Teaching

I work as teach assistant so teaching is also part of my job at university. Here is a list af my activities:

  • Exercices of general physics.
  • Exercices and laboratories of statistical physics.
  • Exercices of theoretical physics.

Research Interests

My research works are focused on experimetal studies of bouncing droplets on a vibrated liquid surface.
