Need Weekly Tutor for PhD-level Statistics Course

I'm in a PhD program and my statistics course is killing me. The book, Khan Adademy, and YouTube are just not cutting it for me.  I need a tutor who understands statistics, has familiarity with SPSS software (this is a MUST), and can sit with me for about an hour each week to go through my homework and the questions I have.  I can pay $50/hour and can meet anywhere within 10 miles of Berkeley. I have a very flexible work schedule so almost any day could work. Homework is due on Tuesdays! :)

Hi,

I don't have a tutor recommendation but I did read you needed help with SPSS software. While I was doing my masters I similarly had a tough time with stats - I feel your pain. I found this website https://statistics.laerd.com/ that gives step by step instruction on how to use SPSS software (also very affordable rates for students). It was such a godsend! Most of the stats tests I needed were covered in their tutorials however some of the more complicated stats I needed they did not cover (I had to use R and begged my stats prof to help me with that). Not sure if this will be helpful to you but I thought I'd send suggest it as I was in a similar spot as you. 

Good luck!!!

Hi

Im psychologist with a little extra time on my hands. I’d be happy to help. But you may be entitled to tutoring from your program. When I was at CSPP I saw a stats tutor an hour a week. It’s also totally normal to struggle w stats  .
