I've been working as an assessment and curriculum developer for the past 7 years, where I specialize in the field of Development Economics and Comparative political systems. I have a PhD in Political science and two Master's Degrees, one in International Relations and the other in Business Economics. The uploaded resources are engaging presentations, quizzes, and lessons that I use regularly in my classroom.
