Teaching Philosophy
My teaching philosophy centres on creating value beyond knowledge transfer. I design courses where students:
- Build social connections through collaborative discussions and peer networks
- Develop critical thinking through structured, memorable lectures
- Gain hands-on experience applying marketing concepts to real problems they encounter daily
- Discover passion for using marketing to solve societal challenges
I believe students should feel that missing class means missing valuable perspectives they cannot find elsewhere.
