Hello! I'm Erica

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics & Applied Mathematics at Virginia Commonwealth University. My research interests lie in the area of undergraduate mathematics education, primarily in the professional development of graduate teaching assistants (GTAs). My projects have focused on GTAs’ growth as teachers, GTAs’ use of instructional examples, GTAs’ and undergraduate tutor’s beliefs about the teaching and learning of mathematics, and the alignment of classroom observation protocols with current best practices. As a strong believer in the benefits of active learning for all students, I seeks to guide students as they construct their understanding of mathematics.
