Maths

I have a degree in Maths, have studied the History of Maths with Open University and have taught maths at all levels from primary school children to A level students. Its amazing what you can get away with in the largely unregulated private sector - who says you need a teaching qualification to teach ?

While studying for my degree Groups was probably my favourite mathematical subject. Since 1999 I have been working on a project to be the first to publish Cayley tables for the first hundred or so groups on the web - perhaps this project will appear here at some point in the future.

I also intend publishing some of my History of Maths essays, particularly the one on Babylonian maths of which I am most proud.
