“This is one of the best econ classes I've taken. I like how the lecture slides are posted and the videos are easy to access. I appreciate that the instructor gives us lots of time to work on the homework assignments. I really appreciate the exam reviews and that the instructor is very clear about what to expect.”

“I really enjoyed this class. I believe that this course is laid out how I would want any course to be. I believe that the material is presented nicely, study sessions help tremendously, and the course is laid out properly. I would've taken courses like this one all throughout college if I could. Thank you for being a perfect instructor and making it all so clear to understand.”
