Beginner level coding for R - science, statistics, and ecology

From 26 € /h

Becoming a scientist? Statistics and coding skills are an important part of your everyday job. Learn early, practice, and with no time you will be flying through your data analyses before everybody else. Using coding software such as R allows you to interpret and analyse meaningful data and plot beautiful graphs using base R or multiple libraries.
I will teach you the basic syntax of R, how to understand and 'think' like R, and build on those skills to do more complicated statistics (ANOVA's, PCA, GLM's, mixed-effects models, etc.) and - the most important(!) - how to plot beautiful graphs!

I would recommend this level of tutoring to college and university level students (that's not to deter any of you ambitious secondary/high school students, or people with a general interest, you are more than welcome!). I have put beginner level as the class title, but I am happy to teach higher levels. We can tailor the class to you if you want to focus on syntax, loops, statistics, models, figures/plots, etc. It's up to you! :)

About me: I am a PhD researcher who is specialising in Arctic marine ecology with a solid background in marine science and ecology. I am currently based in Finland, Europe, but I am a UK national and studied at both St Andrews University and Southampton University in the UK. I am flexible with timings so if the times listed below don't suit you please contact me and we can organise a time that works for us both.

Extra information

Students would need a laptop and a little bit of free memory space to download the R software. (I can help with this)

► EXPERT STATISTICS, DATA ANALYTICS, MACHINE LEARNING & AI TUTOR FROM SWITZERLAND
► UNIVERSITY, FOUNDATION, IB, A-LEVEL & INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL SUPPORT

I completed my Master’s degree in Business Information Systems at a Swiss University of Applied Sciences, where my academic background strongly combined mathematics, statistics, data analysis, analytical thinking and problem-solving. This technical and data-oriented foundation shaped the way I teach today: clearly, logically and with a strong focus on real understanding.

For many years, I have successfully supported students in Statistics, Data Analytics, Machine Learning and AI. My main focus is especially on Statistics — from basic descriptive statistics to advanced statistical methods, hypothesis testing, regression, probability distributions and interpretation of results.

I mainly use R for statistical analysis, data handling, visualisation and practical exercises. My goal is not only to help students calculate results, but to make sure they understand what the results mean and how to explain them correctly.

► STATISTICS, DATA ANALYTICS & AI SUPPORT

► STATISTICS & PROBABILITY
I help students understand descriptive statistics, probability, random variables, distributions, sampling, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, p-values, correlation, regression and statistical interpretation. My lessons focus on explaining the logic behind each method, not just applying formulas.

► APPLIED STATISTICS WITH R
I support students in using R for statistical analysis, data cleaning, visualisation, hypothesis testing, regression models and interpretation of outputs. Students learn how to connect theory, calculation, code and real meaning step by step.

► QUANTITATIVE METHODS & RESEARCH STATISTICS
I help students with statistical methods used in business, economics, psychology, social sciences, science and university research. This includes choosing the correct test, understanding assumptions, interpreting results and presenting findings clearly.

► DATA ANALYTICS & DATA SCIENCE
I support students with data preparation, exploratory data analysis, visualisation, dashboards, summary statistics and practical interpretation. The focus is always on understanding the data and drawing meaningful conclusions.

► MACHINE LEARNING & AI FOUNDATIONS
For students working with modern data topics, I also provide support in the foundations of Machine Learning and AI, including regression, classification, clustering, model evaluation and practical applications. These topics are explained from a statistical point of view, so students understand the logic behind the models.

► UNIVERSITY, FOUNDATION & INTERNATIONAL COURSES
I support students in Statistics, Data Analytics, Business Analytics, Quantitative Methods, Econometrics, Research Methods and technical modules. I help with exam preparation, assignments, projects and practical data analysis tasks.

► HOW I TEACH

► I FOCUS ON REAL STATISTICAL UNDERSTANDING.
Statistics becomes much easier when students understand why a method is used, what the result means and how to interpret it correctly.

► I EXPLAIN FORMULAS STEP BY STEP.
Difficult formulas, tests and models are broken down into simple, logical parts so students can follow the reasoning clearly.

► I CONNECT THEORY WITH R PRACTICE.
Students learn not only the statistical theory, but also how to apply it in R, read the output and explain the result in proper academic language.

► I HELP STUDENTS CHOOSE THE RIGHT METHOD.
Many students struggle with deciding whether to use a t-test, chi-square test, ANOVA, regression or another method. I teach students how to recognise the correct approach from the question or dataset.

► I TRAIN INTERPRETATION AND EXAM TECHNIQUE.
Students learn how to structure statistical answers, write clear conclusions, explain p-values, interpret confidence intervals and present results professionally.

► I ADAPT EVERY LESSON TO THE STUDENT.
Some students need help with theory, others with R coding, assignments, research projects or exam preparation. I adjust every lesson to the student’s exact course, level and goals.

► YEARS OF EXPERIENCE WITH STATISTICS, DATA & UNIVERSITY STUDENTS

Over the years, I have successfully supported students from demanding academic programmes, helping them strengthen their statistical understanding, improve their analytical thinking and achieve excellent progress in Statistics, Data Analytics, Machine Learning and AI.

► ONLINE LESSONS

► Interactive whiteboard
► Clear digital notes
► Step-by-step statistical explanations
► R support for data analysis
► Exam preparation
► Assignment and project guidance
► Practical examples with real datasets
