Teaching Experience

I worked as a lecturer in the Linguistics Department at UCLA in the Winter of 2016 and Spring of 2015 quarters. In my classes, I mentored and guided students in conducting research at all stages, from conception to presentation. I lectured using a collaborative problem-solving approach, I developed problem sets and exams, and I managed graduate student assistants.

I was a teaching fellow in graduate school. In “Grammatical Diversity in US English,” I guided students in conducting original research, including survey design and data analysis, and I helped with course planning, selecting readings, and leading class discussions. In two other courses, I led discussion sections, clarified key themes from readings and lectures, developed problem sets, and guided collaborative problem solving.
