Christian has taught BUS360W at SFU for 12 years, and BUS201 for five years, since returning to BC following over a decade of teaching various courses in Taiwan, ROC. He currently serves as the course coordinator for BUS360W, and also coordinates the Beedie Writing Mentors program: a volunteer service in which trained undergraduate students assist other undergrads to improve their communication skills.
