The high points of my teaching philosophy are that I expose students to the range of views in economics and the evidence supporting them, so that students can see the wide range of the field and form their own conclusions. I encourage them to write in Economics so that they can express their own views, develop statistical evidence, cite authorities, present historical examples and use institutional information. I encourage them to speak up in class to share their ideas. 

I am constantly assessing my work via problem sets, tests, and in-class assignments so that I can find the most effective teaching methods. 

I apply a sense of humor and tell stories to keep students involved and give them cases they can remember.
