The tutorial is Oxford's own invention: a very small room, a position to defend, and someone who will press you on it. We teach children aged 7 to 18 that way, online, in groups of three to seven, and our teachers are the people who came through it.
Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for me — this is no exaggeration: you’re like an angel sent from above who rescued me from a sea of frustration and confusion.
I was just notified yesterday that I’ve been awarded the Jardine Scholarship. Once again, I am deeply thankful for your help through my application and interview preparation!
After attending Project Agora’s classes, my child made significant progress. We’re so grateful for such an amazing centre!
Thank you, Project Agora teachers, for your love and guidance for my daughter all along the way. Your help has been instrumental in getting her into a UK medical school.
Dear Project Agora teachers, I received an offer from Cambridge last night. Thank you so much for your help!
Thank you for your dedication to our education over the past three years. My vocabulary may not be enough to express my gratitude.
We are lucky to have you as my two girls’ teacher. She received at least three offers from UK universities.
Project Agora is the best English learning centre I’ve ever come across — my favourite of every place I’ve studied.
You made this the one course I looked forward to most every week — always full of energy, always understanding each one of us.
I’ve just received offers from two courses at Imperial! I couldn’t have gotten in without your help with my personal statement.
Thank you for everything you’ve dedicated over the past three years! I will miss you very much — and those Saturday classes.
Kat lives in Oxford: a DPhil candidate in Education, holder of an Oxford MSc in Applied Linguistics, published first author on how children acquire language, and a qualified teacher twice over through PGCE and CELTA. Caroline holds an Oxford Master’s in English as a Clarendon Scholar. Our founder took her doctorate at Oxford on a Clarendon scholarship.
Not facts to repeat. A child learns to take a position, support it, hear it dismantled, and rebuild it better. That is why our students reach the John Locke Institute shortlist and the TED-Ed stage, and why parents tell us the change shows up first in how their child argues at dinner.
An Oxford child sits with peers in Hong Kong, Singapore, Sydney and Shanghai. They argue the same motion from genuinely different starting points, which is the part a local tutor cannot reproduce.
Hong Kong is seven to eight hours ahead, so our Hong Kong weekday evenings fall during the Oxford school day. Oxford families join the weekend groups, which sit at a comfortable morning or early afternoon. The exact group is set after the interview.
Really from Oxford. Kat is an Oxford DPhil candidate living in the city, Caroline holds an Oxford Master’s in English as a Clarendon Scholar, and the founder holds an Oxford doctorate in Education, also as a Clarendon Scholar. William holds an Oxford MSc in Applied Linguistics and lectures in London.
Neither, really. It is closer to a university tutorial: writing, discussion and public speaking, taught so a child thinks for themselves. Exam results tend to follow, but they are not the point.
Book a free online interview through the booking box on our home page. Nothing to prepare. Your child comes for a thirty-minute conversation and we advise you honestly.
