Teaching & Mentoring

I help students connect engineering concepts with practical measurements, experiments, and problem-solving.

Teaching Experience

Pennsylvania State University

United States

Spring 2024

Graduate Teaching Assistant

Agricultural Measurements and Control Systems (BE 305)

3-credit course · Five 2-hour laboratory meetings

Hands-on laboratory instruction in measurement, instruments, controls, and data acquisition for agricultural and biological applications.

  • Taught and assisted students with meters and oscilloscopes, resistance circuits, capacitors, soldering, diodes, filters and resonance, and strain gauges.
  • Helped students connect electronic principles with practical measurement applications.

University of Cape Coast

Ghana

Teaching Assistant

Introduction to Mathematics and Statistics
Introduction to Engineering

Supported first-year students in core quantitative and engineering concepts.

  • Facilitated tutorials, supervised and assessed quizzes, and provided one-on-one academic support.
  • Guided final-year project work, including problem definition, analysis, and preparation of final submissions.

Teaching & Mentoring Approach

I use practical work to help students understand the ideas behind a measurement, a circuit, or an engineering decision. My goal is to build confidence alongside technical understanding.

Connect theory with practice

Use laboratory tasks and real problems to make engineering concepts tangible.

Build independence

Break projects into manageable milestones, with regular feedback and increasing student ownership.

Explain the evidence

Encourage clear documentation, interpretation of results, and communication of limitations.

Teaching Interests
