Tertiary alcohols cannot be oxidized at all without breaking carbon-carbon bonds, whereas primary alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes or further oxidized to carboxylic acids. ... Oxidizing a primary alcohol only as far as the aldehyde stage is more difficult because of the ease with which aldehydes are oxidized to acids.

Hope it helps
