Patient and Adaptable Statistics, Math, and Physiology Tutor

Alicia A.

I am a PhD student at Virginia Tech working in the biology and statistics departments. I have a bachelor's and master's degree in animal science and a graduate certificate in applied statistics all from Virginia Tech as well. I am working on a PhD in biology and a master's in applied statistics. In addition, I have several years of hands on experience in the veterinary field and about two years of statistical consulting experience.

I am excited about animal physiology and disease states (this is actually what my PhD research is based on) and equally as excited about DOING statistics in the most ethical and responsible way possible. Given my interests, the ideal student for me is one who needs some help and maybe a little motivation to enjoy learning about statistics or physiology (human or animal is fine :) ). I also love to work with students who may need help with applied statistical analysis for a class project or research project. I have expertise in linear and generalized linear mixed models, time series analysis, and biostatistics and I do not need the project to be based in my preferred fields to help!

Additionally, if you are seeking help with applying to college, graduate school, or professional school (esp. vet school), I would be thrilled to help you with those processes and applications. Let me help you put your best foot forward and find a program that is right for you! At this point in my career, I have been through *all* the chaos of program searching and applying.

I have mentored students at all levels, from elementary school through graduate/ professional school and non-traditional adult learners. I have been tutoring for nearly 10 years (WOAH where did that time go?), and I am motivated and driven by student success stories. Reach out today for a free consultation/ first lesson to see if we are a good fit!
