Distinctions
In 2012 I was invited by the Teaching Support Centre to act as an Expert Teaching Assistant Panelist during TA Day at Western. This university-wide annual event serves to prepare new TAs for their teaching assignments. I shared advice for being an effective and efficient TA, and answered questions about teaching experiences.
