“We cannot teach people anything. We can only help them discover it within themselves.” – Galileo Galilei
Teaching is what brought Colin to academia and it continues to both challenge and enlighten. His passion is evident in the classroom, where he is excited to teach Advanced Personal Selling at Auburn University! In 2024, he was honored to win the Harbert College of Business Excellence in Teaching Award, which was even more humbling after winning the departmental teaching award in 2023. He is always trying to bring new innovations and techniques to the classroom, and he is proud to have won these honors! Previously he taught four classes: 1. Foundations of Professional Sales 2. Sustainability & Marketing 3. Global Consulting Prep 4. International Consulting Regardless of the course, Colin's goal in the classroom is simple: help students get jobs and start their careers. This goal varies in implementation across the courses, but it involves making the classroom interactive, individual, and always striving to improve. |
