Teaching

​

I teach contemporary French and Francophone literature, comparative literature, visual culture, and writing, while also teaching French language across levels and institutional contexts. Over the past decade, I have taught in North America, France, and the United Arab Emirates, in settings that range from French and Francophone studies to political humanities, media studies, art schools, and liberal-arts literature programs. This breadth has allowed me to teach both survey and specialized courses, and to work with students across different levels, disciplines, and academic cultures.

​

My teaching is grounded in close reading, visual analysis, writing, and discussion. I want students to become sharper readers and more confident interpreters: attentive to form, historically informed, and able to move from observation to argument. In different settings, I have combined literary study with collaborative annotation, project-based assignments, creative adaptation, museum teaching, and thesis supervision. Whether I am teaching language, literature, or cultural analysis, I aim to create courses that are intellectually demanding, clear in their expectations, and genuinely supportive of student growth.
