly visible when covering the multi-variable chain rule. Evaluations and comments from the students are here.

I was the teaching assistant for three sections of Stephen Greenfield's Multivariable Calculus (Math 251) course at Rutgers. Here are the evaluations from Section 15, Section 16 and Section 17.
