The tutorial method adopted by Greene’s is fantastic since it gives the tutor a chance to engage with the student on a personal level – something which can be hard to achieve with a larger class. The tutorial method really does allow for extremely rapid improvement; it is so satisfying to see someone suddenly grasp a concept with which they have previously struggled, or to watch them get excited and passionate about the subject as their knowledge of it broadens.

I have always enjoyed teaching and passing on my knowledge to others. Using tutorials allows for teaching to be tailored to one particular student thereby letting them learn in the most focused way possible. And I have seen them grow and develop over time, many of them going on to study at Oxford and other top universities.

The Oxford tutorial method is one of the most distinctive and recognized in the world, as it gives students ample amounts of opportunity to explore their own ideas and discuss them freely without any hesitation with their tutors. And for a passionate teacher like me, this is the best possible way to serve students and in turn society.

I am enthusiastic about teaching, and particularly the tutorial method, because I think it allows for one-on-one interaction and attention to a student’s own individual needs, developing strengths and improving weaknesses, allowing a student to become more independent and responsible for learning at their greatest potential.
