Teaching

Teaching Experiences:

I strive to meet students where they are, helping them see how abstract economic ideas connect to real-world questions, while fostering critical thinking about evidence, values, and the role of AI in learning. I received NYU GSAS Teaching Certificate “The Art & Craft of Teaching” in 2024.

Here are some highlights and a word cloud from my students’ feedback

- Yucheng is an EXTREMELY thorough TA. He is extremely smart and is capable of explaining hard concepts in simple terms to help us understand. Despite the class being difficult, recitations with yucheng has been so helpful in my learning and Ihope I can have him for future Econ classes.
- very accessible and helpful

- Yucheng was very effective at breaking down difficult topics into smaller chunks thatwere simpler to understand.

- the summer term is short and we learn everything is a pretty quick path, but the instructor still made every concept clear and easy to understand.

- Yucheng was helpful and offered to meet with me outside of his office hours when I was struggling to grasp a concept, he wants to help us succeed.
