Statistics Tutoring That Makes It Click
Statistics is one of the most commonly failed and most anxiety-inducing courses at university, and it is rarely because students are not capable. It is usually because the material was explained as a list of formulas instead of a way of thinking.
I am a statistics professor, and I have tutored students one-to-one since 2014. My sessions focus on intuition first, mechanics second: once you understand why a test works, the formulas, software steps and exam questions become far more manageable.
Who I Tutor
Undergraduate Students
Introductory and intermediate statistics courses across psychology, nursing, business, economics, sociology, biology, criminal justice, education and public health. Whether it is your first encounter with a p-value or you are preparing for a cumulative final, we build understanding from the ground up.
Graduate Students
Master’s and doctoral coursework in research methods, applied regression, multivariate statistics, biostatistics, econometrics, psychometrics and experimental design. Graduate sessions go deeper into assumptions, model selection and the interpretation you will need for your own research.
Professionals and Returning Learners
Professionals preparing for certifications, career changers moving into analytics and anyone who wants a structured, patient refresher on statistical foundations.

How a Tutoring Session Works
- Diagnose: Before our first session, you share your syllabus, recent assignments or practice exams. I identify the concepts that are holding you back.
- Explain: We work through the ideas with visual explanations and real-world examples, not just textbook definitions.
- Practice: You solve problems while I coach, so you build the skill yourself rather than watching me do it.
- Reinforce: You receive the session recording and a concise summary of the key ideas and steps to revise from.
Tutoring Formats
| Format | Best for |
|---|---|
| Single session | A specific concept, a confusing homework topic or a quick software question |
| Exam preparation block | 3–5 focused sessions before a midterm or final |
| Semester plan | Weekly sessions aligned to your course schedule, the most effective option for steady grades |
| Software crash session | Getting productive fast in SPSS, R, Stata, Python or Excel |
| Small-group sessions | Study groups of 2–5 classmates sharing a session |
All sessions are held online via Zoom or Google Meet and scheduled across time zones.
A Note on Academic Integrity
Tutoring is about learning. I explain concepts, model problem-solving with practice examples, review your understanding and help you prepare for assessments. I do not complete graded assignments, take quizzes or sit exams on a student’s behalf. Read the full Academic Integrity Policy.
