Teaching & Supervision

I am a firm believer in Federico Ardila's axioms, quoted below.

Axiom 1. Mathematical potential is distributed equally among different groups, irrespective of geographic, demographic, and economic boundaries.

Axiom 2. Everyone can have joyful, meaningful, and empowering mathematical experiences.

Axiom 3. Mathematics is a powerful, malleable tool that can be shaped and used differently by various communities to serve their needs.

Axiom 4. Every student deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.

Supervision: I am always happy to supervise research students. Please contact me if you are considering studying topics in any of my research areas, and I would be happy to discuss this further. Recent undergraduate projects I've supervised at Durham: 

 2021/22: Spatial Population Dynamics in Changing Ecosystems (4th year), 

2022/23: Dynamical Systems on Networks (3rd year) , Numerical Bifurcation Analysis of Complex Systems (4th year),

2023/24: Asymptotic Analysis & Applied Nonlinear Dynamical Systems (4th year)

Teaching Experience/Philosophy: For a full list of courses taught and students supervised, please see my CV. You can also find a teaching portfolio I wrote here which is a very lengthy discussion of my teaching philosophy, experience, etc.
