The Ancient Greek Sophists (Greek Philosophy)

[autowagon]

I'm 39 and I geek out on the internet trying to learn and develop my mind. You sir, are a breath of fresh air. Most lecturers on the internet about these subjects become annoyingly wrong or obviously obfuscating (to a person not new to these subjects) within a few minutes, and thus an irritation to listen to. You're bad ass teacher. Just thought I'd say so.

This semester I am taking Classics of Political Thought with a professor who taught at Harvard, so I expected a memorable learning experience. However, he is explaining the topic during the 1st hour of the 3 hour-course, and then he is showing us different videos on the same topic. I am always pissed with that because I think a teacher shows videos for 2/3 of the class when he or she doesn't have the ability to make a lecture engaging enough. During one of the classes he showed us a video made by you and that's how I found your channel and I am so happy about it. God, I WISH I WAS IN YOUR CLASS!!! You are delivering the most important concepts using simple vocabulary and accessible examples and your lecture is so structured. I also enjoy the X vs Y comparison tables. Now I am preparing for my midterm and your videos are very helpful. I want to say a big THANK YOU! It's obvious you love what you are doing and YOU ARE SO GREAT AT DOING IT! Keep posting! Greetings from Prague, Czech Republic.

That was beautiful, it seemed like those students were trying to leave, but i can't imagine why you had such an interesting lecture. I could definitely see you at a major University! So captivating! It could just be the material you were covering (for being so interesting) but I still appreciate you for teaching so clearly!!!

Man! I have never had anyone who made me interested into philosophy! I wish I had you as my professor!

Watching you teach with students in the room is really helpful—nurse pass—room temp—students thinking and blurting—acknowledging awesomeness (sticker). Way to go .

Great Lesson. You carry very good command presence in the classroom; a sight less seen today.

I think this was a fantastic lecture. I listen to it during my commute and the one thing I couldn’t get out of my head was that this professor sounded exactly like Ted Lasso. Man I had the best time getting taught philosophy by Ted lasso. 10/10!

You've really helped me study for my philosophy test! My professor goes off on tangents (off topic) and I feel like I haven't learned anything! Thank you so much for posting this.
