This is a question Awesome teachers

Teachers have been getting a right kicking recently and it's not fair. So, let's hear it for the teachers who've inspired you, made you laugh, or helped you to make massive explosions in the chemistry lab. (Thanks to Godwin's Lawyer for the suggestion)

Cambridge
This sounds like Cambridge. They do that kind of crap there - the 'teaching' comes in the tutorials, where the victims and the prof discuss the essay. Something like Socratic methods, I believe although you'd have to find a full-qualified Cambridge fag to get the full QT.

It wasn't far off
I had the same guy a year later for a literature course, and he explained that there's no point him "teaching" first years because they don't have anything to base his lectures on, and he believed that if he spent an hour presenting a digested version, then no-one would take the time to do the required reading.

I hated him for it at the time, but I'll admit it worked.
