“I have been teaching here since 2007,” Green told the Palisadian-Post. “This award was unexpected because there are so many fine instructors at UCLA and I am so honored that they recognized my work.”
The goal of the UCLA Academic Senate Teaching Award is to increase awareness of UCLA’s leadership in teaching and public service by honoring individuals who bring respect and admiration to the scholarship of teaching.
“I was hired as a lecturer and appointed adjunct assistant professor two years ago. My main purpose here is to teach freshman math classes (Precalculus and Calculus I, II or III) and to help freshmen transition from high school to university life. I spend a lot of time with my students, and I like working with them very much,” Green said.
