About Calista
I am a proud graduate of biology education from Nnamdi Azikiwe University and also an auxiliary nurse. I am identified as Miss Uduije Calista. Yes, I have over 6 years of experience teaching senior secondary school biology and also final exam classes like WEAC, NECO etc. I love to apply real-life demonstrative methodologies, by getting the exact specimen to the classroom, for better understanding and where not available I improvise, using explanatory YouTube videos while projecting this for a full view. I still back up with group work in a large class or I give individual projects demanding thorough research all related to the topic in question. I make the images real. For example, I may display the thoracic vertebra of a rat, a fungal growth on decaying bread etc. so real, in essence, the students see, understand and remember vividly for life. I also have some experience in advanced biology. I am passionate about teaching biology because this is how best I can joyfully contribute my little quota towards making the world a better abode and eradicating health issues, illiteracy and poverty some SDGs.

I love to always teach biology from the basic concept of biology and it's branches because from there i would explain the simple biological taxonomy and terminologies so students familiarize themselves better as we advance to the complex ones. While doing this I make sure students always take down small note of keywords, their meaning and definition and together we run through this at end. I look into the spelling of most biological words as these are a major factor that can make or mar a student in exams. I show real life specimens like flowers,bone, fungal or other micro-organisms growth in YouTube videos, plant species etc for the students to see, understand and remember vividly for life. I ensure to make the class entirely active and fun by using demonstrative, explanatory and discussion methods of teaching. I come in to help students with their assignment when necessary and also give them brainstorming and research related home work to motivate them to learn.

I believe one of the major worries about teaching is communication,And on this note give 5 stars to Ms Callista. There's never a barrier between her and students when it comes to impacting knowledge,she goes the extra mile. She sure is good at what she does.
