Scheduled classes and planned, prepared, and taught curriculum on various computer subjects including internet, MS Word, MS Excel, and MS PowerPointMaintained class rostersDeveloped and evaluated class surveys to assess student satisfaction and continuing needsPromoted educational opportunities through community outreach

Coordinated semester schedule with physics department; assigned each lab section a teaching assistant; interviewed, hired, and trained new teaching assistants as needed; ran regular meetings with teaching assistants and lab professors; provided conflict resolution support as necessary

Communicated introductions and grading expectations at the start of each lab period; provided in-class assistance as students completed experiments; ensured availability to answer questions outside of class in a variety of formats including email and text; graded 20-30 notebooks weekly
