I offer over 15 years of diverse teaching experience at the Bachelor, Master, and PhD levels. My courses cover the areas of educational psychology, cognitive psychology, assessment, international large-scale studies, psychological methods & statistics, and other related fields in both English and German. I've taught in various programs, including psychology, teacher education, and educational sciences. 
At University of Luxembourg, I was responsible for the "Research Methods" module in the Bachelor of Psychology Program. In addition to teaching, I have supervised numerous Bachelor, Master, and PhD theses, with a focus on publication-based PhD projects. As Vice-Head of the doctoral school at the Faculty of Social Sciences at University of Luxembourg, I played a key role in establishing a comprehensive doctoral studies program, mandatory for all PhD candidates. Furthermore, I am involved in initiating a new Bachelor program at Technical University Munich on the role of psychology in transforming societies.
My teaching philosophy emphasizes active student engagement, incorporating methods like moderated discussions, problem-based learning, and peer collaboration. I integrate educational technology, learning analytics, and hands-on examples into my teaching, ensuring up-to-date materials and fostering intrinsic motivation for learning. Overall, I view teaching as an integral part of my commitment to an institution, and I am dedicated to fostering positive learning experiences for students.
