As lecturer he has taught in several courses and supervised more than 60 students in their master, bachelor and internship thesis projects. He is increasingly experimenting new teaching techniques, such as action-based teaching and gamification. Both techniques are based on a more interactive way to engage with students. Action-based teaching is related to the idea of directly exposing students to research topics and activities, to let them explore and experience interactions with key stakeholders, thus combining theoretical learning with application and action. Gamification is a principle used in learning processes which relies on using elements from games to increase student’s engagement in the classroom. List of courses/teaching experience:

  • Sustainable Enterprise Economy
  • Economics for Managers
  • Institutional Economics and Economic Organization Theory
  • Organization of Agribusiness
  • Organizational Behaviour and Business Management
  • Environmental Management and Industry
  • Circular Economy: Theory and Practice
