Teaching Assistant


International Economics (highest-rated TA) was students' favorite!

F ’17 –W ’25 Teaching Communication

I have extensive teaching experience in economics at UC Davis and the University of British Columbia, covering introductory, intermediate, and upper-division courses in macroeconomics, microeconomics, finance, banking, international finance, East Asian economies, and industrial organization.

My teaching portfolio is here.

  • Served as a teaching assistant for Principles of Macroeconomics at UC Davis across multiple quarters, helping students build foundations in national income accounting, inflation, unemployment, fiscal policy, monetary policy, and economic growth.
  • Supported instruction in Intermediate Macroeconomics over six quarters, working with students on macroeconomic models, consumption and investment theory, business cycles, monetary policy, and open-economy macroeconomics.
  • Taught discussion sections and supported student learning in Intermediate Microeconomics, helping students understand consumer theory, producer theory, market equilibrium, welfare analysis, and strategic decision-making.
  • Assisted upper-division courses in Financial Economics, Money and Banking, and International Finance, connecting economic theory to asset pricing, financial markets, central banking, exchange rates, and global capital flows.
  • Broadened my teaching portfolio through courses on the Economy of East Asia and Industrial Organization, covering regional economic development, firm behavior, competition, market structure, and policy-relevant applications.
  • Developed experience explaining technical economic concepts to students with different levels of preparation, including through grading, office hours, discussion sections, exam review, and one-on-one support.
