Teaching Experience
I have been a teaching assistant/tutor since 2017, and have also begun to teach as a part-time lecturer since 2024. As someone well-trained in literary, cultural as well as critical theory in the context of world literature since undergraduate days, I have acquired not only academic knowledge but also teaching skills in the discipline. Despite my relatively short teaching career, my commitment and passion have earned me respect and appreciation from my students. For they enjoy the self-empowerment, flexibility, and creativity in my classes that help them develop their own set of skills and critical thinking tools.
