Statistics and Mathematics for Advancing thinking and logic (University Based Teaching)

This is not your traditional math class! Rather than focusing on rote memorization or rigid formulas, this course emphasizes developing a deeper understanding of mathematical and statistical reasoning. Instead of simply teaching students how to calculate an average (mean), for instance, I will guide them toward discovering how to develop a value that they believe best represents an average. This reflective approach helps students think critically about the meaning and application of mathematical concepts, rather than just performing calculations.

The course prioritizes practical applications over theoretical repetition. You will engage with real-world case studies and utilize modern tools such as MATLAB, R, and Python to solve problems across fields like medicine, social sciences, and business. We will explore statistical reasoning, data analysis, and numerical algorithms, always with the goal of helping students connect these abstract concepts to professional and real-life scenarios.

By encouraging students to question, analyze, and understand the underlying logic of mathematical principles, the course fosters critical thinking and problem-solving skills. By the end, you will not only know how to perform calculations but also understand the "why" behind them, enabling you to apply mathematical reasoning effectively in academic and professional contexts.

About Me

Hello! My name is Tim, and I am currently a Lecturer in Statistics and Psychometric at a UK University. My academic journey has equipped me with expertise in mathematics, statistics, and computational modelling, with a strong focus on their practical applications across various fields, especially in medicine and social sciences.

I hold a PhD in Computational Modelling from the University of Warwick, where my research centered around applying mathematical methods in interdisciplinary contexts. This has given me a deep understanding of both pure and applied mathematics, which I integrate into my teaching. I also hold an MSc in Physics from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, an MSc in Applied Mathematics from Imperial College London, and a BSc in Mathematics and Statistics (First Class Honours) from the University of Plymouth.

In addition to my academic qualifications, I have completed the PGCAP (FHEA Pathway) at the University of Liverpool. This has further refined my teaching practices, allowing me to create inclusive, student-centered learning environments that foster critical thinking and problem-solving.

Throughout my career, I have taught a wide range of subjects, from foundational mathematics to advanced statistics, at various academic levels. My experience includes developing course materials, delivering lectures and workshops, and guiding students through complex mathematical and statistical concepts using practical examples. I am proficient in mathematical software such as MATLAB, R, and Python, and I enjoy helping students navigate these tools to enhance their learning experience.

I am passionate about fostering a deeper understanding of mathematics and statistics, not just as technical skills, but as ways of thinking that can be applied across disciplines. I look forward to engaging with students and creating an interactive and meaningful learning journey.

I hold several academic degrees, including:

PhD in Computational Modelling, University of Warwick
MSc in Physics, Chinese University of Hong Kong
MSc in Applied Mathematics, Imperial College London
BSc in Mathematics and Statistics (First Honours), University of Plymouth
PGCAP (FHEA Pathway), University of Liverpool

Maths tutoring for students ranging from primary to secondary
In this class I will be teaching the area where the student may struggle with the most for example algebra or fractions. During these class I will go over easy questions and as the student understands them more I will gradually move on to harder questions so all the teaching is done to the students own pace. Then we will keep returning to those areas at the beginning of the lesson to ensure they know the information.
