Dr. Sonal Dekhane

This is my first official Assistant Professor position here at Georgia Gwinnett College. Prior to this I was a Teaching Assistant at Tulane University and I loved the teaching experience and the connections I made with my students. My students at Tulane University encouraged me the most to choose an academic career. I have met some great students and faculty members at GGC and am enjoying teaching here. My teaching philosophy is simple: "Give a hungry man a fish and you will feed him for a day. Teach a hungry man to fish and you will feed him for life" --- Chinese proverb. This page shows a brief snapshot of my CV.
