Maria (Masha) Tackett

Hailing from Siberia, Russia, Maria uses her experience in class discussions, giving students an opportunity to see the effect of Economics on the everyday lives of people not only in the U.S. but also in other countries. Maria strives for her students to gain skills they would be able to use after the class is over, be it upper-level courses, internships, jobs, or understanding how the economy works and making decisions based on the knowledge in various aspects of their lives.
