At Mathnasium, I help students ranging from kindergartners to high schoolers learn math. I work one-on-one with students to help them gain conceptual understanding as opposed to algorithmic approaches. This requires patience and skill in dealing with children, as well as being able to distill potentially complex ideas into explainable ones through pedagogical insights. My responsibilities include:- Help students gain a deep understanding of mathematical topics ranging from basic arithmetic to calculus- Introduce new mathematical topics to advanced students- Grade assignments and maintain the center

The Summer STEM program is a program at Cooper Union that aims to teach high school kids STEM concepts such as experimentation and design innovation, as well as encourage an interest in STEM. Over 200 high school students were enrolled, and divided into smaller groups, each of which worked on different projects. I was part of a team of 5 teaching assistants who taught the Race Car section, where we used Cooper Union's FSAE car to teach students engineering skills. My responsibilities included: -Taught high school students basics of experimentation, including use of basic measurement tools and error and data analysis. -Led students through design of experiment to test carbon fiber bond methods to teach engineering skill, critical thinking ability, and to engage and encourage them in STEM.-Coached students on how to present data and results to an audience quickly and effectively.

At KUMON, I was part of a team that taught and reinforced concepts taught in school for young students, ranging from age 3 to 16. My responsibilities included:- Instructed students on early learning topics. - Graded students' homework and tests.- Performed data entry with student scores and information.- Update students' folders with appropriate work and new assignments.

H. Galow Company, Inc. is a precision machining company, focusing on parts for medical and aerospace applications. As an engineering intern, I focused mainly on CAD for machine shop technicians and CNC operators. I also collected data on machining runs and helped to validate and verify machining process decisions. My responsibilities included: -Used AutoCAD to create drawings of parts for CNC operators.-Updated drawings of aerospace and medical parts for clients to ensure proper GD&T (geometric dimensioning and tolerancing).-Collected and analyzed data using Microsoft Excel to approve parts for PPAP (production part approval process) and characterize new machining runs.
