Teaching & Coaching

With over a decade of experience teaching at leading universities across Europe, Turkey, and Africa, I bring complex political science concepts to life through engaging courses on democratization, state-building, conflict management, and foreign policy. My teaching approach combines rigorous academic theory with real-world case studies and practical applications.
