Teaching, Supervision, and Mentorship
I take pride in my role as a teacher, mentor, and supervisor of undergraduate and graduate students. I invite you to learn more about my course instruction experience, teaching philosophy, or feedback from previous students.
Testimonials
“Aria is very approachable and willing to share her knowledge and experiences with newer students to the program. I really appreciate not only her effort to include me in projects and social gatherings, but also her constant encouragement and constructive feedback.”
“I felt a lot less intimidated approaching Aria about questions and concerns about small things. She offered constructive criticism when requested and always did so in a professional manner. I appreciate having the guidance of more senior students especially when it come to lab and program expectations. ”
“I appreciated Aria’s detailed feedback on assignments and thoughtful discussions during student-led class sessions. She is clearly knowledgeable about the subject area. ”
“Aria was always well-prepared for group meetings, leading them effectively and offering sound advice when needed. She did an excellent job of building rapport amongst our team, which helped us work together more efficiently, but also made the work environment more comfortable. She was always responsive to queries we had about practicum responsibilities and guided us through problem-solving issues. By having a peer supervisor, I felt like I had someone to lean on when struggling with student cases, etc. I was also able to strengthen my skills through the advice and feedback she provided throughout the year. ”
