TEACHING EXPERIENCE

During three years of my PhD study, I worked as a guest lecturer at Hull University for four different courses: International Marketing, Research Methods, Marketing Research and, Strategic Marketing and Planning in different semesters.

During my teaching tenure, the majority of the students were from different nationalities and cultural background, therefore it required special support and comfortable learning environment and I usually used electronic sources like YouTube and daily motion videos related to my lecture topics in order to give my students variety of understanding in subject topics with real life examples. My goal was to ensure and maintain the quality of learning within each class, and every student was allowed to ask questions either in the class or drop-in sessions and can knock me on my consultancy hours. Moreover, my teaching focus was mainly depending on examples, which were easy to grasp by students in terms of understanding and most of the students gave positive feedback on this particular strategy at the end of course.

CONFERENCES AND SEMINARS ATTENDED
During my M.Sc. and PhD journey in UK, I attended numerous international and domestic Conferences and Seminars. Due to time limitation, I am not including those here. I will add those later if I will get time.
