The Tutorial Model: Learning the Oxford Way

Most Courses Focus on Content Coverage.

We Train Students to Wrestle with Big Ideas.

Many students can read the book, write the essay, ace the test—and still miss the deeper opportunity to:

  • Wrestle with big ideas.

  • Defend their beliefs thoughtfully.

  • Grow as thinkers, writers, and communicators.

At Trinity House Tutorials, we believe students deserve more than information. They deserve the chance to engage deeply, argue well, and integrate their faith into their learning.

C.S. Lewis, one of the most influential Christian thinkers of the modern era, did not learn through lectures alone. His education was shaped by the Oxford tutorial system, where learning happens through rigorous one-on-one or small group conversation, critical writing, and meaningful dialogue.

How Do You Train A Great Thinker?

The way C.S. Lewis was trained.

[T]he best teaching can be done only when there is a direct individual relationship between a student and a good teacher.
— Richard Feynman

The tutorial method offers precisely that kind of relationship—calling students not just to absorb information, but to wrestle with it, question it, and make it their own in conversation.
