    I just began my self study on Economics. Thank you MIT.OCW for all these free materials.

    Thank you so much, honestly after 7 years of economic studies, I found a professor that really explain the logic behind things. It's a different approach that really could help you understand the deep meaning or deep logic of microeconomics instead of just going straight to definitions and all. It's definitely not a course for anyone, hence why so many confused comments.

    I really appreciate this teacher. He really explains everything so well. I'm not a native English speaker, and I'm still at an upper-intermediate level, but I can still understand everything he's saying. It's very useful, as my microeconomics teacher is quite passive aggressive for no reason, so my mind finds it hard to focus on the lectures. This might be the course that'll save my life in the upcoming exams. This teacher should be the role model. I really love how he thanks the students when they ask a question. He really respects his students. I wish I had a teacher like him.

    After two lectures I can say with confidence that this professor is awesome and anyone would be lucky to have just 1 as good as him during an academic journey.
