Teaching Quantitative Research and Statistical Methods

My teaching focuses on research design, statistical modeling, and quantitative methodology in the social sciences. I have taught courses in statistics, multivariate analysis, structural equation modeling, and research methods across both undergraduate and graduate programs.

Through these courses, I emphasize methodological reasoning, critical evaluation of statistical methods, and the application of quantitative tools to real research questions. My goal is to help students develop the analytical skills necessary to design rigorous studies and interpret complex data.
