About Thomas

Stuck on a statistics course, SPSS assignment, or the data analysis for your thesis? You are in the right place.

I am 26 and graduated with my bachelor's degree in Applied Physics at The Hague University. After my degree, I spent years building machine learning trading algorithms: designing models, validating results with statistics, and reporting the conclusions to a non-technical advisory board. Statistics is not theory to me, it is my daily work.

During my studies, I was tutoring in my hometown Haarlem for middle school and college students, helping them prepare for their exams. Next to data science, I teach karate as a black belt, so explaining difficult things in simple steps is what I do on both fronts.

About the lesson

Statistics is often taught as a list of formulas and rules. Yet the why question deserves an answer: why this test, why this sample size, what does this p-value actually tell you? Once you understand what the numbers mean, the formulas follow naturally.

During my classes, I emphasize the application. We work with real data where possible: a t-test means more when you run it on actual numbers in SPSS or Python than when it stays on paper. This results in improved memory and understanding. Once a subject truly clicks, you will understand it for a long time.

To verify your understanding, I'll ask a platter of questions and bring multiple scenarios. You do the thinking like you would during an exam, while I break the problem down into smaller bits. I help with statistics courses, SPSS assignments, thesis data analysis, and exam preparation for college and university students.

A class starts beforehand: you tell me what you would like to discuss, preferably with some images of your coursework or dataset, so I can prepare a well-thought-out program. Lessons take place online with screen sharing and a digital whiteboard. The lesson plan looks like:

* Checking what knowledge is present
* Presenting the goal of the class
* Explaining the new subject matter
* Exercising with varying scenarios
* Summary

I hold a bachelor's degree in Applied Physics as a reference of my expertise. Feel free to discuss the subjects you need beforehand, so I can estimate how well I can assist you. My goal is that you walk into your exam or thesis defense calm and confident.

During first year in university, I had algebra and calculus for my financial engineering degree. I quickly hit a brick wall during study and I couldn't pass it. I heard of Thomas from other friends and for a good reason. He told me my fundamentals with mathematics ware incomplete and helped me fill the gaps. Fast forward, the subjects don't give me anxiety anymore and actually started liking them! I surely vouch him as a tutor.

Thomas helped me during high school with mathematics and physics, which were never my favourite subjects. Luckily, his instructions and context really boiled things down. No unnecessary information, only what's required. Moreover, he gave me examples of household items and how they apply to the subjects, giving me more appreciation for the subject and making learning easier. Highly recommend him as a teacher!
