I worked as a maths tutor for a set of 5 first year undergraduate students. Each week I would mark example sheets submitted by the students on their first year courses, mainly mathematics. I would then structure an hour long tutorial session based upon their performance.

I worked on the C-Band All Sky Survey, during this time I worked on the southern telescope data identifying sources of radio frequency interference, such as satellites. I also manually checked the northern telescope’s data flagging software to see if it was working correctly and identified bad scans of the sky to be removed from the all sky maps. I then.
