What’s it like to study finance in your
classroom?
Through practical teaching that encourages
students to be innovative, I aim to create an
environment where they can find the answer
on their own. This way they will create
knowledge and be able to build on it in the
future. This also leads many of my students
to discover their passion for finance.
How does your professional experience
impact your lessons?
In class I often share what I learned about
how the stock markets really function
compared to the models. I use simulations
in every course, and often I ask students
to create an analysis and valuation of a real
M&A deal or a corporation.
