teaching

I entered the world of teaching as a Teaching Assistant for the course Computer Organization while I was doing my Bachelors in Computer Science at the TU Delft.

Since then, I’ve been unable to stop teaching. I continued TA’ing throughout my Bachelors and Masters at the TU, worked as a full-time teacher at the TU for a year after graduating, and then started as both a teacher and PhD student at the VU.

In addition to teaching courses, I also supervise multiple students and student groups for courses and research projects associated with the @Large group.

Course Overview

Computer Networks

Here you can find the slides for my Computer Networks course at VU. If you are a teacher, you are free to use them for your own courses, but please cite me. If you are a student, you are free to use them to study, but when in doubt, follow the book of your course. In both cases, please always check for errors. I am not responsible for incorrect answers on your exam. :)
