I teach a variety of literature courses, from entry-level introductions to prose fiction to advanced honours modules in special topics. My regular courses include The Eighteenth-Century Novel; The Eighteenth-Century: Material Cultures; Jonathan Swift; Literature and Philosophy; and Literature and New Worlds, 1590-1750.

Additionally, I supervise the research of both undergraduates (in ISMs and honors theses) and postgraduates (at the MA and the PhD level). While I can best direct research on topics related to eighteenth-century studies, travel literature, early women writers, literature and philosophy, and the history of the novel, I also enjoy supervising students who pursue obliquely related topics (from the medical humanities to post-humanism).
​
Although I have been fortunate to work with a truly gifted set of students at NUS, I have a broad range of other teaching experience: I taught an eccentric cohort of courses as a doctoral student, postdoctoral fellow, and a visiting fellow in various locations (from basic college composition to Shakespeare to modernism). These experiences with diverse sets of students, skill levels, global settings, and university systems have made me, I hope, a more capable, agile, and creative instructor.

Most importantly, perhaps, I am gratified to know that students appreciate my teaching. At NUS, for example, I have been nominated for our faculty-level Teaching Excellence Award (FTEA) in each year that I was eligible to receive it; I was awarded the FTEA in 2014 (for AY2013-14), 2015 (for AY2014-15), and 2021 (for AY2020-21).
