TEACHING PORTFOLIO

To get a sense of my teaching style and the concepts that guide my classroom work please visit my teaching philosophy. 

I have taught eleven different courses at City College of San Francisco with the unique opportunity to collaborate cross-departmentally between Cinema and Women & Gender Studies Departments. Teaching in this environment provides me the opportunity to work with students from all majors - not just my home department - since almost all of these courses are GE applicable (Humanities and/or Arts).

I designed a course called "analog before digital: punk/no wave film & music" while teaching at the Academy of Art University while writing my Dissertation. This popular course brought together diverse groups of students and encouraged endless iterations of cross-disciplinary collaborations that were a high point of my career. If you are interested in seeing student work please contact me. 

I have extensive experience developing online courses on Canvas, a process that involves research, writing course material, creating quizzes and assignments, sourcing film clips and recording audiovisual aids for American Cinema,International Film History, Focus on Film Noir, Cult Cinema and The Films of Alfred Hitchcock. Concern for accessibility is at the heart of my online and on-site courses.  

If you have any questions about my assignments, courses, and/or teaching philosophy, please contact me.
