Teaching Awards

Every year, graduate instructors are nominated by undergraduate students for the Penn Prize for Excellence in Teaching by Graduate Students, a teaching prize awarded by the Office of the Provost. In 2022, I was one of 10 students across the university to be awarded this prize. I feel really proud to have received this honor because nominations came directly from students I have taught and mentored.
