Taught a molecular biology course in the Summer of 2011 and a human physiology course in the Summer of 2012.• Curriculum based on college-level course and was meant to give High School seniors an experience akin to college work.• Prepared and organized lectures, organized students into groups and helped each group design and prepare the final project.• Evaluated students’ performance by grading their work and submitted final grades.

• Taught both Laboratory and Lectures. Responsible for the development of Syllabus as well as lab experiments. • Helped students with weekly experiments and tutored student’s during weekly office hours • Evaluated students’ performance by grading their lab reports and submitted final grades
