What Students Are Saying
“Sasha's unique perspective, willingness to experiment with the dynamics of a classroom and her high standards and challenging coursework and discussion topics make her an outstanding professor. I've been challenged in ways I didn't know I could be challenged as a graduating senior in an undergraduate program.”
— Logic of Political Inquiry, Spring 2018
“I've never had a professor so dedicated and excited to be in the classroom and interact with students. We need ten more professors like Sasha.”
— Political Science Through Science Fiction, Spring 2019
“Sasha pushed me to my limits. Her class was the single most impactful and shaping experience I have had in college. I will remember what I learned in this course for the rest of my life. Challenging and unconventional, Sasha’s teaching style brought out my best as a student.”

— Intro to IPE, Spring 2018
“I'm a STEM major, so this course really challenged me to critically think in a way that I have never done so before. Sasha is so on top of the work and truly cares about each one of her students….This course is so amazing and I'm definitely recommending it to all of my peers, especially with Sasha! She's the best!!”
-Political Systems of the World, Spring 2020
“I had a blast taking this course!”
-Intro to IPE, Fall 2021
“Sasha's Learner Centered teaching style is a revolutionary form of pedagogy. I have never taken a class that teaches HOW to go about learning the material in addition to the material itself. This teaching style seems like it really could translate to any and all other fields as well. As far as I am concerned, this class has prepared me to be an effective lifelong learner about anything I will ever find interest in.”
-Theories of Capitalism, Fall 2022
“Sasha's incorporation of modern teaching methods shows she really cares about her students. Additionally she facilitates critical thinking skills and actual learning within her classes. This is the gold standard for how education should be in America.”
