À propos
Taught statistics and quantitative research methodology at Wits University Johannesburg Faculty of Management for over twenty years. I have a PhD in statistics and an MSc in computer science, but more importantly I specialize in making basic concepts clear to students with some challenges in the areas of math and statistics. At the other end of the spectrum I have supervised many successful Masters and PhD students.
Over the years I have helped hundreds of students with all levels of ability and knowledge to understand the surprising implications of concepts like randomness. statistical distributions and probability using spreadsheet models.
Come for a free fifteen minute session to get to know each other and decide how further sessions could be structured.
Topics:: Basic statistics, sampling, probability models, advanced regression, analysis of variance, cluster analysis, factor analysis, structural equation modelling, using Excel, R and SPSS for data analysis, research report and thesis writing.
