Teaching
To support students in writing their first academic papers and to complement classroom teaching and one-on-one consultations, my colleagues Dr. Friedrich Arndt and Dr. Judith Gurr and me developed and produced the three-part screencast series "Theoretisch Fragen" [Questions in Theory, language: German]. These screencasts help students to find adequate topics for their essays and papers in political theory, to reflect on their methodological approaches, and above all to ask analytic and concise questions.

From summer term 2012 until summer term 2016
Teaching on theories of democracy and justice, particularly on International Political Theory at the Institute of Political Science at Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg. In addition, teaching on methods and techniques of academic research and writing in the context of the Franco-German programme of studies Applied Political Science (Angewandte Politikwissenschaft, IEP Aix-en-Provence-Freiburg University).
From March 2013 to October 2015, I participated in the further education programme on university didactics at the University of Freiburg. By conducting a project on teaching basic methodological competences in political theory in one of my seminars, I completed the programme and obtained the Baden-Württemberg-Zertifikat für Hochschuldidaktik (certificate of university didactics issued by the land Baden-Württemberg).
