Description

Comprehensive IB MYP 4 & 5 Design tutoring and academic support focused on helping students develop creative thinking, technical skills and confidence in applying the MYP Design Cycle to real-world problems.

At NIA EduSkills, students are guided through both Digital Design and Product Design, learning how to investigate problems, understand user needs, develop design specifications, generate ideas, create solutions, test outcomes and evaluate improvements.

Our approach combines design thinking, creativity, technology, prototyping and problem-solving, while supporting students in meeting MYP assessment criteria and building a strong foundation for future studies in Design Technology, Engineering, Architecture, Computing and related fields.
