Teaching Experience

MEC ENG 103

Experimentation and Measurements
Lead Teaching Assistant — Department of Mechanical Engineering, UC Berkeley

This course covers the principles and practices of experimental measurement in mechanical engineering. Topics include sensor technologies, data acquisition systems, signal processing, uncertainty analysis, and experimental design. Students gain hands-on experience with various measurement instruments and learn to design, conduct, and analyze engineering experiments.

  • Lead weekly lab sections and office hours
  • Develop and grade lab reports, assignments, and midterms
  • Developing course website for Spring 2026
  • Mentor students on experimental techniques and data analysis
  • Coordinate with course staff on curriculum improvements

Note: I am unable to post current course materials while actively teaching. Once I complete my TA position, I will share my notes and resources here.

MEC ENG 132

Dynamical Systems and Feedback Control
Lead Teaching Assistant — Department of Mechanical Engineering, UC Berkeley

This course introduces the analysis and design of feedback control systems. Topics include modeling of dynamic systems, transfer functions, block diagrams, stability analysis, root locus methods, frequency response techniques, and controller design. Students apply these concepts to real-world mechanical and electromechanical systems.

  • Led discussion sections and held office hours
  • Graded problem sets and exams
  • Assisted students with MATLAB/Simulink simulations
  • Helped develop course materials, practice problems, and exams

MATH 52/1B

Calculus II
Reader — Department of Mathematics, UC Berkeley

This course covers techniques and applications of integration, including integration by substitution, integration by parts, trigonometric integrals, partial fractions, improper integrals, sequences, series, and Taylor series.

  • Managed Gradescope for 1000+ students and 2 discussion sections of 150 students
  • Graded weekly problem sets, quizzes, and exams with consistency and technical accuracy
