Teaching Philosophy
Teaching/mentoring is the most rewarding aspect of my professional career and forms the core of my identity in academia.
My goal is to contribute to students' personal and professional development.
This requires understanding their current state of intellectual and professional growth, as well as their future goals.
Mentoring is meant to inspire and encourage them in achieving their self-driven goals, rather than defining their careers or lives.
I believe that motivating students to take action towards the accomplishment of their self-driven goals is key.
[Left image] In a post-course survey conducted in Fall 2022, many students expressed their continued interest and fondness for math, with some even stating their love for the subject.
I want to express my gratitude to all the students who participated in my class, had fun, and grew together with me!
