Senior Lead Teaching Fellow (‘23-’24), Lead Teaching Fellow (‘22-’23). The S/LTF is a selective teaching professional opportunity for doctoral students at Columbia. As the Lead Teaching Fellow, I’ve organized monthly Learning Lunches where 10 students chat with established Professors about pedagogy, inclusive teaching, and academia. I also hosted a Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve Teaching Workshop, where doctoral students worked together to develop lesson plans, integrate feedback using a 4-pronged rubric focused on accessibility, inclusivity, and antiracial course design, and then re-teach lessons. I mentor doctoral students in completing the prestigious Teaching Development Program certification, which is noted on the diplomas of high-achieving teachers at Columbia.
