Sociology Instructor

Syeda Munazza Ahmad

My name is Munazza Ahmad, and I hold an MPhil in Sociology, completed in 2023 — an academic achievement that reflects both my deep engagement with the subject and my commitment to scholarly excellence.

Over the past two years, I have gained meaningful teaching experience at the undergraduate level, where I have not only delivered lectures but have also been involved in marking midterm examinations. This experience has given me a thorough understanding of academic assessment standards and what it truly takes for students to perform well.

My time in the classroom has reinforced my belief that Sociology is a subject that comes alive when students are encouraged to think critically, question the world around them, and connect theoretical frameworks to real-life social realities. I bring that same energy and intellectual curiosity into every lesson I teach.

My goal is to ensure that every student I work with develops not just a strong grasp of Sociology, but also a genuine appreciation for the way the subject helps us understand the world we live in.
