Teaching Philosophy

My teaching philosophy aligns with the structure of a typical economics classroom. Like most instructors, I adopt an essentialist approach, covering fundamental analytical methods such as supply and demand, market equilibrium, and utility maximization. However, in more introductory courses, I favor a constructivist approach, incorporating case studies, real-world events, and discussions that develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
