Shehryar Qazi

I have over nine years of teaching economics at the college level as an instructor. I have taught intermediate macroeconomics, introductory microeconomics, development economics, corporate finance/banking and political economy. My PhD research was in commercial real estate / urban economics and I am also well versed in various schools of thought within the discipline (Classical Political Economy, Post-Keynesian and Neoclassical). 

I really like to interact with students and answer their questions as well as use real life applications of theory to make the subject come to life. My goal is to not just to have my students succeed in their classes but also for them to find Economics interesting as a form of inquiry and even a lifelong pursuit!
