About Me

I am a 33-year-old lecturer at a university in Lisbon. I currently teach economics, but I previously taught quantitative methods for both undergrad and postgrad students. In addition to my experiences in academia, I have also worked extensively in public policy, writing advice for policy-makers based on rigorous evidence reviews.

Tutor Experience

I have tutored several students from top universities in the UK, helping them to achieve top marks in their quantitative methods coursework. In particular, I like helping students with end-of-course quantitative research projects. I am also an experienced lecturer and teaching assistant, having taught quantitative methods at the LSE and other top universities in Portugal. My approach is to start very easy, and - as the frog that finds himself boiling - progressively get to the hard stuff. I am also an experienced researcher and have successfully completed several projects. Furthermore, I helped guide LSE students in the quantitative projects, as well as marked them.

I can help with the following topics:

- Principles of econometrics/OLS
- Spatial quasi-experimental methods (e.g. spatial regression discontinuity design)
- GIS in QGis or R
- Coming up with research questions
- Writing a research paper

Topic Expertise

Applied econometrics, including quasi-experimental methods such as:
- Propensity score matching
- Difference-in-differences
- Instrumental variables
- Regression discontinuity design
- Randomized control trials

I can also help with the following software:
- R
- STATA
- ArcGIS
- QGIS
