As one of Wyzants top 10% tutors for 2020, I helped college students and graduate students with a variety of subjects including Statistics, Bayesian Statistics, Biostatistics, Generalized linear model (linear model, logistic model, mixed model etc.), Multivariate Statistics, Time Series, and Econometrics. I have experience being a Math TA at McMaster University for more than 5 years, where I tutored undergraduate students taking levels 1-4 statistic courses and level 1-2 mathematics courses....
Reviews
Dr. Tao is a highly competent tutor for Bayesian Statistics and led sessions with confidence on topics such as Inverse Gamma, Gibbs Sampling, Metropolis Algorithm, etc. The class lectures I had only covered the math, but Dr. Tao was able to speak to the big-picture why, broke down each problem into clear steps and shared shortcuts I never would've learned otherwise. After not taking Statistics or Calculus for 20 years, she was patient and encouraging with my progress. Highly Recommend Dr. Tao if you want to master anything statistics - book her now! :)
- Iberia Z. from San Francisco, CA
She was understanding and able to provide clarity in the short time they had together. She also was able to provide a last minute lesson when our previously scheduled tutor did not show up. Thank you, Tao!
- Tara M. from Tucson, AZ
Dr. Tao has a strong mathematical background and is incredibly knowledgeable. She is patient when explaining problems with great detail and consistently reinforces important concepts. I'm very grateful to have Dr. Tao as my tutor; she has been a tremendous help.
- Mandy S. from East Brunswick, NJ
Tao was able to break down the esoteric details of time series proof derivations to a level that was easily understandable to me. She definitely knows what she's talking about when it comes to univariate and multivariate time series methods. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing assistance with statistical forecasting!
- Jacob L. from Minneapolis, MN
Tao's explanation is detailed enough to help me understand even though I am lacking basic knowledge. She's a greater tutor who knows how to teach an advanced course in small and easier steps. Language also helps.
- Lang Z. from Brookline, MA
The Best Tutor , really I enjoyed working with her . She clarified well and guided me to understand what I didn?t understand . I am looking forward to work with her again and again .
- Hanan S. from Kent, OH
Tao always knows how to explain in a way that I am able to understand. She is so absolutely great!
- Kate S. from Austin, TX
Tao was extremely helpful. She explained everything step by step and very clearly to where I could truly understand. Best tutor I?ve found for upper level statistics!
- Kate S. from Austin, TX
She helped me to understand R studio and work through predictive modeling using R Studio. She is very patient and will work to make sure you understand the process. I would highly recommend her.
- Steven M. from Rockville, MD
It took over 2 weeks to find a tutor that was comfortable tutoring beyond an AP statistics/Intro to Statistics course. Tao took the time to review and explained everything down to its basics. 10/10 would do another session.
- Naelly N. from San Jose, CA
I learned R with TAO. She is flexible and dedicated. Facilitated my learning at my own pace, and good with how and what I wanted to learn Knows her material Very smart!
- Dr. Judy K. from Lincolnwood, IL
Tao is a great tutor. She is really thorough and clear in what she teaches. She works with you consistently and explains everything step by step! She is one of the best tutors I had in R and Mathematical Statistics. She clears the confusion and puts your life at ease in the midst of the most troublesome statistics and probability woes. I fully recommend Tao as your next tutor.
- Jack J. from San Francisco, CA
Tao was very thoughtful in determining if she could assist and accommodated my requested timeline. She also persevered through connection issues (the Wyzant online tool could be better) and was very helpful. She followed up after the lesson with more notes and suggestions. Fantastic!
- Alex H. from Sacramento, CA
I was struggling with reviewing some statistics-based problems in one of my upper level genetics courses and her tutelage really helped clarify a lot! Couldn't recommend her more!
- Fope O. from Columbus, OH
Tao is extremely knowledgeable with Statistics and the R software. She shared helpful tips and short cuts and was able to answered all of my questions thoroughly. She is very patient so if you are technically challenged like me, she is your person.
- Tasha G. from Chicago, IL
She really helped me make sense of the topics for my final. The way she broke things down really helped me understand what I had to do. I would recommend her to any student having issues with statistics.
- Lauren R. from Briarcliff Manor, NY
There were several subjects I needed help from Mathematical Statistics to using R with Time Series and Tao was spot on when we used the platform. She helped me with a fitting a SARIMA model and understanding how the graphs work and made sense. She is the tutor you need, worth every penny!
- Yoav P. from State College, PA
Before Finding Tao, I had been struggling to understand the core relationships in my Mathematical Statistics course. Tao helped me connect the dots and see the underlying connections that the material had in an easy way that my own teacher was unable to do. Thanks to her I am fully able to grasp this difficult material and if you are struggling with hard statistics classes I highly recommend Tao for help and knowledge in the material!
- Adriana R. from Miami, FL
Tao was wonderful, she accommodates my schedule and went above and beyond to review my class notes and book to make sure she was teaching me the same way my instructor was.
- Jacqueline P. from Minneapolis, MN
Tao was really helpful with explaining concepts in statistics (grad level). We went over OLS regressions, underlying assumptions and tests. She is very hands on and answered some of my questions in R. She prepares for the session in advance and then follows up with answers if there was anything left unanswered during the lesson. Would definitely work with her again.
