Teaching

This semester (Spring 2016) I am marking for Cryptography.

In the past I have marked and taken seminars for Calculus and Probability, Linear Algebra, Algebra, Combinatorics, Point Set Topology, Analysis, Fermat’s Last Theorem, Theory of Finite Groups and Representation Theory. I have also given revision lectures for Linear Algebra and Representation Theory. I have been involved in the pure maths drop-in sessions since their inception, and have jointly given lectures on how to give a mathematical presentation.

I initiated the inclusion of external speakers are the PGR seminar series and organised that seroed at UEA in the Autumn term of 2014. Details of the talks can be found here.
I was a member of the Equality and Diversity committee, and am pleased to announce that the department was recently granted an Athena Swan bronze award.
I was a member of the Green Impact steering committee.

Abstract for outreach titles:
Hunting for Platonic solids Platonic solids are shapes whose beauty has provided inspiration to mathematicians for millennia. Pythagoras discovered them, Plato based his philosophy on them and Keplar even thought they could model the solar system, but what are they and how many are there? Discover the answer to these questions (and more) by building shapes from polydrons.
Infectious mathematics Contagious diseases survive and spread by infecting new hosts. In many situations it is beneficial to understand how a disease spreads through a population, and therefore answer questions about how quickly it spreads, and whether it will spread to the whole population. Using a series of interactive games we will create and improving a model for the spread of a disease.
