Teaching Methodology (Ages 13-15)
Engaging in small group settings (with a maximum of 8 students, often fewer) ensures ample quality time with instructors. Through interactive sessions, our educators will navigate participants through fundamental concepts in neuroscience, assigning practice tasks to bolster comprehension and skills. Group collaboration, independent research, and homework discussions enrich the learning experience, facilitated by the intimacy of small classes that encourage participation and peer-to-peer learning.
Teaching Methodology (Ages 16-17 & 18-24)
Embrace the Oxford approach with tutorial-style teaching, where expert tutors nurture self-directed learning and critical thinking in interactive seminars within small groups (limited to 8 students). Throughout the course, participants undertake two independent pieces of work, meticulously evaluated in personalised 1:1 or 2:1 tutorials. These sessions offer a platform for constructive feedback and discourse, allowing students to gain fresh perspectives from peers and tutors. Upon completion, participants receive a certificate and a personalised letter of recommendation from their tutor.
