A hundred thousand welcomes, friends!

I'm passionate about online learning and instructional design. I hope you find my courses easy to navigate, informative, and entertaining. 

I adore literature, especially colonial and postcolonial texts and historical fiction.

In my "spare time" I enjoy spending time with my seven children ages 22-2 and learning languages, particularly endangered languages. The greeting above is in my native language, Gàidhlig (Scottish Gaelic) a minority language spoken in Scotland. I also speak Gaeilge (Irish Gaelic) and Spanish and am learning Hawaiian. 

Contacting Me:

• I respond to emails within 24 hours on weekdays and within 48 hours on weekends. 

• Always email me at my school address: cmatheson@bmcc.cuny.edu

• Throughout the semester, I will host office hours via Zoom.

• I am happy to schedule a private online meeting for anyone who cannot attend our weekly office hours.

• As an online professor, I do not have an on-campus office.
