About Greene’s Estoril

The story of learning in Oxford reaches back almost a thousand years – and Greene’s is part of that long narrative. Greene’s College Oxford in Estoril was established in 2015 to develop this tale further, bringing the tutorial method to Portugal.

The Story of Greene’s

A 21st Century Education: Preparing you for the 22nd.

The quirkiness of the spelling of ‘Greene’s’ stems from our founder’s (Edward’s) family name in the 18th century, and is recognisable as the surname of one of England’s well-known 20th century novelists, Graham Greene – Edward’s family relative. Soon after Edward established Greene’s in Oxford in 1967, we moved to our current 17th century buildings in Pembroke Street, in the heart of the city, surrounded by university colleges, inspiring architecture and eminent academics.

Many of our tutors are graduates of either the Universities of Oxford or Cambridge, and our students are taught through the tutorial method, the highly effective approach to teaching adopted by both universities through many centuries.

Greene’s is the oldest tutorial college in Oxford, indeed quite possibly in the U.K., and throughout its history has only changed owners once. In 2015, Greene’s opened its first sixth form centre outside of Oxford in Portugal.

To be able to monitor your academic progress, we have created a bespoke, in-house student online resource called Greene’s Online. It is a system that allows you to see the status and progress of your studies anywhere and at anytime, in real time.

Guiding, Mentoring: Educating.

The history of Greene’s Tutorial College goes back to 1967 when Edward Greene founded a small tutorial college known as Edward Greene’s Tutorial Establishment in the seventeenth-century buildings of 45, Pembroke Street in Oxford.

Since then, over 15,000 students have been taught at Greene’s at various stages of their education.
