Practical Work

This class has two practical components: exercises done with Anastasia (that are individual); and a project and exercises done with the TAs (some of these are individual some are group based).

Individual Practical (with Anastasia on Tuesdays)

Project and other exercises (with the TA on Wednesdays)

With your TAs you will do practice in the form of exercises, and get help with your (group) project.
