Hi, my name is Oisín and I am a PhD student in Mathematics at UCD. My research focuses on error-correcting codes for quantum computing, using approaches from a well developed classical theory. It's been my experience that studying mathematics can bring about both frustration and joy in great measure, and often the difficulty is in striking a healthy balance. I've been a tutor at UCD for a few years now, and I have also been involved in the Peer Mentoring and Cara programmes. Studying maths at university can be a big hurdle for many students, but thankfully there is a strong community of tutors who are passionate about helping students overcome their difficulties. My primary goal when a student drops in for maths support is that they leave with a lot less mathematical frustration and, (hopefully), a little more mathematical joy. I am happy to help with MATH, STAT or ACM modules, and I can also provide support for Python programming. |
