About Me

I am a Market Operations Data Scientist working in the UK Financial Sector, with professional experience across data science, software development and financial markets.

My professional work has included financial-instrument data, pricing analysis, yield curves, predictive modelling and improving operational processes. This allows me to connect technical concepts to realistic business and financial applications rather than teaching them only as abstract theory.

Alongside my industry role, I teach data science online to students from a wide variety of backgrounds. Some are complete beginners, some are studying at university, and others are professionals preparing for a career change or developing new technical skills.

Students often value my ability to break complicated subjects into manageable steps. I use visual representations, everyday analogies and carefully chosen examples so that students understand why a method works rather than memorising commands.

My lessons are patient, structured and adapted to the individual. Whether you are learning your first pandas commands or exploring advanced machine-learning models, we will build from what you already know and work towards a clear objective.

Python is one of the best, if not the best, language to start learning programming. It is also one of the most widely used languages today, especially in cutting-edge areas such as machine learning.

This popularity means that Python is constantly evolving. It offers a wide range of tools and libraries, which are free and very varied.

As an aeronautical engineer, I like to share my knowledge and derive satisfaction from it by teaching and motivating others.

I'm used to working with people of different ages. I believe in the importance of segmenting learning, visualizing progress, setting concrete goals and practicing regularly.

Beyond these general principles, there is no magic rule or method. Some approaches work with some students but not with others. Adaptation to individual needs is therefore the main objective of private lessons. So I will do my best to find what motivates and helps my student.

► 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.

Calculus I, the first course in this extensive mathematics curriculum, teaches students the foundational ideas of limits, derivatives, and how to apply them to real-world issues including rates of change and optimization. Calculus III, which builds on this basis, introduces partial derivatives, multiple integrals, and vector calculus, extending these concepts into several dimensions. When taken as a whole, these calculus courses build the solid analytical foundation and spatial thinking abilities needed for further study in applied mathematics, science, and engineering.

Students study Number Theory concurrently, exploring the complex patterns and characteristics of integers, such as primes, modular arithmetic, divisibility, and the classical theorems that form the basis of much of contemporary computer science and encryption. In addition to this theoretical emphasis, the Numerical Methods course gives students useful computational tools to help them approximate solutions to challenging mathematical problems that are impossible to solve analytically. Students are prepared for a variety of jobs in mathematics, engineering, technology, and other fields by this program, which blends strong theoretical knowledge with algorithmic problem-solving abilities.
