To me, teaching students is one of the most rewarding parts of being a philosopher. It is a privilege to mentor them during an important time in their lives, helping them gain skills that will help them not just in college, but through the rest of their careers—skills like curiosity, clarity in communication, charity in disagreement, and the confidence to speak their mind.

Graduate Teaching

I’ve been a graduate teaching assistant for a range of undergraduate courses, from introductory courses in ethics, the philosophy of religion, and the philosophy of mind to advanced courses in bioethics and the ethics of technology. I’ve also completed the Kaufman Teaching Certificate Program offered by MIT’s Teaching and Learning Lab.

Outreach Teaching

Corrupt the Youth is a philosophy outreach program, seeking to bring philosophy to high school students from historically marginalised communities.

I’ve served as a volunteer instructor with Corrupt the Youth - Boston since their pilot year in 2021-22, teaching classes on topics including democratic backsliding, the ethics of war, the history of dehumanisation and genocide, and the ethics of consent and forgiveness.

In 2023-24, I served as the director of the Boston chapter. In that capacity, I designed a semester-long curriculum for weekly lessons in a Global Issues class, incorporating topics such as animal rights, democratic backsliding, protest ethics, cybersecurity, AI ethics, and the moral and political implications of ongoing global conflicts.
