- Social Statistics (Twice)
- Independently taught recitation sessions
- Social Interaction and Culture (Introduction to Sociology course)
- Independently taught an hour-long tutorial for two sections per week
- Inequality and Social Change (Introduction to Sociology course)
- Independently taught an hour-long tutorial for two sections per week
- Work and Inequality

- Family Context of Human Development
Below is some feedback from my students:
-
A student remarked on my Social Statistics recitation: “Manlin’s recitation sessions were very helpful, and she did an amazing job explaining difficult statistical concepts!”
-
Students highlighted that my tutorials “created fun and engaging assignments and discussions,” “[were their] favourite discussion class ever,” and “helped [them] understand how to apply what [they] learned to real life.”
-
They also spoke highly of the inclusive learning environment in my tutorials:
-
“During group discussions everyone contributed, and when we came together as a class, everyone felt open to sharing their group’s ideas.”
-
“She [Manlin] made the environment comfortable where we felt we could openly share our thoughts.”
