Overview
This self-paced, fully online course will take you from 0 knowledge to analyzing datasets in no time, without sacrificing understanding!
The course is compact, practical, and straight to the point.
I’ve carefully curated the content and refined my approach over many years, drawing from my university lectures, and (if I can say so without sounding pretentious) I really believe in this material.
The material will include videos, slides, code notebooks, exercises, and references to books, blogs, and other courses to help you go further, when appropriate.
Completing this course will help you:
- Understand different data types
- Choose impactful visualizations for the data
- Choose suitable statistical models and tests to make clear statistical inferences
- Analyze real-world datasets in a meaningful way
Who is the course for?
This course assumes no background knowledge and requires only basic high-school level mathematics.
It is designed for science and industry, focusing on clarity, rigour, and practical aspects of statistical analyses.
About the instructor
I’ve been teaching statistics in 2 world-class universities for many years, where I consistently receive exceptional student evaluations : students value my patience, clear style of exposition, empathy, and passion for the subject.
I’ve also been a consultant in projects all over the world, in business and academia.
This unique blend of pedagogy, diverse experience, and hands-on work will permeate all throughout the course.
I want you to learn statistics the right way, how I wish it was taught to me!
Learn Statistics The Right WAY
- Give you tools to start working independently right from the start
- Draw on my wealth on real-world experience to give you examples and insights you can't find in any traditional curriculum
- Avoid unnecessary complications, yet don't shy away from teaching things in a way that you will truly understand
- Point you, the learner, towards more resources so you meet more advanced material when you're ready!
My Misson?
To elevate statistics education and practice.
This means, no dumbing down of content : I will elevate you, the learner, to meet the material at the right time for you to master it!
