Reading and Writing Series

Reading, Analyzing, and Discussing Philosophical Texts
๏ปฟ
This is the ๐ฅFIRST EVER READING SERIES WHERE WE BLEND READING & WRITING WITH PHILOSOPHY๐ฅ in Schoolhouse! Contains ๐ฅINTENSIVE READING BEFORE SESSIONS and INTENSIVE DISCUSSING IN SESSIONS! It will be a ๐ฅgreat way to boost your reading & writing skills๐ฅ from SAT to physics, and will also ๐ฅhelp quench your thirst for philosophic discussion๐ฅ.
๏ปฟ
Here you can:
- improve your reading comprehension skills and your proficiency in using logic -- both of which are essential for the SAT -- through reading and discussing selected primary texts by notable philosophers of a diverse span across time and topic, using beginner-friendly anthologies (collections of primary texts) as a guide.
- learn about how to write argumentative texts and how to argue effectively, again by learning from past philosophers.
- learn to appreciate texts and literature
- improve debate skills through the discussions, and gain a basic but high-coverage understanding of philosophy to aid you in producing powerful, thoughtful, and persuasive arguments!
๏ปฟ
Sessions will start with short lectures by the tutor(s) on the basics of the primary text of the session. Here, we will discuss the readings and cover reading comprehension through Q&A and check-your-understanding comprehension questions. Then, the remaining portion of time will be devoted to guided/moderated, Socratic discussions on the primary text, where participants can present their ideas and arguments and interact with each other.
Reading all of the selected text before the sessions is suggested for the best experience. We will also read excerpts from the text for discussion purposes.
