I have taught college-level statistics for eight years, both in-person and online. I have taught statistics as a math course (focused on probability theory and formulas) and applied versions for business courses, and social science courses. Throughout those courses, I maintained an 85% excellent instructor rating, despite 80% of them being anxious about the course at the start!

I have taught college-level statistics for eight years, both in-person and online.

Throughout those courses, I maintained an 85% excellent instructor rating, despite 80% of them being anxious about the course at the start!
My tutoring sessions are based on the 1-on-1 student work sessions that guide my struggling students to success. We will begin by exploring your current strengths and hindrances in your statistical work. This will provide the basis of the customized intervention activity we will work through together. Alternatively, if you have a specific area of statistics you are struggling with, we will work through a similar set of problems together. (HINT: This goes better if you can give me a brief summary of the topics you want to cover and areas of difficulty or stuckness prior to our session.) Throughout this activity, I will highlight your areas of comprehension (and improvement!), draw your attention to factors or steps you may be overlooking, and prompt further steps when you get stuck. We will conclude each session by documenting your comprehension in a customized “solution map” for future use in solving similar problems. In short, I will give you the same time and commitment as my own students, whose anonymous college evaluations repeatedly describe me as “deeply involved in helping students succeed”, and “stopping at nothing to ensure better overall understanding”.
As part of earning my Ph.D. in Psychology at The University of Georgia, I completed several high-level statistics courses, cumulating in multiple linear regression analysis. In preparation for those graduate courses, I took undergraduate advanced statistics I and II via the statistics department. These two courses are closer in content to the college courses I teach and tutor for, so I draw from them heavily for instruction materials. I routinely apply and exp
