Supervised Teacher

Schedule a meeting with me and submit your application using the ST application survey.

Are you an ECE PhD student looking to strengthen your teaching skills, design engaging lectures and assignments, communicate complex ideas clearly, and prepare for future academic roles? Under my mentorship, you can apply to become a supervised teacher—an opportunity to gain hands-on experience, receive feedback, and develop your own teaching philosophy in a supportive environment.

I have had the privilege of mentoring many PhD students through the Supervised Teaching (ST) program. Two of my mentees have been honored with the ECE Graduate Excellence in Teaching Award, a testament to their growth and dedication.
