I began my teaching career in 2010 after obtaining my master's degree, working at Nawroz University in the Law Department. There, I taught Kurdish studies in several colleges and departments, including the College of Administration and Economics, the College of Engineering, the English Department, and the Law Department itself. This diversity contributed to a multifaceted academic experience, as I interacted with students from various scientific and humanities disciplines, enhancing my ability to adapt the curriculum to the specific nature and knowledge requirements of each field.
Later, when I moved to the Department of International Relations, my experience expanded to include teaching courses of a political and intellectual nature, such as Kurdish studies, political research methodology, and political developments in contemporary Iraq. This provided me with the opportunity to engage with issues of political thought and contemporary historical transformations, while also developing students' skills in analysis, critique, and academic research.
Since 2021, after transferring to the University of Duhok, College of Education, Department of History, my teaching has focused on historical subjects, including Islamic civilization, ancient European history, and historical research methodology. This shift was a natural extension of my interest in historical knowledge and academic methodology, especially as I pursued doctoral studies. This experience positively impacted the development of my teaching methods and the integration of academic material with modern research.
The significance of this experience lies in its combination of intellectual diversity and academic continuity. It has reinforced my conviction that university teaching is not merely an educational process, but a scholarly and cultural responsibility aimed at preparing a generation equipped with critical awareness, research and analytical skills, and the ability to contribute to society and knowledge.
