• "The TA Weizheng is always available for students and knows the subject very well. He prepares classes well, and does a great job making sure people are understanding! This is true for both Econometrics and Statistics Camp."

• "Weizheng is, by far, the best TA on the Econ 1st year track. His notes on important part from lectures are great, they highlight the most important part of each lecture;  Demonstrates mastery on all subjects from both Econ623 and Econ624; Kind and helpful on one–on–one interactions, both from discussions and office hours. We are the last cohort to have him as a TA, and I hope the faculty at UMD know how much they are *loosing* when he is gone. Whatever they are paying him is not enough."

• "Weizheng is an excellent TA and teaches difficult topics very well. Discussion sections always help to clarify what we learned in class. Weizheng also does a great job at creating an inclusive environment where students who don't have a strong math background feel like they can also learn and excel in the course."

• "Weizheng was a fantastic TA and I think he has a real talent for teaching. Weizheng was able to explain everything that I didn't understand in lecture clearly and concisely in discussion section. He also did a great job creating an inclusive environment where I could ask any clarifying questions without feeling bad about not knowing these things before."
