University of Texas - Dallas
August 2023 - May 2024

As a Graduate Teaching Assistant at the University of Texas at Dallas, I had the chance to work closely with students on Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA). I found it incredibly rewarding to help them translate theoretical concepts into practical skills. Through interactive DSA labs, I managed to boost student performance by 20%, making these complex topics more engaging and easier to understand.
One of the key strategies I used was encouraging students to tackle at least one LeetCode question every day. This daily practice not only reinforced their learning but also helped them develop strong problem-solving habits.
I also focused on providing personalized support to over 100 students, addressing their individual struggles and clarifying challenging concepts. This approach fostered a collaborative and supportive environment that enhanced their overall learning experience.
Additionally, I streamlined the grading process for programming assignments, which led to a 30% improvement in both accuracy and feedback efficiency. This allowed me to give more detailed and constructive feedback, which played a significant role in helping students refine their coding skills and problem-solving abilities.
