Selected Comments from Students
“I learned a lot about Urban economics taking this class. I was able to understand new concepts and reinforce concepts from previous courses I’ve taken. She is clear and lets us know what topics we should study which is helpful. Overall, I enjoyed taking this class with her over the summer.”
“The instructor was well organized and used class time effectively to cover all of the course’s material. She had good understanding and good verbal skills when it came to explaining graphs.”
“Zhuoyu is a great TA. She explains the material clearly and works through the problems as she’s presenting them, which is a very effective way to teach in my opinion. She is also very approachable and clear with her expectations. I appreciate her approach on teaching us and supplementing material to improve our learning experience, since this course is quite difficult.”
“Zhouyu was a wonderful TA and did a great job at explaining the material to facilitate our understanding. I felt very prepared for assignments and exams. She was very approachable and helpful in providing guidance to any follow-up questions I had.”
“I appreciate the hands-on teaching, I paid greater attention when TA Zhuoyu would work out problems on the whiteboard. I had no problems following along in this class, thank you!”
“Always has an agenda (even when there’s no lab assignment) and has slides for visual learners. TA also answers questions we have.”
“was extremely helpful and accessible in office hours. eager to help and very welcoming.”
