J Cole is a very successful US rapper and record producer with 9 million sales.

Andrew Wiles is a UK mathematician with (probably) 9 million fans. 

J approached us to use this voiceover to promote his new album (out today). Andrew said yes. 

Mathematics is everywhere.

"O sleep, O gentle sleep,

Nature's soft nurse, how have I frightened thee,

That thou no more will weigh my eyelids down, 

And steep my senses in forgetfulness?"

Mathematics perhaps?

'Thorough preparation, engaging delivery, active learning, supported by clear, visual-aided, well-structured content.'

But enough of Google AI. For a good student lecture, how about the human touch?

The Centre for Teaching and Learning invites colleagues to apply for the Oxford Teaching, Learning and Educational Leadership Recognition Scheme accredited by Advance HE. The scheme includes a strong emphasis on recognition and educational leadership and is designed for staff who teach and support learning to achieve fellowships of the Higher Education Academy, including professional services staff.

What do our Oxford Mathematics students do in their spare time?

Well, much the same as everyone else. Music, gym, bit of yoga, organising events, impersonating farmyard animals.
