Teaching

POSTGRADS

I've participated in more than a dozen PhD defenses. Here are the students for whom I was a primary or a regular advisor: Bill D'Alessandro (PhD 2017), Marziye Lotfi (PhD 2022), Hashem Morvarid (PhD 2023), and Tingjiang Kuang (PhD 2026). I'm currently the second supervisor for Sadik Ameer and Nicola Weiss. I'm also involved in the supervision of Gustavo Cilleruelo Calderón, a member of the NLP group in the School of Informatics. We recently wrote this together.

UNDERGRADS

I often teach classes in the philosophy of language and in the philosophy of mind (e.g., Y4: Language Models and Virtual Worlds). Somewhat less often, though still fairly regularly, I teach logic. Occasionally, I teach metaphysics (e.g., Y2: Mind, Matter, and Language). Materials (including course guides, lecture notes, practice problem sets, study guides, and official homework) for recent courses are available here.
