Statistics Ph.D.|Experienced in teaching all levels of Math/Stats

Kate Z.

With a PhD in Statistics from Florida State University and dual Bachelor's degrees in Mathematics and Quantitative Economics from the University of California Irvine, I bring a strong academic foundation and nearly ten years of tutoring and teaching experience. I graduated Cum Laude with Honors in Mathematics, earned a 3.74 cumulative GPA in undergrad, and a 3.98 GPA during my PhD program. My early accomplishments include perfect scores on SAT Math, AP Calculus AB, and AP Calculus BC, which reflect a deep understanding of mathematical reasoning that I now enjoy passing on to my students.

I offer personalized one on one tutoring in Algebra, Precalculus, Calculus, AP Calculus, SAT and ACT Math, and a wide range of college level math and statistics courses. I have worked with high school students preparing for competitive exams, undergraduates navigating difficult STEM courses, and adult learners returning to the classroom. My teaching style is student centered and flexible. I take time to understand each student's strengths, challenges, and preferred learning methods so I can tailor explanations in a way that truly makes sense to them.

In addition to tutoring, I served as a Teaching Assistant at Florida State University for several undergraduate statistics courses where I led discussion sections, held office hours, created learning materials, and supported hundreds of students. Whether your goal is to improve a grade, boost a test score, prepare for college, or build long term understanding, I am here to help make math and statistics clear, manageable, and even enjoyable.
