Lecturing and Tutoring at Universify

Our tutors provide Universify’s participants with an insight into what undergraduate study at university entails and support them in preparation for their GCSE exams.

We have two categories of tutoring in our programme:

  1. Taster lesson tutors deliver a seminar-style lesson on their subject to introduce participants to the breadth and depth of undergraduate study;

  2. GCSE revision tutors deliver revision classes in Maths, English or Science during our Spring residential to help participants prepare for their upcoming GCSE exams.

Taster classes

Taster lesson tutors provide participants with an authentic experience of studying their subject at undergraduate-level. Tutors design a 60-minute class on a subject of their choice. Whether it is an introduction to the Hippocratic oath in Medicine, exploring the History of Film, or debating moral questions in Philosophy and Ethics, teaching is a chance to share your passion for your subject to ignite enthusiasm in the next generation of university students.

We run taster lessons throughout our summer course and at our Spring course. Previous classes include Moral Philosophy, Migration Studies, Astrophysics, Material Sciences, Biochemistry and more!

GCSE revision

As a Universify teacher on our Spring revision weekend you will deliver intensive revision sessions in Maths, English or Science to help our students achieve the best grades possible in their GCSEs.

Revision classes on our 2023 spring course will combine teaching on topics selected by participants prior to the course with sessions focused on exam technique and practice questions. Lessons take place in-person at our partner colleges at the University of Oxford or the University of Cambridge.
