About Nia
Hello! My name is Nia, and I am passionate about helping students excel in science. I hold a professional certification in Biology for grades 7-12 and have a Master's degree in Adolescent Education Biology. I am pursuing a Ph.D. in Anthropology and Education at Teachers College, Columbia University. With years of experience teaching middle and high school students, I specialize in making science engaging and accessible. I can teach middle school, high school, and college-level students, providing the appropriate level of instruction and support for each stage of learning. Whether it's help with biology concepts, exam preparation, or understanding complex scientific principles. I am here to support you every step of the way on your educational journey. Let's work together to achieve your academic goals and build a strong foundation in science and social sciences!

I use student-centered and hands-on learning methods. I make science relatable by connecting it to real-life experiences and cultural backgrounds. I use discussions, case studies, assignments, experiments, and technology to engage different learning styles.
A Typical Lesson Structure:
1. Introduction: Start with a warm-up activity or question related to the lesson. Review previous material.
2. Direct Instruction: Introduce the new concept with clear explanations and visuals. Provide real-world examples.
3. Guided Practice: Engage students in a hands-on activity or experiment. Facilitate group work or pair activities.
4. Independent Practice: Assign individual tasks for students to apply what they’ve learned. Offer support and feedback as needed.
5. Assessment and Review: Use quick assessments like quizzes or exit tickets to check understanding. Review key points and answer any questions.
I am certified in Biology for grades 7-12 and have a strong background in social sciences (Anthropology especially). I specialize in making science engaging and accessible for all students, including those with special needs and English Language Learners. My culturally responsive approach ensures that every student feels valued and understood.
My lessons are designed for middle and high school students, particularly those in grades 7-12. I cater to a wide range of learners, including those with IEPs, ELLs, and students from diverse backgrounds.
