I was an instructor for the course Biology with Human Genetics at the School of Pharmacy, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia for two years. I have prepared and conducted introductory lectures followed by the laboratory sessions.
As a graduate student at Iowa State University, I was a teaching assistant for the course Biology 302L - Molecular Cell Biology and Biochemistry for one year. I have prepared and conducted introductory lectures as well as the laboratory sessions including a supervision of the students’ work and a discussion of problem sets.
As a post-doctoral fellow at the Northwestern University, Chicago, IL, I have trained several PhD and MD/PhD students in the laboratory work for 5 years.
As a faculty at the Medical College of Wisconsin, I was involved in Neuroscience laboratory sessions, I conducted lectures for Fundamentals of Neuroscience course and teaching the Developmental and Stem Cell Biology course for graduate students for three years.
I have also tutored undergraduate and graduate students primarily helping them to understand scientific papers and basic principles of biology research as well as shaping their PhD thesis projects on the online platform Superprof from 2020-2022.
