I enjoy the process of teaching, especially explaining concepts in an understandable way without compromising the complexity of an idea.

Teaching skills are important for a researcher. I think one needs to properly deliver their work to an audience, not just for promoting one's work, but also to enable better follow-up questions and ideas. At BU, I was a graduate teaching assistant for
fluid mechanics and engineering statics.

​

Prior to starting my Ph.D. at BU, I was a Visiting Assistant Professor for 1 year at the State University of New York (SUNY), Farmingdale Mechanical Engineering Technology department, doing both research and teaching. I saw this time as a mini-version of a faculty lifestyle and enjoyed it. This was one of the reasons I decided to pursue a Ph.D.

 

My teaching reviews as a Visiting Assistant Professor in Dynamics are shown below. I also taught Thermodynamics, Statics, and CAD.
