Personal Statement:
I always approach to teaching with a belief that the sum total of our human knowledge is very much limited, precarious, and still developing.  I also approach to it with great awareness of the possibility of diverse understandings of the same social and natural phenomenon.  Because of it, I believe that students and teacher have to work together to get closer to truer nature of the phenomena.  That's why, I believe, it is not enough for a teacher just to deliver some unknown facts to students.  What a teacher ought to strive to do is to help students develop a perspective with which they can better understand themselves, others, their world and other worlds.  Hopefully, with the understanding we can construct a better world together.
