Oxford MPhil, Westminster School teacher, 3yrs tutoring
I tailor my tutoring style to suit the student and subject, though my starting point is always questions, prompts and guiding steers rather than a lecture.
Lessons with older students will often follow the format of an Oxford tutorial, beginning from a discussion of a topic or source material (whether the student's essay or a set text) and then moving into application of that knowledge through note-making, essay planning or interrogation of another text.
