Jamia Dock “A molder of dreams!”

As I observed her as an educator coach, a student facilitator of learning and a motivational speaker to all, I characterize her as a molder of dreams. Where dreams seem impossible and goals seem unattainable, I saw minds transformed. Her tenacity and love for education and humans take on new meaning! “If you can believe it, if you can dream it, then you can achieve it” comes to life in her interactions with those she comes in contact with. She’s a molder of minds and character.

- Betty Newell, School Counselor

I became a better teacher because of Dr. Dock's approach to education. She was able to connect with the students in a short amount of time. The students that usually have a more difficult time staying focused in the classroom were able to. I always valued her input as she provided plenty of resources other than the material from the school.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Dr. Mia. She was patient and accessible at all times. Anything that I had a question about, she had an answer for. Her services are a walking encyclopedia.

Over the years we have had the pleasure of working with Climbing Higher Heights and Dr. Dock in the areas of social studies and effectiveness of instruction. She was very instrumental in the support and improvements our students and teachers made in preparation for the state assessment. Dr. Dock provided resources to support instruction, as well as model and collaborated with our teachers. I would recommend her services!
