Perhaps I can help! I am a math/statistics/physics/data science/software development tutor based in Portland ME and Cambridge MA. If you are in greater Portland or greater Boston, please consider me for help with math from the basics to calculus to beginning and advanced statistics, ODE/PDEs, linear algebra, time series analysis or any other topic of applied math. I can help with high school or college level physics (I have a PhD in physics), general data science (I've made a career...

His teaching style helped me understand stats more quickly than any professor I've ever had. He was also able to identify certain biases and where the statistical results might be misleading, which helps me avoid several tough questions that could have arisen during my thesis defense. He is a fantastic tutor and I recommend him to everyone!

A knowledgeable tutor and a joy to speak with
As a beginner with R, I was struggling a bit with creating complex functions. I understood how to make simple ones (converting cm to inches, for example), but I couldn't get complex, multi-step functions to work. In an hour and 15 minutes, Peter not only helped me complete the assignment that troubled me, but also helped me understand what I was doing wrong and showed me some neat tricks to debug my code when I have problems I don't understand in the future. I would recommend Peter's services to anyone who is struggling with R.

Knowledgeable and informative
Peter helped me go over my cluster analysis and really helped me to better understand the process and results. We also had a great conversation on future academic paths and opportunities. I'd highly recommend Peter as a tutor and advisor.

Accessible explanations!
Peter demonstrates the intuition behind concepts. Solving becomes simpler when Peter is providing foundational knowledge. He helped me with my graduate school coursework on Bayesian Statistics.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor
Peter is extremely knowledgeable with the subject. Very patiently, step-by-step he worked through each problem. He understood the urgency of the situation and made time the very next day. Just to have a tutor who is proficient is very reassuring. Very methodical and makes the student understand the concepts. Highly recommended.

A Real Teacher!
I’m a Master’s international student who never had an Econometrics course before. I have struggled with the course for a while as the course’s pace was too fast for me. I met Peter twice before my midterm and he actually explained almost the entire course in two sessions! He illustrated the concepts in real life easy to understand examples. He was patient, understanding, and he was also funny. Thanks to Peter, I actually got an A+ on my midterm!

Knowledgeable and helpful tutor
Peter helped me with Econometrics, he helped me by providing answers to my questions both by words and numbers, so I have more options to absorb the material that way.
