Support for MA107 Quantitative Methods (Mathematics) at LSE

Our tutoring for MA107 is designed to make the module feel more manageable. Sessions can focus on clarifying lecture material, rebuilding foundations, working through problem sets, proofs, quantitative exercises and exam-style questions, 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 notation and reasoning behind differentiation and multivariable calculus
  • choosing optimisation appropriately and applying integration in multi-step problems
  • showing complete working and connecting techniques to economic or financial applications
  • building a clear revision plan when the module starts to feel cumulative
How our tutors help

Our tutors can help by:

  • Clarifying notation, definitions and theory for differentiation and multivariable calculus
  • Breaking down multi-step problems involving optimisation
  • Practising integration until the method and reasoning feel secure
  • Connecting mathematical techniques to economic and financial applications
  • Tailoring sessions to the exact parts of MA107 that feel unclear
