About Federico
I am a PhD researcher at UCL working with large empirical datasets — millions of transaction records in my own research, and firm-level survey panels as a visiting researcher at the Bank of England. Before the PhD I spent two years at Frontier Economics producing statistical evidence for competition cases.
UCL MSc and MRes with Distinction, Warwick BSc with First Class Honours, over 400 hours of teaching including as a Teaching Assistant at UCL.
I work daily in R, Stata and Python, and I teach SPSS. More relevant than any of that: I teach statistics to people whose degree is not statistics, and who never expected to need it until a dissertation required one.

Most of the students I work with are in psychology, sociology, education, public health, business or politics. They are competent researchers with a real question, and they have hit a wall because their methods training covered which test to run without ever explaining why, and because nobody taught them the software. That is a teaching failure, not an ability problem, and it is straightforwardly fixable.
I teach the reasoning and the software together, on your data and your research question. You leave each session with output you understand and can defend in a viva, not with results someone else generated.
What I cover:
- Choosing the right test: what your data structure and question actually permit, and what they rule out
t-tests, ANOVA, chi-square, non-parametric alternatives and when the assumptions have failed
- Regression: linear, logistic, multilevel and mixed models, ordinal and count outcomes
- Factor analysis, reliability, scale construction and validation
- Survey data: weighting, missing data, attrition
- Longitudinal and repeated-measures designs
- Power analysis and sample size justification, before you collect rather than after
- Software from the beginning: SPSS, R, Stata — installation, data import, syntax, output
- Reporting to APA or your discipline's convention, including tables and figures
- Preparing to defend your methods under examination
No prior statistics or coding background assumed. I also work with academics and professionals returning to quantitative methods after years away, and with researchers preparing methods sections for publication.
IMPORTANT: To be clear before you get in touch: I teach analysis, I do not do it for you. I will not write your dissertation or run your regressions on your behalf — that is academic misconduct and it puts your degree at risk. What I will do is get you to the point where you understand and can defend every line of your own code and every number in your own results - i.e. you understand what choices to take in the empirical strategy and why.

Federico helped me so much with microeconomics and was truly amazing at explaining everything at a pace that worked for me. He was consistently patient and adapted his teaching strategies to my personal preferences. I would not have achieved the grades I did without his help and can only recommend him to anyone needing extra help with economics. Working on my dissertation with him was one of the best decisions - it made the entire process so much easier for me!
I had the privilege of working with Federico, an exceptional tutor who played a pivotal role in helping me write my master dissertation on AI and brand authenticity. His guidance and expertise were instrumental in achieving a very high grade for my dissertation.
Not only did Federico excel in academic support, but he also went above and beyond to assist me in my job search. His dedication to my success extended beyond the classroom, and I'm truly grateful for his support.
In addition to his professionalism, Federico is a genuinely lovely person to work with. I can’t recommend him enough. He is a true asset and has made a lasting positive impact on my journey.Federico is an exceptional economics tutor. His deep subject knowledge and patient teaching style make complex concepts understandable. He creates a comfortable learning environment, encourages questions, and provides real-world examples, fostering both comprehension and confidence. Federico's tutoring has been invaluable in my academic journey. Highly recommended!
Federico helped me for my Econometrics module in BSC Economics year 2 at university. He was extremely clear, patient and helpful in explaining all the concepts and theorems throughout the year. As someone who struggles with math and statistical coding, he was extremely helpful with both my weekly assignments and my dissertation at the end of the year. I’m very proud of the work that we put in and give all the credit to Federico - I couldn’t recommend him more as a tutor who clearly knows what he’s doing but also, in my experience, adapts to people’s strengths and weaknesses.
I know Federico having worked with him in a consulting firm. I can testify he is a great tutor since he trained me when I started my job in consulting. He helped me develop my skills with coding and data analysis. He has a very clear communication style and a fantastic attitude. In addition to being very knowledgeable and well-prepared
Federico tutored me for university-level Economics subjects, including Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Econometrics and Research in Applied Economics. Federico is very knowledgeable and, most importantly, extremely pedagogical. He tailored his teaching approach to my specific needs, and he excels at conveying complex concepts in a clear and concise manner. During the academic year, I was struggling a lot with those subjects, but Federico helped me to understand the material from the foundations up, and thanks to him I got Firsts (>70% in UK uni, the highest honours) in all my Economics-related modules. I am very thankful and grateful for Federico's help and I cannot recommend him enough.
Federico is an exceptional tutor. His passion for teaching, personalised approach, and unwavering dedication to his students make him outstanding. Federico’s ability to simplify complex concepts and create a comfortable learning environment is commendable. His reliability, punctuality and open communication further highlights his trustworthiness. I definitely recommend Federico as a tutor!
Federico is an incredibly knowledgeable tutor. Having worked with him on a project concerning econometrics I can testify his professionality and punctuality but most importantly the ease with which he explains complex conxepts. Could not reccomend him more.
Federico is an excellent teacher, able to simplify complex matters into understandable and easy to follow explanations. His in depth knowledge and understanding of his subjects make him an incredibly valuable source for anyone studying with his assistance, and his approaches to learning stimulate his students to critical think and use his teachings to maximise their potential. I highly reccomend him as a tutor.
Simply the best - knowledgeable, trustworthy and overall an amazing person. Thank you, Federico, for everything you have done for me!
We met during my master’s degree. Federico is very knowledgeable and exceptionally qualified. He is also excellent at explaining complex concepts.
