For the studio course, I introduced international folk dancing to 60 students per quarter, gave studio classes 6 hours per week, including body movements and in-class discussions. I was also responsible for designing my own syllabi, grading, and providing feedback on formal and informal student writing. For lecture and online courses (with Zoom across all UCs), I provided a one-hour lecture for 150 students in each quarter. I led 3 discussion sessions with 75 students, and my tasks included leading weekly discussions, grading performance response papers and quarterly exams, giving feedback on students’ homework, papers, and tests.
