Teaching & supervision

Last update: 04/01/2023

Teaching

My PhD, having taken place on two different geographical sites (moving every 6 months), I could not teach during it. However, as soon as the nature of my work contracts and the context allowed it, I chose to join teaching. Thus, since 2018, I have been teaching and mentoring students as a visiting professor and postdoc. The core of my past teaching lies in artificial intelligence, machine learning, python programming, and cognitive science, always with an “introduction to research” component. I, therefore, have experience with a variety of audiences (majors, ages/maturity, universities) and disciplines (computer science, and cognitive science).

Artificial intelligence

12h, 17 students in bac+5 (Master level

Supervision

Since 2018, in parallel to my work, I chose to supervise students on different themes related to my research fields. The supervision was done either in the context of an internship, part-time training, or end-of-study project or as a request from the student himself. As for teaching, I have acquired experience with a variety of audiences (fields, ages/maturity, universities) and disciplines (computer science, and cognitive science). The list below is not exhaustive.
