Saba Gerami

I am a student and educator of mathematics. I am interested in better understanding the complexity of mathematics instruction in undergraduate classrooms, specifically in calculus and within inquiry-oriented settings. Before persuing my doctoral studies at University of Michigan, I received my M.S. in mathematics at Cal Poly - San Luis Obispo in California and taught a variety of mathematics courses for four years at Cal Poly and Alan Hancock Community College. I am soon joining Cal Poly - San Luis Obispo as an assistant professor in mathematics.

I am originally from Tehran, Iran. After immigrating to the U.S. with my family at the age of 18, I started my college education at Santa Monica Community College, and later UCLA, where I found my passion for learning and tutoring mathematics. Non-academically, I enjoy cooking and tasting new foods, drinking dark beer, traveling and finding friends around the world, anything Hamilton-related (the musical), learning about mental health issues, reading graphic novels, and spending time with my loving partner and our goodest dog, Hagrid.
