Statistics is one of my top subjects! I have taken more than 30 hours of coursework in Statistics in my graduate coursework. Statistical methods learned include: descriptive statistics (mean, mode, median, histograms, distributions, etc.), ANOVA, ANCOVA, Repeated Measures, t-test, Regression, Hierarchical Linear Modeling, and bivariate correlations. I also have experience on calculating odds ratios and relative risk. I have books on basic descriptive statistics and biostatistics to demonstrate further application to my students.

My experience has led to three college degrees, and a world of experience housed in science and mathematics. I have also mentored 12 undergraduates as a graduate student. These students have gone on to present projects at professional conferences and have achieved various accomplishments such as being admitted into graduate programs, medical programs, and NASA.
My teaching style is VERY approachable. I like to break down elaborate concepts and apply them directly to everyday occurrences as much as possible. For example, when I would teach middle school students math such as fractions and percentages, I would relate these to money so as not complicate understanding. I also use every day occurrences to explain statistics. For example, if I'm interested in why people decide to buy a car (outcome), I'm interested in miles per gallon of gas, crash safety, and tire tread (independent var ... read more

Experience tutoring math to elementary age children through adults in college. I have earned a BS in Chemical Engineering from the University of New Mexico, and I am working on completing pre-med requirements at the University of Houston Clear Lake. I have completed 15 credit hours in Biological Sciences with a GPA of 4.0. I also have two years of experience as a community mentor, working with elementary school children.
I enjoy teaching children. I normally have a very relaxed style, but I emphasize setting goals and completing the task at hand. I gain a great deal of personal satisfaction in helping others learn. I believe the most important attributes of a good teacher are, 1. keeping the student's best interest in mind, and 2. maintaining a positive attitude and keeping the learning process interesting for the student.

More About This Tutor...

I graduated Cum Laude from the University of Houston with a BS in physics and a minor in mathematics, so I have great experience in physics and mathematics. I pride myself on my grammar skills from writing lab reports and essays. I have tutored many individuals in the subjects of mathematics and sciences.
I enjoy teaching people of all ages. I understand that some people take longer to comprehend certain subjects, particularly complex subjects like sciences and mathematics. I believe that it is necessary to be patient with people when they don't understand something, even if it takes more time than it usually would. Teaching is one of the most important parts of a person's growth, and I want to be a part of that for someone.
