Forget about your fears – statistics is not math, and you can do it!

This course is based on a very readable textbook – Statistics: A Tool for Social Research (by Joseph Healey), as well as a very user-friendly software – SPSS. As fast as just one semester, you will walk out of my classroom and become the “go-to” person among your class, your office, and your nieces and nephews.

You will have so much fun with me in the process of producing colorful and informative graphs and tables while stepping more in-depth into a subject with hypothesis tests and even multiple regression.

Remember to update your resume as you complete my course! Statistics will not only open new job opportunities but also update your thinking patterns – say hi to a new you with logical and quantitative minds!
