Teaching Experience
Overview
I am currently an academic tutor for 2nd-year students at the University of Manchester, where I also supervise an MPhys project. Previously, I accumulated over five years of teaching experience as an assistant professor between 2015 and 2020.
Teaching Experience
Taught various courses in physics, mechanics, and energy across 13 universities.
Participated in numerous training courses on modern teaching methodologies.
Managed and evaluated quality assurance programs.
Developed course descriptions and program plans for academic curricula.
Supervised and evaluated multiple graduation projects.
Organized several workshops and forums to engage and support students.
Early Teaching Experience
Before my academic teaching career, I gained early experience teaching in high schools:
One year of teaching after completing high school.
Two years of teaching following my bachelor’s degree.
