Overview

Experimental Unreal Notes is a project-based Unreal Engine 5 course at Rhode Island School of Design. As Teaching Assistant, I supported students from diverse backgrounds in learning real-time 3D workflows, technical problem solving, and interactive project development. My role included classroom instruction, one-on-one mentoring, troubleshooting, and the creation of teaching materials and example projects.

What I Contributed

I developed demonstration projects, Blueprint examples, rendering workflows, and technical exercises that helped students understand core Unreal Engine concepts. Throughout the semester, I provided individual support on debugging, project architecture, Sequencer, lighting, materials, and real-time production pipelines, helping students move from initial ideas to functional prototypes.
