Abstract: Microeconomics is a core course in economics and a core course for senior undergraduate and graduate students of economic management. At present, there is no unified understanding of the teaching content of microeconomics, and the teaching content of each teaching class is quite different and unclear, which is not conducive to the cultivation of students. On the basis of clarifying the course characteristics of microeconomics, it is found that there are misunderstandings in the current teaching, such as the theory being directly applied to practice, blindly relying on mathematical models to solve economic problems and microeconomics is concise and easy to understand. Finally, this article puts forward the teaching reform methods and ideas.
