Develops applied regression skills using R. Students study simple and multiple linear regression, model diagnostics, outliers, multicollinearity and an introduction to generalised linear models.

Support for ST211 Applied Regression at LSE

Our tutoring for ST211 is designed to make the module feel more manageable. Sessions can focus on clarifying lecture material, rebuilding foundations, working through problem sets, R exercises, diagnostic analysis 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 R programming, with particular attention to simple and multiple regression
  • choosing the right method when moving between model diagnostics and outliers and multicollinearity 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

Our tutors can help by:

  • Reviewing the statistical or econometric intuition behind R programming, with particular attention to simple and multiple regression
  • Working through derivations and problem sets involving model diagnostics and outliers
  • Applying multicollinearity in data work and interpreting the resulting output
  • Building confidence with coding, proofs and exam-style questions
  • Tailoring sessions to the exact parts of ST211 that feel unclear
