As an Instructor of Record at the University of Oregon, I work closely with students to help them achieve personal academic goals and organize graduate employee grading. Entering Fall 2020, I have taught solely and assisted in teaching 4 undergraduate classes a total of 8 times, in person and online. Enrollment ranges from small groups of 16 students to large classes of 85 students.
As an educator in economics, I aim to create an inclusive environment where students are able to apply quantitative & graphical skills, economic intuition, and economic theory to understand the evolving real-world issues, news, and events. I pride myself in helping students with developing economic tools to problem solve and being available to assist students outside of class whenever the need arises.

Student Comments:
"Worked hard to make sure students understood the material. Made it evident that she cares and wants students to be successful. Was very reachable outside of the classroom. ... Powerpoints were put together well. In-class problems correlated well with exam materials. Quizzes were good indicators of how well students know the chapter." -- Taylor Athan
"Honestly, this instructor is one of my favorite instructor so far. She's so kind and when we have a quiz to midterm, she told us lots of details that we should focus on. Her class is interesting and I really like it." -- Pengfei Qin
"Xiang does a great job helping students understand course material. She also shares cool information that helps students learn more about the topic, such as interesting economics podcasts. ... I think the course was really well organized. It was very helpful to have weekly practice problems which kind of served as optional homework, to help students practice course material. That helped me a lot with remembering things learned." -- Marie Rose Tonguino

"Xiang did a great job of being clear about what was required for this course. Her lectures were informative." -- Tyler Hanson
"Professor Li was very good at getting through a lot of material in each class period." -- Sean Vermilya
Instructor was helpful in clarifying course material (during office hours) on various occasions. She was accessible, approachable, and seemed passionate about her students' success.
Xiang Li was very supportive and understanding when emergency issues arose during the quarter. She was very helpful in explaining what was expected of the students.
I have never had a teacher as on top of posting Canvas as this class. Did an excellent job in communicating assignments and posting them quickly after class.
