Epidemiology Tutoring FAQ
The fundamentals and advanced concepts of epidemiology are core parts of many graduate programs, such as public health. If you are struggling with the various concepts, projects, or case applications of this subject, Varsity Tutors can help you connect with premier epidemiology tutoring. Highly skilled tutors offer specialized resources and individualized tutoring sessions that can help boost your scores and lead you toward success in epidemiology courses.
Epidemiology introduces students to biostatistics as it is applied to public health problems. The course allows students to distinguish between epidemiology and biostatistics in the prevention of disease and in the overall improvement of public health. Whether you are learning to compute basic statistics and analyze data models, or to evaluate the morbidity and mortality of a population, tutors can assist you in successfully comprehending these concepts. Use the right kind of study support that you need in order to ace genetic applications of epidemiology and understand the impact and influence of the study on national and local public health policy. Instead of struggling to calculate sensitivity and chi-squared statistics on your own, rely on the support that a private epidemiology tutor provides. Whatever unit you are trying to master in the course, these tutors have the expertise and experience to teach you the material.
Private epidemiology tutors can schedule your tutoring sessions at the times and locations of your choosing to foster convenience and comfort. They are available to meet for one-on-one sessions in person, or you can work together face-to-face online. If your academic goals include better grades, better scores, and a better understanding of the subject material as a whole, epidemiology tutoring can help you meet your objectives. Private tutoring provides you the opportunity to ask as many questions as you need, and to work at your own pace. This ensures that you fully grasp the concepts you are reviewing before moving on to something else. You can work on a specific element of epidemiology for as long as you need until you truly comprehend the material. This individualized focus will leave you as prepared as you can be for tackling your coursework. Whether you need someone to help edit your advanced paper for a publication, provide feedback for a case study analysis, or simply serve as a study coach to help you prepare for an upcoming exam, instructors are available nationwide to help you accomplish these tasks. In addition to being flexible when scheduling your tutoring sessions, tutors also tailor the lesson plan to your specific learning style, strengths, and weaknesses, in order to maximize the potential for outstanding results.
Regardless of the areas you struggle with in your epidemiology course, a private tutor is there to help you succeed. They will review with you the differences and relationship of infectivity, virulence, and pathogenicity. If you are having difficulty grasping the elements of host-agent relationships, your tutor can help. Your tutor can help you learn the extrinsic determinants of disease so that come class time, you can confidentially discuss the effects of climate and soil on the spread of common diseases. Your epidemiology tutor will use whatever knowledge and resources they have access to ensure that you are able to overcome your learning obstacles and develop a holistic understanding of the subject.

Recent Epidemiology Tutoring Session Notes
The student and I continued reviewing the math section in her practice ACT prep book. She was able to answer some of the questions on her own, but did need refreshing on some math concepts. She mentioned that she wanted to review rational expressions/equations and square roots. We also reviewed some geometry (properties of triangles). We also spent 1/2 hr. on English review. We reviewed subject/verb agreement, possessive nouns/pronouns, and word choice questions. Overall, she did very well.
In today's session, I went over 30-60-90 triangles and 45-45-90 triangles. I then helped the student work through his homework assignment. Although he did not understand what to do at the beginning of the session, he had a much better understanding of the topics by the end of our meeting. I looked over his last Chemistry test, and we briefly went over the questions that he answered incorrectly. Progress was good overall.
Examined the Reading section of the ACT today. Student's achievement has been inconsistent on past tests and diagnostics; scores very well when she finishes the test, but sometimes has trouble completing the section. Her reading speed and comprehension are excellent, so we focused mostly on test mechanics: how to prioritize each passage to maximize time for examination, and how to attack each individual question to rely on context and logic. I saw very good progress, and will move on to deconstructing the Science section in our next meeting.
Today I actually worked with Student 1and Student 2 as well as Student 3. Student 2 had a review packet of proofs that she wanted to work through. She's getting better at them, though on some she will still get stuck with how to start it. Student 3 had his calculus review, and had a few derivatives that he was getting stuck on due to multiple parts of chain rule and product rule, which I helped him work through. Then Student 1 just had a few questions over the triangle inequality unit, and then we worked through a few problems in her review packet, which she seemed really comfortable with.
The student and I went over the harder math problems together. She is very good at math, but there are some concepts that she has not covered in school that I wanted to make sure she was comfortable with. We spend a lot of time learning new concepts that are mainly seen in trigonometry. We also went over English passages and plan to cover science and writing tomorrow.
Went over Lewis dot structures in chemistry, and the application of VSEPR theory to the structures. Used physical models to demonstrate VSEPR shapes. In math, covered complex solutions to quadratic equations.
