    Default "I taught two units."

    Is the sentence natural to you?

    "I taught two units."

    So something like unit can follow teach? Thank you so much for your help and time as usual.

    Default Re: "I taught two units."

    If a course is divided into several units, it make perfect sense that someone might teach one unit and another person might teach two.
    I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
