Teaching Experience

Current Roles

I am currently leading the course "Dynamical Systems" at Saarland University.

 

In this course we cover

​

  • Basic theory of ordinary differential equations,

  • Qualitative analysis in mathematical ecology,

  • Autonomous dynamical systems,

  • Stability and bifurcation theory,

​

​

The course homepage can be found here.

​

Last year, I was a teaching assistant for the course "Partial Differential Equations 1" at Saarland University. The course homepage can be found here.

`Taste of Research' Undergraduate Seminars (TORUS)

In 2018 I founded the `Taste of Research’ Undergraduate Seminars, also known as TORUS. These seminars are run by maths PhD students and are designed to introduce undergraduate students to some of the research being completed at the University of Surrey. 

​

These seminars continue to be run by PhD students at the University of Surrey, and more information can be found at this link.

Postgraduate Research Seminars

In 2018 I started the `Postgraduate Research Seminars’ to provide an opportunity for PhD students to discuss and present their work in an informal environment. These seminars consist of PhD students, sometimes from other Universities, presenting talks on their research or interests to an audience of just PhD and Master’s students.

​

Widening Participation Summer School

Every year, the University of Surrey’s Widening Participation team runs week-long summer schools for many subjects, including maths. As part of this event, students take part in a group project where they tackle a mathematical problem and present their results at the end of the week.

​

I was lucky enough to be involved with this programme in both 2018 and 2019. As part of this experience, I prepared research projects, presented an introductory talk on the research area, and then provided guidance and support throughout the week.
