Beedie School of Business lecturer Shafik Bhalloo’s engaging teaching style has won him many admirers in the short time he has taught at the Beedie School – so many, in fact, that it has resulted in him winning the 2013 TD Canada Trust Distinguished Teaching Award.
Bhalloo joined the Beedie School of Business in 2008 as a sessional lecturer, where he teaches classes in commercial law, employment law, and business ethics. Outside of teaching, Bhalloo is a partner at law firm Kornfeld LLP, where he focuses on corporate commercial litigation, general civil litigation, and labour and employment law. In addition, for the last four years he has been an adjudicator on the Employment Standards Tribunal.
The path that ultimately led Bhalloo to teaching at the Beedie School of Business originally began at SFU, where he studied criminology as an undergraduate. It was here that he first considered a career in law, after his interest was piqued while watching trials at the local courthouse. While law would become Bhalloo’s main career focus throughout his life, it was during his time practicing law that he first began to consider the idea of teaching.
