Support for EC328 Economics of Diversity and Discrimination at LSE

Our tutoring for EC328 is designed to make the module feel more manageable. Sessions can focus on clarifying lecture material, rebuilding foundations, working through problem sets, essays, data-based tasks and exam preparation, and developing a clearer strategy for revision and assessed work. The aim is to help students understand the module deeply enough to apply the material independently, not just memorise model answers.

Common Challenges

Students often struggle with:

  • understanding the relationship between race and gender disparities and theories of discrimination without losing sight of the economic intuition
  • applying intergenerational effects in analytical work and using measuring discrimination in problem sets, essays or data-based questions
  • selecting the right model, explaining its assumptions and showing enough analytical detail
  • building a clear revision plan when the module starts to feel cumulative
