Approved Subjects

Biostatistics

Biostatistics

I hold a PhD in Biostatistics and an Msc in Statistics. I have extensive teaching assistant and tutoring experience for many undergraduate and graduate level biostatistics / statistics classes. Courses I have TA-ed or tutored include Elementary Statistics, Probability and Statistics for Engineers, Statistical Methods, Introduction to Biostatistics, Mathematical statistics, Probability theory, Applied Linear Models, Theory of Linear Models, Longitudinal Modeling, Logistic Regression, Applied Mixed Models, Advanced Statistical Inference, Multivariate Analysis, SAS Programming, Advanced R programming, Computational Statistics, Monte Carlo Methods, Hierarchical Linear Modeling.
Probability

Probability

As part of my graduate level training in statistics and biostatistics, I have taken probability courses ranging from the very basic to measure-theoretic probability courses. I also have an extensive teaching assistant and tutoring experience for probability courses of various levels.
R

R

I am proficient in R, and use R regularly for work. Learned R through R-intensive grad level stats classes (for example, computation stats), from having served twice as a teaching assistant for a graduate level advanced R programming class, from having used R for my dissertation research (for extensive data management, monte carlo simulations, optimizations, and data analyses), and also due to personal interest. Here at Wyzant, I have tutored tonnes of students R-intensive stats, data science, data visualization, predictive analytics, machine learning and data mining courses, and also pure R programming courses.
SAS

SAS

I have used SAS for school, and work as a SAS programmer and biostatistician. In graduate school, I was a teaching assistant for a graduate level SAS programming course and SAS-intensive statistics and biostatistics courses. I am very proficient with SAS data step, proc step and macro programming.
SPSS

SPSS

I have used SPSS as a student, a teaching assistant and tutor for SPSS-based statistics/biostatistics courses; and as a statistician for work.
STATA

STATA

In graduate school, I took STATA-based biostatistics /statistics classes and served as a teaching assistant for grad level biostatistics / statistics courses taught using STATA. On Wyzant's platform, I have helped many students with their STATA-based courses (biostatistics, statistics and econometrics classes at various levels) and dissertation / thesis projects using STATA.

Expert Tutor

Kidane is a knowledgeable expert who was helpful, patient, and thorough. He is great communicator and will try various approaches to help students gain a deeper understanding of the subject matter. He addresses all questions thoroughly and has guided me to self-sufficiency.

Allen, 36 lessons with Kidane

R and multivariate analysis

Kidane helped me to better understand principal component analysis and handling outliers in R. He is knowledgeable in the theory and writing the code in R. He is patient, listened to my questions, and I was able to complete the assignment afterwards. I have another session next week. I highly recommend! Thank you Kidane.

Kathy, 8 lessons with Kidane

knowledgeable and patient tutor

Kidane was very good in explaining what we covered in STATA. I felt I had a better understanding of my errors when I worked with him. He was very patient and kind.

Jenine, 6 lessons with Kidane

Knowledgeable Tutor

Kidane G. was very helpful as I worked on my SAS coding and understanding the different meanings of the codes. I would recommend him to others and hire him again as my tutor, if I need additional help.

Julisa, 1 lesson with Kidane

Excellent!!! Very knowledgeable and patient tutor.

Kidane is a Rock Star Tutor! I learned so much about Monte Carlo Simulation, Complex Surveys, Jackknife Replicate Weights, and SAS from Kidane. I feel confident and empowered to engage in discussions around this complex topic because of Kidane. Thank you forever and a day!!!

Bon, 4 lessons with Kidane

Expert in the Field

Kidane tutored me in the following skills: importing a csv file into an R session, generating boxplots using ggplot2, running two-sample t-test and anova, etc. Kidane was very thorough and an expert in the field. I give Kidane five stars! *****

Georgetta, 6 lessons with Kidane

Very Knowledgeable and Patient

Kidane guided me through a very challenging topic which is PCA and although I had no background in statistics he really helped me through the concepts and I feel very confident in my knowledge now with PCA. I will be sure to book future lessons with Kidane, thank you so much for your time and effort!

Great tutor!

Kidane was fantastic in breaking down the material I was struggling with. Statistics and research are are subjects I have always struggled with so I truly appreciated the kindness and patient Kidane showed me. Kidane even went above and beyond by providing me with additional assistance and resources following our lesson. That kind of support is invaluable. Thank you so much.

Very knowledgeable and explains concepts well

Kidane explains both the concepts and the procedures of statistics very well. He is very knowledgeable and patient and I look forward to learning more with his help.

Patience Is Key

Kidane walked me through my homework and had patience with me. I do not fully understand the concepts just yet so breaking down things step by step was helpful. Thank You.
