Question:
Abalone Abalones are edible sea snails that include over 100 species. A researcher is working with a model that uses the number of rings in an abalone’s shell to predict its age. He finds an observation that he believes has been miscalculated. After deleting this outlier, he redoes the calculation. Does it appear that this outlier was exerting very much influence?

I believe teaching is 1% Inspiration and 99% Perspiration.
I motivate students to write better and have a transparent thought process to improve writing. I have helped not only students, but corporate employees to deliver a better presentation, students write better essays for students applying to business schools and applying overseas and filling College applications.
I am a certified instructor for TOEFL, IELTS, and have done B.A. in Journalism from University of California. I have practiced journalism and screenwriting for five years and then moved to full-time teaching.
Besides teaching, I also coach Business Houses and Corporate in Public Relations and Corporate Communication and also take Business English and Corporate Communication. To date, I have worked with more than 300 Corporate Houses training to more than 5000 Employees of all age groups.
With students and college applications, we discuss at length to understand student’s thought processes, and then I assist a student in writing on their own. I work as a coach, mentor, and guide, and at the end of the session, the student himself/herself. I don’t write on behalf of any student, but I made a student writing
For students preparing for CAT, GMAT, GRE, IELTS, TOEFL, and Competitive Exams:
I prefer to teach grammar from the book by Wren and Martin. For reading comprehension sections, we do careful analysis and discuss before proceeding to questions and suitable choices. Out of 4 options, first, we eliminate the wrong choice; Second eliminate which looks to be the deliberately wrong choice; Third elimination is even more tempting wrong choice, and finally, we select the Best Answer. For doing, all these works, I do back-seat and assist students in developing critical ability and logical thinking.
I have helped students to improve vocabulary building, and after a few sessions in a month, students have started speaking English with less hesitation and have gain confidence. Though my asking Tuition Price is higher than the average rate students, have found immense value in learning with me.
