Tutors

All tutors are mathematics students at UNSW (in third year or higher) and are required to meet certain criteria before being allowed to become tutors.

If you want to become a tutor, you should apply to Dr Alan Stoneham (a.stoneham@unsw.edu.au) for more information.

Please note that applicants who hold a Doctorate are not able to apply.

For further information on how to become a Centre tutor, please see the Tutor Application Process.

Revision worksheets

There are many topics from school mathematics which we do not teach in first year classes, but which we assume that you know. The worksheets on the Revision Worksheets page are designed to help students learn topics which they may not be coping with.
