About Penelope


Bio

I am a full-time epidemiologist with more than 12 years of tutoring experience. I assist high school, college, and graduate students with math and science.

As an academic tutor, I practice the "I do, we do, you do" approach, where we can work on problems together until you can confidently and accurately find the solution independently.

As an epidemiologist, I have more than 20 professional publications. I work with advance epidemiologic and biostatistical techniques, utilizing...

Approved Subjects

Biochemistry

Biochemistry

I was a double major in biology and chemistry for undergrad so I had a unique experience taking both the bio and chem versions of biochem. My biology biochem class was very focused on amino acids and the physiologic impact while my chemistry biochem class emphasized biological reactions, chemical structures, and the energetics behind those important reactions!
Biostatistics

Biostatistics

I have a MPH in Epidemiology from Emory University's Rollins School of Public Health taking many graduate courses in biostatistics. My career as an epidemiologist requires an intimate knowledge and application of biostatistics including advanced use of SAS and intermediate use of R.
Epidemiology

Epidemiology

I have a MPH in Epidemiology from Emory University's Rollins School of Public Health. My career as an epidemiologist requires an intimate knowledge and application of epidemiologic methods. At work I have mentored fellows in epidemiology.
Probability

Probability

I have a lot of experience studying and tutoring statistics and probability. Surprisingly epidemiology is a lot of math so we frequently use poisson and binomial distributions to describe health data from populations. Please let me know if you are looking for help with a lab component too. Thanks!
SAS

SAS

In my graduate degree program we utilize SAS for our statistical analysis. I received an A in Emory University's EPI 533 Programming in SAS, in addition, I received an A in the schools BIOS 500 Statistical Methods I Lecture and Lab.
Statistics

Statistics

I have 7+ years experience studying and tutoring statistics and probability.

Penelope is incredibly helpful!

Penelope helped me with breaking down large word problems into smaller pieces, which helped me to understand the concepts much easier. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for extra help!
