Support for ST107 Quantitative Methods (Statistics) at LSE

Our tutoring for ST107 is designed to make the module feel more manageable. Sessions can focus on clarifying lecture material, rebuilding foundations, working through problem sets, data exercises, coding tasks 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 assumptions and intuition behind probability distributions, with particular attention to estimation
  • choosing the right method when moving between hypothesis testing and contingency tables and chi-squared tests in problem sets, data work or coding tasks
  • interpreting estimates, diagnostics, proofs and output clearly in assessed answers
  • building a clear revision plan when the module starts to feel cumulative
How our tutors help
