Advert description
I studied a three-year undergraduate programme on Philosophy and Economics at London School of Economics and Political Science. During my three years of study, I chose a wide range of Philosophy options, including Formal Methods of Logic, Classical Philosophy, Philosophy of Economics, Public Policy& Organizational Ethics. I choose such a combination of courses according to my understanding of studying, which I divide the knowledge acquired into two parts: (1) practical knowledge that I practice from time to time for better reproduction, and (2) the understanding of things such as the principle of research for different disciplines, the angle which a school of subject adopts to explain and analyse phenomena, and methodological resemblances revealed in different sciences. For example, instrumentalism in economics leads to an operationalist explanation of utility, and functionalism in psychology studies. For example, the idea of reductionism used in Physics to formulate the ideal gas law resembles the method of the representative individual in Economics, and with the effort of some philosophers to deal with the mind/body problem with the help of neuroscience findings. Each time I read essays and papers that offer explanations for the underlying reasons behind a pattern, a trend, a common sense, or a historical event while debating and responding to each other at the same time, I feel concrete, substantial happiness derived from the increased confidence in the belief that this world is understandable, from an abstruse feeling of progress. Sometimes, by applying the first category of knowledge, I get a similar feeling of getting the key to a successful try. At that time, the rigid, stiff knowledge dances. There is always a moment in my future study when the patterns and trends I learned in the past help me comprehend the current concept much more quickly. Curiosity leads to comprehension and more considerable curiosity, which brings progress and happiness.
I want to share this happiness and my learning efficiency at the same level with students, enabling them to pursue their own goals effectively and passionately. My communication skills proved in the National Debate Competition, and my attention to detail, proved in my private tutoring experience, can make the deliverance.
