I am a current professor of statistics and psychology at both the undergraduate and graduate level. I have extensive tutoring and teaching experience in statistics, data science, and psychology. Specifically, I have over 10 years of experience tutoring and teaching, as well as conducting research and doing statistical data analysis.

Learning is a collaborative process, so my favorite aspect about tutoring is helping students uncover knowledge or skills that they did not know they possessed or could achieve. This is especially the case when it comes to math and statistics, both of which can be intimidating for students at times. Making students realize their true potential when it comes to these and related subjects is what I love most about tutoring.

I have used statistics on a daily basis for the past 10 years. This includes my statistical training during graduate school; I earned a certificate in Advanced Quantitative Methods in addition to my PhD in Cognitive Psychology. By conducting research throughout my graduate and post-doctoral careers, I have become extremely familiar with a wide range of statistical analyses and data science techniques. It has also lead me to become proficient in a variety of statistical software packages and programs (e.g., SPSS, Excel, R, Stata, Mplus, Python). Whether you need help in a college- or graduate-level statistics course, or if you have a data science project you need assistance with, I look forward to using my extensive statistics training and experience in helping you achieve your highest goals.

Thanks for your interest in my tutoring services! If you have any questions or want to inquire more about my training or tutoring philosophy, please do not hesitate to contact me. I would be more than happy to assist you in any way I can!

Knowledgable and easy to understand

Michael was one of few tutors I could find all over the internet who not only knew mplus, but thoroughly understood SEM. He is able to translate complex SEM concepts to beginners and helped to have a much better understanding of interpreting data output. He was patient as well. Highly recommend.

Kiara, 1 lesson with Michael

Michael knows advanced SPSS and he is able to help to match APA reporting

Michael clarified test procedures from the SPSS point of view, and the interest was mutual to keep this efficient and fast in the areas of Multiple Regression, Multiple Variables including Manova. It was required that Michael provided the proper order and APA style presentation.

David, 2 lessons with Michael

Knowledgeable, Patient and Empathetic

I was learning something entirely new e.g. SEM and Mplus and Michael was excellent in teaching, guiding and giving me helpful feedback. I recommend him to anyone who is looking to learn something new and catching on the material in a timely fashion.

Lena, 15 lessons with Michael

Great tutor!

I was pleasantly surprised by Michael's professionalism, knowledge, and most importantly patience during our first session. I left the session feeling very confident in my understanding of the lesson reviewed. He will definitely be my go to tutor for statistics moving forward.

Renae, 18 lessons with Michael

I am a professional statistician, and I still reached out for help

Michael helped me understand and adjust my code in MPlus for moderation analyses using continuous and binary outcomes. Even professional statisticians need extra help and collaboration with others throughout our careers. I would recommend Michael to anyone, no matter your level of expertise. He makes complex topics incredibly understandable with his wide breadth of knowledge. I cannot wait to work with him in the future.
