Summary: 1. Focus on Author's actual argument, and put into Premise-conclusion form, but maintain philosophical charity. 2. Focus on author's support of the premises (writing less for his uncontroversial ones). 3. To keep in mind: -On quotes: to interpret the argument in your own words. -On Thought experiments: take your time to put in your own words the experiment of the author - On encyclopedias: May be useful to use Encyclopedias, such as the Stanford Encyclopedia, as secondary source of verification (after writing).

Currently taking an extra uni course in greek philosophy, never formally studied philosophy and have only written scientific essay. Finding this channel is an absolute godsend, you're amazing! :)
