2009年6月12日 暑期找工记

先是 报名参加了NYC DYCD的Program，因为Program里还有高中生，所以一切summer intern都要7月份才开始！也参加了他们的所有workshop，模拟面试，就等他们帮忙联系summer internship的消息了！
昨天在学校，下午快2：30了，一个电话打进来，也没听清她说是哪个公司或者organization的，还问我她发音我的名字对不对！忽悠了一会儿，才知道她是什么招人的，想约个时间面试。问了一下，这个internship做啥的，她说是关于media的东西！我对这个也没概念啊~~~跟我学的是一点关系都没有！而且我也赶着去2：30那堂课，就很nice的把这个机会拒了！
这不，还在睡梦中，迷迷糊糊的！手机又响了！又是一个关于summer internship的。这次是Berkeley College，在Manhattan 东边41街那里！说实话，要不是DYCD的workshop用的是Berkeley College的教室，我还真不知道纽约市里还有个这么个大学。打电话来得时Berkeley College，academic support center的一个男的，说他下个星期不再，所以约个23号早上去面试。电话里问了一下要做啥呢？根据我简历的background，他说是做数学的tutor！这个好啊~~~轻车熟路的！所以就定好了时间去面试！
也不知道下个星期之内还有没有什么新的电话进来关于暑期internship的！不过我有个问题想问一下，如果去了面试，结果也不错，最终被录取了！然后我是不是还可以把他们推掉啊？！
祝我好运，祝福所有人有个愉快的夏天！

Reflections on Online Teaching: Challenges, Adaptations, and the Future of Digital Learning

Online teaching and learning are no longer novel concepts—especially after the COVID-19 pandemic forced the world into a remote working and learning environment. That period also marked my first experience teaching an online math course at New York University School of Professional Studies. While online education is here to stay, my journey with it has been both rewarding and challenging.  Initially, I appreciated the convenience of not having to commute to a physical classroom. However, as a math instructor, I quickly realized the difficulties of engaging students in an online setting. Mathematics is inherently procedural, and fostering discussion isn’t always as effective as seeing students’ step-by-step work to assess their understanding. Typing equations is far less intuitive than handwriting, which presented another hurdle.  To address this, I invested in an XP-Pen, a digital drawing tablet typically used by graphic designers. This tool allowed me to annotate PowerPoint s...

How I Use AI to Strengthen My Writing Process

As a former English Language Learner and now an educator, I’ve developed a writing process that balances creativity with structure. When approaching assignments—like this blog post—I always start with free writing. I jot down every idea, memory, and professional insight that comes to mind, without worrying about grammar, spelling, or even coherence. For me, capturing the raw thoughts is the most important step; refinement comes later. Once I have my draft, I turn to AI tools (like this one!) for help organizing my ideas into a cohesive, logical flow. I’ll paste my unstructured notes and ask the AI to: Restructure my points for clarity and impact. Polish language without losing my authentic voice. Bridge gaps between personal anecdotes and broader themes (e.g., connecting my high school blogging to modern online pedagogy). This collaboration feels empowering. The AI doesn’t replace my thinking—it elevates it, helping me articulate complex reflections (like cognitive load theory or async...
