Experience

  • New York Institute of Technology

    Adjunct Assistant Professor

    I am teaching CORE curriculum classes Foundations of Inquiry. this is an introduction to liberal arts for engineering and biomedical students. It is presumed to serve as their window on the Humanities and Social Sciences and their role in the engineering professions and business.

  • CUNY Lehman College

    Adjunct Assistant Professor

    I teach online Russian History class from Late Imperial Russia to the present. I know this material really well as I was born in the Ukraine and did my PhD on this period of Russian History. Teaching online is challenging because you do need to attend to many of the student needs and requests. I use Power Point lectures but also source discussions to train students in the arts of historical analyses and interpretation.

  • LaGuardia Community

    Adjunct Assistant Professor

    I teach Western Civilization Classes to undergraduates from Antiquity to the Present. These are broad and challenging courses that demand erudition and skillful pedagogy from instructors. It took me several years before I could achieve mastery of the subject along with student friendly format of delivery. Having taught these classes I feel I can teach practically anything.

    Law and History Review

    This is a summary of my PhD dissertation dedicated to local government petitions to the Imperial Ruling Senate. Most rulings demonstrate judicial activism of the Senate promoting social and political goals of provincial zemstvo a in Russia. This is an important indication of continuous progressivism of Tsarist bureaucracy from the 1860s to 1914.
