Teaching

Teaching is a central part of my intellectual life. My teaching experience comes from a variety of places: US universities and liberal arts colleges (NYU, Columbia, Barnard), UK Universities (Oxford, UCL), and prisons.

Besides various topics in Ancient Greek philosophy, I taught on several other subjects: metaphysics, logic, philosophy of language, philosophy of logic, philosophy of mind, epistemology, Kant, history of ethics, introduction to philosophy, introduction to political philosophy, and freedoms.

When possible, I integrate standard teaching methods with less standard ones. These include puppet shows, as well as newspaper articles and film-making assignments.
