MASH is the University’s mathematics and statistics help provision as part of the Mathematics Resources Centre.  We provide daily drop-in support for all students, and dedicated sessions for Year 1 students studying Mathematics modules, led by a team of peer tutors.

Peer tutors will work in small teams to deliver drop-in support during teaching weeks.

We surveyed our peer tutors in 2024 and 100% of respondents said they enjoyed working for MASH.
