Tutoring
Average student ratings for lecturing and tutoring in master-level evaluations (Applied Multivariate Data Analysis, Erasmus University Rotterdam).
He was one of the best professors I have ever had. He could explain extremely well, he patiently listened to our struggles, and he tried to make a difference. It made me truly feel that he cared about his students.
The best tutor I have ever had. Very patient and stuck with a problem until he knew everybody understood. You can see he has a real passion to teach statistics.
I really appreciated his enthusiasm and his true interest in guiding us through this difficult terrain. He did an excellent job at making us feel at ease and interested in the subject matter.
He provided detailed explanations of difficult concepts and made them simple, even for students with little statistical background. Overall, he is really good at teaching.
Very open to our opinions, super helpful and clear, and very interactive. He made statistics interesting. He went above and beyond.
The professor gave us useful exercises and showed how to run them, get the results, and interpret them. I wish all the courses were like this.
Educational philosophy
The goal is to make complex topics easier to understand without making them shallow.
Courses and materials draw on Dr. Miloš Kankaraš's interdisciplinary work across psychology, education, social policy, wellbeing, gender equality, and sustainability, paired with deep expertise in psychometrics, data analysis, and evaluation.
Courses use applied examples, cases, frameworks, templates, report logic, assessment materials, and decision contexts from rich professional experience.
The learning design is informed by educational psychology, university teaching experience, and research on how people develop complex skills.
Programs connect knowledge to current skill needs, workplace change, employability, skill mismatches, and professional development priorities.
Materials are structured, visual, easy to navigate, and built to make serious learning more usable, enjoyable, and effective.
