I earned my PhD in 2019 and have 12 years of teaching experience, primarily with undergraduate students. My background includes social science research, program evaluation, statistics, research methods, and academic writing. I tutor students in statistics, SPSS, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word, APA style, research design, data analysis, and interpretation of statistical results.

In addition to classroom teaching, I have approximately two years of one-on-one tutoring experience with high school, undergraduate, graduate, and adult learners. I have also supported students with dissertation work, research projects, statistical software, document formatting, and the process of turning complex analyses into clear written findings. My approach is patient, practical, and individualized. I break difficult concepts into manageable steps, explain both how and why a method works, and adapt my teaching to the student’s background and goals.

I especially enjoy working with students who feel overwhelmed or intimidated by statistics, research, or technology. My goal is not just to help someone get through an assignment, but to help them understand the process well enough to apply it independently in the future. Whether a student needs help choosing a statistical test, interpreting SPSS output, organizing data in Excel, formatting a paper in Word, or strengthening a research project, I provide clear, supportive, and straightforward guidance.

Approved Subjects

Grammar

Grammar

I am a PhD-level researcher and experienced tutor who helps students strengthen grammar, sentence structure, punctuation, and overall writing clarity. I can assist with common challenges such as verb tense, subject-verb agreement, pronoun use, sentence fragments, run-on sentences, and word choice. I explain grammar rules in clear, practical terms and use examples that match the student’s current skill level. My goal is to help students improve both individual assignments and their long-term confidence as writers.
Microsoft Excel

Microsoft Excel

I am a PhD-level researcher and experienced tutor who uses Microsoft Excel for data organization, analysis, reporting, and visualization. I can help students with formulas, functions, charts, tables, sorting, filtering, conditional formatting, and PivotTables. I also teach data cleaning, spreadsheet design, troubleshooting errors, and selecting the most efficient tools for a task. I explain Excel step by step and adapt each lesson to the student’s experience level and goals.
Microsoft Word

Microsoft Word

I am a PhD-level researcher and experienced tutor who regularly uses Microsoft Word for academic, professional, and everyday documents. I can help students with document formatting, page layout, styles, headings, tables, citations, references, headers and footers, and automatic tables of contents. I also teach more advanced tools such as Track Changes, comments, templates, section breaks, and troubleshooting inconsistent formatting. I explain each feature step by step and help students understand how to use Word independently and efficiently.
Proofreading

Proofreading

I am a PhD-level researcher with extensive experience proofreading academic, professional, and student writing. I review grammar, punctuation, spelling, sentence structure, clarity, organization, consistency, and adherence to assignment requirements. I can also help improve academic tone, flow, transitions, and APA-style formatting while preserving the writer’s original meaning and voice. My feedback is specific and instructional so that writers understand both what should be revised and why.
SPSS

SPSS

I am a PhD-level social science researcher with extensive experience using IBM SPSS for statistical analysis and research projects. I can help students enter, clean, manage, transform, and analyze data using both menus and SPSS syntax. My areas of expertise include descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, correlations, t tests, ANOVA, chi-square tests, and regression. I also help students interpret SPSS output and clearly report their results in APA style.
Statistics

Statistics

I am a PhD-trained social science researcher with extensive experience teaching and applying statistics. I help students understand descriptive statistics, probability, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, correlation, regression, t tests, ANOVA, chi-square tests, and related concepts. I focus on explaining the reasoning behind each method rather than relying only on formulas or memorization. I can also help students select appropriate statistical tests, interpret results, and report findings in APA style.
Study Skills

Study Skills

I am a PhD-level researcher and experienced tutor who helps students develop practical study habits that support academic success. I can assist with organization, time management, note-taking, active reading, test preparation, motivation, and breaking large assignments into manageable steps. I tailor strategies to the student’s strengths, challenges, learning preferences, and academic goals rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. I also focus on helping students become more independent, consistent, and confident in managing their own learning.
