In my opinion teaching is a lot about passion.

My teaching statement is here.

Teaching portfolio

Here are the courses I can offer to teach. Courses with a (*) I can also teach as a hands-on or intensive courses with a duration from one day to a week long. If you are interested in these hands-on courses, feel free to invite me (contact). I like to travel and exploring new cultures. The courses with a (+) I can hold with only a little preparation. I try to decrease the amount of classic lecture style classes in my courses to a minimum in favor of active learning methods. Expect a lot of hands on, interaction, and computer usage work in my classes.

I would be also interested in teaching the following:

• Game and simulation design (not only for Computer Science, I have background for developing games for the Estonian society: see algs)

• Database design
• Online collaboration and learning (content management, wikis, moodle and friends)
• Mashup programming and Scraping - How to harvest contents?

I have a long record in supervising students (see advising). If you are a student and need help with your work or have a good idea for a thesis in my research areas or projects, do not hesitate to contact me.
