I hold a Ph.D. in Political Science/International Relations from McGill University and have over 20 years of university teaching experience at McGill, the University of British Columbia, the University of Amsterdam, and other leading institutions. Throughout my career, I have taught both undergraduate and graduate students, supervised theses, and served as an academic advisor at different universities, guiding students through their academic and professional development. In addition to teaching, I am a published author and scholar, with several books, research articles, and policy analyses to my credit. I have also presented my work at major international conferences, and my research is widely recognized in both academic and policy circles. This background enables me to bring the latest debates, case studies, and methodologies into my tutoring sessions, helping students connect theory with real-world issues.
