Probability and Statistics at the University Level

Translated by GoogleSee original

From 15 € /h

The use of Statistics is fundamental in any university degree and for all professions. This course is developed, starting from scratch, until mastering the basic concepts for handling statistics as a tool for analyzing information. Additionally, the course will give the student an adequate command of the calculation of probabilities, an area of knowledge completely linked to statistics.

Extra information

Basic knowledge of Algebra and a slight notion (not essential) of Calculus are required.

About Me

Hello, my name is Boris, and I was born and live in Ecuador. I am an electrical engineer with extensive experience as a university professor in the fields of Physics and Mathematics, primarily in the areas of Probability and Statistics. I hold four Master's degrees, most of them related to the field of Mathematical Engineering. I guarantee quality and efficiency in my teaching process. I like to start by understanding the student's strengths and weaknesses in order to develop the former and eliminate the latter. I am convinced that mastering fundamental concepts is key, not only for the student's current challenges but also for future ones. I can work from the fundamental topics of Probability and Statistics to more advanced, specific subjects. I am passionate about the basic sciences, so I would love to help you unlock your potential and accompany you on this wonderful journey through learning about probability and statistics.

I have over 30 years of experience as a university professor in fields related to physics and mathematical engineering. I am an electrical engineer and hold four master's degrees, most of them in the basic sciences. I have taught undergraduate and graduate courses in Ecuador and served as a teaching assistant at a university in the United States.

I believe that a successful teaching process begins with getting to know the student well in order to assess their strengths and weaknesses and design a learning process tailored to their profile. I also believe that the key to learning lies in mastering fundamental concepts, as this will allow the student to face any challenge in their course of study.

Take on the challenges of Probability and Statistics with me. With my experience as a university professor and my passion for the basic sciences, I can develop your strengths and eliminate your weaknesses. Learn the fundamental concepts to overcome any challenge in your curriculum. Let's embark on this journey together!

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

I hold a PhD in Mechanical Engineering and currently work as a post-doctoral researcher in the Aerospace Engineering Faculty at TU Delft (Delft University of Technology).

My extensive teaching experience covers a wide range of engineering courses, including:

- Mathematics: algebra, linear algebra, probability, calculus, differential equations, intellectual math, and advanced engineering mathematics.

- Mechanical Engineering: Statics, Dynamics, Mechanics of materials, Mechanical design, control, vibration, Fluid Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Heat transfer, Engineering drawing, Applied Mechanics, Composite Structures, Flight, Machine Elements, Manufacturing, 3D printing, and more.

- Physics: mechanics, momentum and energy, electricity, charge and current, electric and magnetic fields, waves, particle physics, nuclear decay, astrophysics, cosmology, oscillations, etc.

- CAD/CAM Software: Autocad, Solidworks.

- Mechanical Design Packages: ANSYS, APDL programming, ABAQUS, MATLAB, Symbolic MATLAB, LS-DYNA.

My research and teaching interests are diverse, including:
• Additive manufacturing
• Mechanical metamaterials
• Acoustical metamaterials
• Electromagnetic metamaterials
• Aeroacoustics
• Soft matter and soft robotics
• Fatigue and fracture mechanics
• Experimental mechanics

I understand that not all teachers excel in teaching Engineering and Mathematics courses and explaining their importance to students. Courses with strong mathematical backgrounds may become boring for students who lack a solid mathematical basis. To address this, I take a student-centered approach, starting from the basics to actively engage all students, including those with weaker mathematical backgrounds. I also provide practical examples to demonstrate the real-world significance of what they are learning, inspiring and fostering their interest in the subject matter.

If you have any additional questions before starting a class, please feel free to ask me. I am here to assist! :)

The math, physics, chemistry, and SVT courses of the Swiss maturity program and gymnasium or French programs are done by either in-depth explanations or by a quick course and summary of essential needs according to the case of each student supported by exercises from the book or evaluations and exams from other high schools.
Special program for Matura and Terminales.
As well as for (students in international and European Schools in English, they can have support in Math, Physics, Chemistry and Biology).
For the start of the academic year in Switzerland, support courses for EPSU and ECUS exams.
For the first university year, support courses in Mathematics - Analysis - Matrices - Statistics - Algebra - Geometry - Physics - Mechanics - Electricity - Chemistry - Organic Chemistry - Biology, Geology.
My experience is too long and for years I have learned methods for each case and for each student to fill in their gaps with the best results of Excellent, Very Good, and Good as mentioned by my students.
I can also help students to better prepare for courses and support them to better prepare for the duties of CNED in science subjects.
Guaranteed response within minutes up to 10 hours maximum.

The SAT exam is one of the major steps you need to go through in your life; it's a step that is going to determine your college, your university, and your future as a whole. As with a lot of things in life, it can be a hard step, and there is no shame in asking for help. Here comes my role: I will help you overcome your problems and your difficulties. My job here is to help you achieve your desired results and unlock your potential. Simply put, we will go through every lesson, every unit, and every chapter. We will understand the concept of each lesson, with clear examples to follow. After each one, you will be tested, and after finishing your program, you will be tested on it. That's my plan for my students, so if you are interested, you can easily contact me.
