Tutors online
Bio
I'm an experienced online tutor, with both a Bachelor's and a Master's in Psychology. I'm trained in statistics and research methods, specializing in tutoring high school, college, and grad students.
Previous tutoring clients have noted my patience, way of re-explaining tough subjects, and flexibility when a tutoring session needs to cover a different topic than originally planned. In all of my jobs (including the ones outside tutoring), people look to me as a mentor, someone who can answer questions and guide the new employees.
Education
- 2016 - 2018 - MS in Psychology (Palo Alto University)
- 2012 - 2016 - BS in Psychology (Baylor University)
My proudest achievements
- Working for the San Antonio Health Department and preventing COVID-19 infections on a regular basis.
- Helping a tutoring client through a Kaggle project, start to finish.
Subjects
University Tutoring
Statistics
1st Year - Postgrad PSY 2402, PSY 2405, PSY 4300, MTHD 509, STAT 510, STAT 511I've received A's in 12 hours of graduate statistics. I've tutored statistics, data analysis, and the R statistical programming language over several semesters (with consistent 5 out of 5 ratings) for high school, college, and graduate students.
Research Methodology
1st Year - Postgrad PSY 2405, MTHD 509, STAT 511Because of my background in psychology, I can teach the pros and cons of real study designs, using examples that aren't heavy on technical terms. I'm also familiar with how statistics dovetails with research methods (when a study can be saved by the right model and when it can't).
Psychology
1st Year - Postgrad PSYS-500, PSYS-501, PSYS-507, ASMT-500, PSYS-504, ASMT-501, CLIN-500, PSYS-509, STAT-510, PSYS-511I have both Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Psychology. I have previously tutored in the subject: helping students to understand the scientific articles underlying the subject, helping them draft scientific papers, literature reviews, and reports, and covering course content.
School Tutoring
Statistics
1st Grade - 12th GradeI have tutored high school students in statistics before (with consistent 5 out of 5 ratings). Parents and teachers consistently notice improvement when I work with a student (often a letter grade or more).
