Teaching
My teaching in the Oxford School of Global & Area Studies, University of Oxford, has included teaching seminars on a postgraduate Chinese Studies research methods course, and co-convening research proposal workshops for Chinese Studies MSc students. Additionally, I have been involved in grading Chinese Studies MSc dissertations, and was a student advisor for masters and doctoral students at St Antony's College, Oxford, in 2023–2024.
Between August 2019 and January 2022, I was an adjunct lecturer in the Department of Anthropology at Brooklyn College, City University of New York (CUNY); and from January 2020 until January 2022, I was also an adjunct lecturer in the Department of Anthropology, Gender Studies, and International Studies at the City College of New York, CUNY.
At CUNY, I generally taught three different courses to four different sections (classes) per 14-week semester, and was responsible for course design, all teaching and assessment, for around 100–120 students per semester; additionally, I taught one intensive four-week summer course.
At the City College of New York, I was invited to propose and teach new courses, three of which were accepted:
- INTL 31919: Rethinking Development
- ANTH 31977–INTL 31977: Picturing Development
- ANTH 31958–INTL 31956: Minorities and Sociocultural Change in Western China
Three of the courses I taught at Brooklyn College and the City College of New York were previously established courses that allowed instructors to significantly reinterpret them by changing course readings according to individual experience and research interests:
- INTL 30500: Global Social Theory
- ANTH 20100: Cross-Cultural Perspectives
- ANTH 1105: Comparative Studies in Cultures and Transformation
