Teaching Expierence 

Since 2017, I have taught many courses on International Relations, International Security, Terrorism and Counterterrorism, Middle East Politics, and other related subjects. 

Some sample evaluations received in the past few years: 

“One of the best professors at LSU! Gave very clear notes and was reachable throughout the entire semester. He was very supportive and understanding and motivated me to try my best.” 

“Prof Tarkhani was an absolute good professor, he always was well prepared for class, he was clear and concise, overall a great professor.” 

“He was understanding of the students' schedules and flexible when necessary. He set clear expectations for exams and other graded assignments. His grading and assessment difficulty was well suited towards the course, especially considering many underclassmen take POLI 2057. He was very respectful of the students and encouraged us to participate.” 

“Very respectful and kind professor. He was very knowledgeable about the subject and encouraged us to think critically.” 

“He is very passionate about what he teaches and truly cares for his students. I can tell how much he wants his students to succeed, and he provides plentiful information for studying!”
