"Top-notch instructor."
- Rick, Medina, OH on 2/11/17Pete is an amazing instructor. I'm an older student back in school in a doctoral level statistics class and was pretty worried about stats.

Best money I've ever spent.

Approved subjects are in bold.
Approved subjects
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
Algebra 1
I've been teaching and tutoring students in statistics, which relies heavily upon Algebra 1 principles, for 14 years. I have taught students both face-to-face and online during that time.
Elementary (K-6th)
I have current and previous experience tutoring students from k through 7 in mathematics including common core curriculum. I have prepped students for exams as well as reviewed homework assignments.
I have found that multiple short lessons are more beneficial to younger students than longer sessions. I have employed this technique to help student quickly grasp material they have been struggling with. For example, even if a student can spend only 5 minutes a day on math, outside of a tutoring session, it it has worked to their benefit.
Elementary Math
- Multiplication and division
- Numbers in Base 10
- Number operations and fractions
- Measurement and data
Prealgebra
I teach and tutor social science statistics which relies heavily on algebra. I have also tutored several students in algebra and pre-algebra.
Proofreading
I teach scientific writing to undergraduate students and part of that process involved proofreading their work not only for accuracy, but also for spelling, grammatical, and formatting errors.
Psychology
I have a PhD in Psychology and have tutored students in Psychology for over 15 years.
I have taught and tutored students in research methods and statistics in Psychology since 2002 in both face to face and online environments.

SPSS
I have taught SPSS to undergraduate students in the Psychology since 2002 I have developed and employed both face to face and online versions of my SPSS labs and continually develop new materials to utilize.
Regardless of your location or needs, we can work together to allow you to become proficient at SPSS.
Statistics
I have taught and tutored students in introductory and advanced statistics courses in Psychology since 2002.
I have developed many different methodologies to work with students of varying educational needs, diverse backgrounds, physical needs, and even location using an online curriculum and instructional videos developed by myself.
My experience has made me an excellent tutor in both face to face and online environments. Regardless of your location or needs, we can work together and improve your abilities and understanding of statistics.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
