trouble with maths

    I tutor Introduction to Maths and Stats for Business courses in a number of universities in Ireland and I would like to organise tailor made online exam revision courses for university students who need additional help in these types of subjects.
    I have found that there is big demand for such support by students having to repeat maths-related university exams or where the subject is a compulsory module in the degree program.
    Does anyone know, based on their experience or through hearing from friends, of universities where there is a demand for this type of support. It's very diffcult to obtain this information from the university websites.
    Any info or advice would be much appreciated.

    I'd say students of TCD's introduction to Maths and Stats for Business and Economics could use some support

    It has the problem of the lecturer of the maths portion of the course assuming a high level of competance amoung students despite not requiring high level of maths to get into courses with this module

    Carol is brilliant. Did a bad pass in Maths 8 years ago, and found her teaching style and coursework fantastic. Found it a bit of a challenge, but not unduly so.
