Teaching

Read my short book on the Cambridge supervision system, called 'How to define an elephant'!
The book is also available as a PDF.

Supervisions are an ancient teaching system used by Cambridge and Oxford, in which students interact in very small groups (usually 2 or 3) with a subject tutor. I used to supervise many undergraduate courses at Cambridge.


Students and interns

1advised: I contributed nontrivially to the supervision of the student, but was not the primary supervisor.
