‘Greta is a wonderful tutor. She brings and sustains the same level of commitment and interest to everyone’s work. She is above all fair. She has a confidence in her responses to the work which is very helpful. She works hard. The cooperative and respectful atmosphere she generates is essential. She’s always prepared. Her modesty and openness are very beneficial to the work. I always feel I’m in safe hands but also expert hands.’
