Howdy!
I’m Shaniaya, an AP Government educator and legal studies professional who helps students finally understand the law, master writing, and pass tough classes with confidence.

I hold a Master’s degree in Legal Studies from Texas A&M University with certifications in Energy, Environmental, and Public Policy, and a B.A. in History with a minor in African American Studies from Texas Southern University. I specialize in making complex concepts simple — from constitutional law to public policy, legal writing, and political science.

✨ What students get with me:

Clear, step-by-step breakdowns of difficult concepts

High-quality writing support (legal writing, essays, editing)

Engaging explanations rooted in real-world examples

A supportive tutor who actually teaches, not just reviews answers

Tools for ADHD learning, focus, and study skills

I’ve taught AP Government & Political Science, mentored policy researchers, and worked across law, energy, sustainability, and public health — so I bring experience from multiple fields directly into each lesson.

If you want a tutor who is patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in your success, I’ve got you. Let’s get you confident and ready to win in your course.
