Tutoring

I have been a tutor and demonstrator at the School of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Glasgow since September 2023.

This means that I have been taking part and running tutorials for level one and two students pursuing a degree in scientific subjects such as Maths, Statistics, Physics or Chemistry.

More specifically, I have been tutoring the following courses:

• Maths 1 (2023-2024, 2024-2025). This is a first year course designed to help students transition from high school to university level Maths. It covers introductory topics ranging from group theory to basic real analysis. During the tutorials, students are split into groups and work together on weekly questions, with tutors providing support and engaging discussion within the group, as well as giving each group a mark on their work and on their ability to develop a fruitful conversation with one another regarding the solution of the problems.

• Maths 2C - Introduction to Real Analysis (2024-2025). This is a level-two course for students pursuing a degree in Maths. It covers convergence of sequences and series, and basic properties of continuous functions. In the tutorials, students are encouraged to work on fortnightly problems they are assigned, either in groups or on their own. Tutors provide support and guide the students not only towards the answers to the questions, but also towards expressing their thoughts in a more mathematically precise wording.

• Maths 2D - Mathematical Methods and Modelling (2024-2025). This is a level-two course covering basic aspects in the theory of ODEs and dynamical systems, such as the study of equilibrium points and phase portraits, as well as integral transforms. During the tutorials, students are encouraged to work in groups on fortnightly exercise sheets, while tutors provide support and guidance both on solution strategies and on questions regarding the material covered during the lectures.
