Hello, my name is Nake M. Kamrany and I am a Professor at USC. I've enjoyed teaching Economics at USC for many years and I have received the highest student evaluations consistently.
There are two
keys to my success as a teacher. One, I interject my sense of
humor to my lecture entertaining and teaching concurrently.
That is why I am referred to as a "gifted teacher."
Second, I endeavor to explain highly complex theoretical
structures in simple and understandable form, readily
comprehensible by students.Take my Econ class and find out for yourself. I love to crack
jokes - it makes life interesting!
