Face to face/online and hybrid teaching experience:

Since the beginning of my employment in the higher education I have been involved in the design, preparation, delivery and assessment creation for a number of F2F and online modules both at undergraduate and postgraduate level. I have experience in delivery of the modules through a number of platforms such as: Moodle, Webex or Blackboard. 

Supervised both Honours and Master students. I have also taught overseas on a number of MBA modules. Based on my exprience and knowledge I am able to provide an excellent exprience for students.

Additonally, teaching and supervision of culturally diverse students can be challenging but also extremly interesting as well. I have a record of succesfully helping my students in achievening their potential which has been showed through their very good and excellent grades. 

My expertise and interests range from teaching strategic marketing management, strategic leadership through global marketing, cross-cultural buyers' behaviour to researching cross-border strategic management of funds in Europe.
