PhD Educational Researcher: Expert Stats, Data Science & Spanish

Eduardo G.

I know statistics and math can look like a complex foreign language. It is all an appearance, I promise! I am a PhD-level educator with 9 years of experience teaching statistics and conducting educational research at institutions like Adidas, UCLA, California State University Chico, and the University of Oviedo.

As a native speaker from Spain and an expert in pedagogy, I also offer specialized Spanish instruction, applying the same evidence-based methods to help you achieve fluency or master AP Spanish.

My approach is rooted in Evidence-Based Instruction and my own academic publications on the most effective methods for learning. Specifically, my techniques include:

- Clear Explanations through Worked Examples: Research shows that new concepts are assimilated faster when solutions are embedded in real-life scenarios. You will explore these at your own pace to build a solid foundation.

- Active Problem-Solving: Deep understanding happens when you apply logic to real-world problems. We use hands-on practice with the software required for your courses (SPSS, R, SQL, Excel...).

- Retrieval Practice: Educational science demonstrates that practice testing is the most efficient way to consolidate memory and overcome test anxiety. I provide customized exercises and mock questions adapted to your syllabus.

- Strategic Study Planning: I help students implement effective strategies—such as spaced and interleaved practice—empowering you to optimize your own study habits.

Typical 60-minute session:

10 min: Intuition-building exercises.

15 min: Exploring worked examples at your own pace.

25 min: Active testing, practice, and resolving doubts.

10 min: Synthesis and a personalized roadmap for independent study.
