Teaching is my favorite part of the profession. I believe our role is to give students the tools to think with unbiased, analytical rigor. I have taught at MIT, Princeton, and in the New Jersey prison system. I teach Graeco-Roman philosophy (at both the undergraduate and graduate levels), Indian philosophy, feminist philosophy, early modern philosophy, and introduction to philosophy.
My lecture, 24.01 “Classics of Western Philosophy,” has the highest course evaluation of any 24.01 taught at MIT in the past 18 years.
Here are my complete teaching evaluations for all courses for which I was sole instructor. I reproduce them verbatim and omit nothing. My evaluation average for courses at MIT has been 6.85/7. For courses at Princeton it was 4.7/5.
My syllabus for the lecture 24.01 “Classics of Western Philosophy” is here. Also here is a recent upper-level undergraduate course on Indian and Graeco-Roman philosophy. Finally, here is the syllabus of my recent graduate course on Aristotle
