philosophy

At the core of my teaching philosophy is the belief that teaching should spark curiosity and a desire for intellectual discovery among students, provide them with the necessary analytical tools to both understand and critically engage with the world around them, and help them convey their ideas in an effective way, both verbally and in writing. To achieve these teaching objectives, I rely on four teaching principles:​
  • ​Experience-driven teaching 
  • The “learning by doing”-approach
  • Working together
  • Political science is what we make of it
