I’m passionate about teaching game development and helping students turn their ideas into playable games. With hands-on experience in Unity and C#, I enjoy guiding students through programming, game mechanics, UI systems, and the fundamentals of game design while encouraging them to build their own projects and develop their problem-solving skills. I've taught Unity fundamentals and C# programming at TUMO, guiding students as they build 2D and 3D games from scratch through hands-on projects. I've developed Unity projects ranging from a three-level pixel-art survival adventure with boss battles to a sidescroller RPG featuring crafting, skill progression, and a talent tree. I also built a wave-based 3D FPS with weapon switching and reloading, plus an infinite space shooter with Unity's new input system and waypoint-based enemy pathfinding. In Unreal Engine, I created Shooter Robots, a third-person space-base shooter using C++, AI behavior trees, dynamic animations, sound effects, automatic doors, and survival mechanics.
