As a dedicated educator with a Master’s degree in Statistics from North Carolina State University and as a current PhD student in Biostatistics, I bring both depth of expertise and years of teaching experience. I have over 8 years of combined experience tutoring mathematics and statistics, helping students from high school through graduate school succeed in subjects such as Algebra, Calculus, Probability, and advanced Statistics.

My teaching philosophy emphasizes creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and can confidently tackle complex concepts at their own pace. I adapt my methods to each student’s learning style, aiming not only for immediate academic success but also for fostering a lasting appreciation for mathematics and statistics.

I’m fluent in R and Python and can assist with homework, exam prep, coding/debugging, and research projects. As a peer tutor, I held one-on-one, group, and review sessions for calculus, algebra, statistics, and other STEM courses. I also earned the College Reading & Learning Association’s (CRLA) International Tutor Training Lifetime Level II certification, reflecting my commitment to effective and ethical tutoring practices. My academic background in computational statistics and applied mathematics equips me with valuable analytical tools and a strong foundation in both introductory and advanced topics, as well as experience applying statistical methods to research and data analysis across the sciences.

Whether you’re preparing for an exam tomorrow or tackling a complex data analysis project, I specialize in clear explanations, step-by-step guidance, and quick-turnaround help. My goal is to make sure you not only get the right answers but also understand the underlying concepts.

ADHD

ADHD

As both a tutor and someone with ADHD myself, I understand the unique challenges that come with staying focused and organized while learning. I use strategies that break down concepts into clear, manageable steps and build lessons around each student’s strengths. My approach is patient, flexible, and encouraging, designed to help students with ADHD build confidence and succeed academically while developing study skills that work for them.
Algebra 1

Algebra 1

With years of experience tutoring Algebra, Calculus, and related STEM courses, I’ve worked with students from high school through college. I emphasize building strong foundations and connecting math concepts to real-world applications. My goal is to help students gain both confidence and long-term problem-solving skills, whether preparing for an exam or strengthening core understanding.

Biostatistics

Biostatistics

I hold a Master’s degree in Statistics from NC State and am currently pursuing a PhD in Biostatistics. I have over 8 years of tutoring experience helping students succeed in statistics courses from introductory through graduate level. I can support you with topics such as probability, regression, hypothesis testing, experimental design, and applied data analysis. My teaching style is clear, patient, and adaptable, ensuring you not only solve problems but also understand the reasoning behind them.
C++

C++

In my research as a PhD student in Biostatistics, I regularly use C++ and Rcpp to accelerate statistical computing in Bayesian models and simulation studies. I can help you understand how to write efficient C++ functions, integrate them seamlessly into R with Rcpp, and apply them to real statistical problems such as MCMC sampling, hierarchical models, and simulation-based inference. My tutoring emphasizes both the practical coding skills needed to implement algorithms in C++ and the statistical reasoning behind them, so you gain confidence in applying these tools to coursework, research projects, or advanced data analysis.
Calculus

Calculus

I have over 8 years of tutoring experience helping students succeed in statistics courses from introductory through graduate level. I can support you with topics such as probability, regression, hypothesis testing, experimental design, and applied data analysis. My teaching style is clear, patient, and adaptable, ensuring you not only solve problems but also understand the reasoning behind them.
Data Science

Data Science

As a PhD student in Biostatistics with a Master’s degree in Statistics from NC State, I bring both the theoretical foundation and practical skills needed for modern data science. I can help with data wrangling, visualization, regression, classification, machine learning basics, and statistical modeling using tools such as R, Python, pandas, NumPy, ggplot2, and tidyverse. My experience includes guiding students through assignments, projects, and research involving real-world datasets and applied analysis. I emphasize not just coding but also understanding the statistical reasoning behind algorithms, so you can approach problems with confidence and clarity.
Econometrics

Econometrics

With a Master’s degree in Statistics from NC State and current PhD training in Biostatistics, I bring a strong foundation in both theory and applied methods. I can help with core econometrics topics such as linear regression, instrumental variables, simultaneous equations, time series models, panel data, maximum likelihood estimation, and hypothesis testing. I also provide guidance on applying econometric techniques in R, Python, Stata, and SPSS, ensuring that you not only complete assignments but also understand the intuition behind the methods. My tutoring emphasizes step-by-step explanations, clear interpretation of results, and hands-on coding practice, so you can confidently connect econometric theory to real-world data.
Epidemiology

Epidemiology

I have a strong background in biostatistics and public health, with a Master’s degree in Statistics from NC State and current PhD training in Biostatistics. I can help with core epidemiology topics such as study design, measures of disease frequency and association (incidence, prevalence, risk, odds ratios), bias and confounding, stratification and adjustment, and interpretation of public health research findings. I also provide guidance on analyzing data with R, Python, SPSS, or SAS, connecting methods to the underlying public health questions. My tutoring approach emphasizes clear explanations and practical applications, so students can confidently interpret research and apply concepts to real-world health challenges.
Greek

Smart and Adaptive

Quick to pick up on learning styles and knows how to pace material and building core concepts. Nice to find someone who can build up topics and ideas and break them down as easily as such to explain connections and meanings. Changed how I viewed set theory for life
