About Tao


Bio

As one of Wyzants top 10% tutors for 2020, I helped college students and graduate students with a variety of subjects including Statistics, Bayesian Statistics, Biostatistics, Generalized linear model (linear model, logistic model, mixed model etc.), Multivariate Statistics, Time Series, and Econometrics. I have experience being a Math TA at McMaster University for more than 5 years, where I tutored undergraduate students taking levels 1-4 statistic courses and level 1-2 mathematics courses....

As one of Wyzants top 10% tutors for 2020, I helped college students and graduate students with a variety of subjects including Statistics, Bayesian Statistics, Biostatistics, Generalized linear model (linear model, logistic model, mixed model etc.), Multivariate Statistics, Time Series, and Econometrics. I have experience being a Math TA at McMaster University for more than 5 years, where I tutored undergraduate students taking levels 1-4 statistic courses and level 1-2 mathematics courses. I also helped high school students with AP Statistics. My students said that I knew the secrets in the textbook. 90% of my students successfully improved their overall comprehension and gained confidence in their mathematical and statistical approach. I love teaching and want to see my students succeed by providing individualized academic support, attention, patience, inspiration and encouragement. My GPA is A+ for my master's program (statistics) and Ph.D. program (statistics) as well.

Approved Subjects

Biostatistics

Biostatistics

During my graduate study, I took several Biostatistics courses, Topics in Biostatistics, Experimental design and linear models, survival analysis, Generalized linear model (linear model, logistic model, mixed model etc.), non-parametric statistics and Bayesian statistics. I got A+ for most of the courses.
Econometrics

Econometrics

Econometrics is the application of statistics to the study of economic and financial data. I have a Ph.D. in the research field of Statistics from McMaster University. My thesis work, "Univariate and Bivariate ACD Models for High Frequency Data Based on Birnbaum-Saunders and Related Distributions", proposes a new class of autoregressive conditional median duration models for high-frequency data. My research area is at the intersection of Econometrics and Statistics. I have tutored Econometrics to students in person when I was at McMaster University.
SAS

SAS

I hold a Ph.D. and Master's degree in Statistics from Statistics from a top-ranked university (McMaster University) in Canada with an outstanding academic record. I am good at SAS. I taught SAS labs for an undergraduate course, STAT 3A03 Applied regression analysis and guided students individually to use SAS to manipulate and analyze data. There are 33 students who participated in course evaluation. Overall, 79% of the students rated my tutorials as average or above.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

We are incredibly grateful to have found such an outstanding tutor. My son took AP Statistics in high school, and within a short period of time, Dr. Tao helped him improve his understanding significantly. With her strong expertise and patient teaching style, he was able to earn an A in the class and achieve a score of 4 on the AP exam. Now that he is in college, she continues to tutor him in econometrics. She has a remarkable ability to simplify complex concepts and make them easy to understand, which has helped him achieve excellent results in his coursework. She is always well-prepared for each lesson, tailors her teaching to my son’s needs, and makes every session highly efficient and productive. We highly recommend Dr. Tao to any student looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated, and effective tutor.

Very prepared and helpful

Tao was very prepared for the lecture and came to the class with a complete understanding of what I was looking for! I would definitely recommend her! She had a strong grasp of the multivariate statistics class that she was tutoring me on.

Amazing, patient and understanding tutor

Tao is an amazing, patient and understanding tutor who went over and above requirements to help me. I feel such great gratitude for having had time with Tao. I will be setting up more sessions with her as I work through my Master's degree. Her understanding of the subject is beyond my expectations.

James, 7 lessons with Tao

Expert Statistics Tutor

Tao had knowledge and insight on graduate-level statistics material that I greatly appreciated in my lessons. We would review my work together in weekly sessions, she would come prepared with notes and she had a deep understanding of the material. I recommend Tao as a tutor to anyone seeking to improve or deepen their understanding of statistics.

Expert in Bayesian Statistics - Highly Recommend!

Dr. Tao is a highly competent tutor for Bayesian Statistics and led sessions with confidence on topics such as Inverse Gamma, Gibbs Sampling, Metropolis Algorithm, etc. The class lectures I had only covered the math, but Dr. Tao was able to speak to the big-picture why, broke down each problem into clear steps and shared shortcuts I never would've learned otherwise. After not taking Statistics or Calculus for 20 years, she was patient and encouraging with my progress. Highly Recommend Dr. Tao if you want to master anything statistics - book her now! :)

Help with AP Calculus BC

She was understanding and able to provide clarity in the short time they had together. She also was able to provide a last minute lesson when our previously scheduled tutor did not show up. Thank you, Tao!

Tara, 1 lesson with Tao

knowledgeable and patient tutor

Dr. Tao has a strong mathematical background and is incredibly knowledgeable. She is patient when explaining problems with great detail and consistently reinforces important concepts. I'm very grateful to have Dr. Tao as my tutor; she has been a tremendous help.

Mandy, 12 lessons with Tao

Expert on Time Series Analysis

Tao was able to break down the esoteric details of time series proof derivations to a level that was easily understandable to me. She definitely knows what she's talking about when it comes to univariate and multivariate time series methods. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing assistance with statistical forecasting!

Jacob, 5 lessons with Tao

very detailed explanation! helps me understand the material

Tao's explanation is detailed enough to help me understand even though I am lacking basic knowledge. She's a greater tutor who knows how to teach an advanced course in small and easier steps. Language also helps.
