Courses Taught

I have taught a variety of undergraduate Sociology courses as Instructor of Record. Classes range from introductory-level General Education courses (Introduction to Sociology and Intimate Relationships) to upper-level undergraduate courses for majors (Social Interaction and Social Problems).

I have taught ten online courses: seven online only, and three in both face-to-face and online formats.

Teaching evaluations and sample syllabi available on request.
