I am a PhD level instructor in the areas of statistics, research methods, and professional writing. I have experience helping high school students, university students, and adults (fellow professors). Are statistics and professional writing hard for you? I can help you make sense of statistical language and help you communicate with clear, professional writing.
I will charge an extra 5 dollars per hour if I travel to you. I only travel to you if you are within 20 km. If you are further away, I am happy to do lessons via skype or the zoom application.
I have been giving lessons across multiple environments for over 20 years. I have taught well over 1000 students (5+ years) at the university level and have supervised multiple honours theses. Alone, and together with students and colleagues, I have published over 20 articles using appropriate statistical methods and language.
