Statistics

Terry is VERY knowledgeable and makes leaning statistics easy. I was having a really hard time understanding and following along in class and knew I was going to need additional help. Terry not only tells you how to do the work he shows you while doing the work right beside you and making sure you understand what you're doing. He truly wants you to succeed and get an A on all your work. THANK YOU, TERRY! Ill be seeing you soon.

Amazing Tutor, highly recommend!

Terry was a great teacher and was so nice. He took me from barely having my project together to being being super confident in my responses. He was very helpful in his explanation and knows statistics extremely well, which was just what I needed. If I ever need help on any statistics work again, Terry will be the tutor I choose.

Great job

Terry was quick to the point and covered all the problems I was struggling with. I am taking an online stats course and he was able to explain some of the concepts that I felt weren't adequately covered by my professor. Highly recommend!

Extremely helpful!

Terry helped walk me through the logic behind R and why things operate the way they do. I really appreciated the way he reviewed my class's material before meeting so that he could answer all of my questions. I would definitely recommend Terry to anyone who wants to understand R more thoroughly!

Very knowledgeable

We went through the R stuff and some R questions relating to my stats homework. He knows everything that I wanna know, and taught me patiently. I will recommend him to everyone who needs the help with R studio.

Great AP Statistics tutor

Terry was great at explaining even complex concepts in a simple way that was easy for me to understand. He also made sure to base his information on the textbook so that I could directly reference any crucial parts of the chapter when I’m studying individually, which is super helpful! I’ll definitely be booking more sessions with him.

Diane, 1 lesson with Terry

Patient and very knowledgeable of statistics and more importantly teaching!

We worked on a variety of stats topics and Terry was very thorough, making sure I understood everything he said. He checked in with me constantly and if I did not understand he went back over it. He is very patient and has a great teaching style!

Very thorough help with RStudio

I received an extremely helpful and thorough explanation of the RStudio functions necessary for my assignment, and I am slowly becoming more familiar with how RStudio functions and behaves.
