Teaching Experience in detail in Game development Course

I have a robust seven-year background in game development, particularly in virtual reality (VR), complemented by extensive teaching experience. As an instructor and course designer at iDTech, a division of Emeritus, and in collaboration with NYU – Tandon School of Engineering, I have designed and delivered comprehensive curriculums for specialized AR/VR programs, Unity game development, and Roblox Lua scripting. My courses emphasize practical, hands-on learning, guiding students through real projects and ensuring they understand and can apply key principles independently. I've authored two guidebooks, "Unity Virtual Reality Development with VRTK4: A No-Coding Approach to Developing Immersive VR Experiences, Games, & Apps" and "Roblox Lua Scripting Essentials: A Step-by-Step Guide," which are integrated into my courses to provide additional support and practical exercises. My teaching methodology centers on project-based learning, interactive sessions, personalized guidance, and real-world applications, fostering a collaborative and engaging learning environment. This approach has led many of my students to create their own games and VR applications, some of which have been showcased in exhibitions and competitions. My efforts have built a vibrant community of learners who continue to support each other, and I consistently receive positive feedback, which I use to refine my courses continually.
