“Schools function as sites for direct experiences of civic authority relations. It is at the schoolhouse that most individuals have their first, formative experiences of how public institutions and authorities govern” (Bruch and Soss 2016)
For the 2018-2019 year, I am serving as a Searle Graduate Teaching Fellow and leading the Political Science Teaching Committee, which organizes pedagogical discussions, the new TA mentorship program, and peer teaching observations. I have also led cross-disciplinary workshops on Lesson Planning around Learning Objectives, Inclusive Teaching, and Small Group Work. I was honored to receive the Minar Prize for Teaching Excellence by a Graduate Student in Political Science Department and was nominated for the Weinberg College Outstanding Graduate Student Teacher Award. During my time at Northwestern, I have served as a Teaching Assistant for the classes below.
