As an instructor, my priority is to make my courses accessible in every possible way. This requires (among other things) seeking measures to provide an inclusive learning environment; favoring coursepacks and affordable anthologies; and correctly assessing the progression of students, for instance by adjusting the assigned readings. I am also keen to experiment with new teaching methods and practices.

Here are some recent courses I taught:

At Douglas College:

• PHIL1101: Critical Thinking (fall 2021)
• PHIL1121: Medical Ethics (fall 2021)
• PHIL1122: Business Ethics (fall 2021)

At Kwantlen Polytechnic:

• PHIL1110: Confronting Moral Issues: Introduction to Ethics (Kwantlen Polytechnic, summer 2021)
• PHIL3033: Business Ethics (Kwantlen Polytechnic, winter 2021)

My students and I are exploring a wide range of issues arising in business ethics. We navigate through theoretical issues such as understanding the moral responsibility of a corporation, rethinking capitalism, or making sense of our obligations and rights as employer/employee. We are also analyzing concrete issues as diverse and relevant as the use of big data by social media platforms, resource extraction in Indigenous territories, self-driving cars, and biases in the workplace. 

At the University of British Columbia:

• PHIL334: Sex, Gender and Philosophy (University of British Columbia, fall 2020)​

It has been extremely rewarding to teach feminist perspectives on gender and sexuality. My students and I started the semester by considering examples of different approaches to feminism and gender, specifically in: liberal feminism; radical feminism; Marxist/socialist feminism; intersectionality; Black feminism; and feminist phenomenology. Building on these conceptual distinctions, we turned to some important topics in the philosophy of sex and sexuality, such as: sexual objectification; heteronormativity and sexual preferences; queer theory; transfeminism; science and sexuality. We made the most of the fall 2020 semester by welcoming three excellent guest speakers: Lutze Segu, Isha Mathur, and Alison Wylie. We also successfully held two workshops on sex work and on race and sexual preferences that led to some fruitful exchanges.

• PHIL315: Philosophy in the 18th Century (University of British Columbia, winter 2020)

​
At McGill University:

• PHIL360: 17th Century Philosophy (McGill University, fall 2016)

My assignments, teaching materials, and course evaluations are available upon request.

And here are more syllabi:
