Kierra Lewis
Who is Miss Lewis? |
Miss Kierra Lewis is a daughter, niece, friend, grand-daughter, and most importantly a teacher.
I recently began my career as an educator this year. I will officially have my very own fourth grade math and science class starting August 2016, and words cannot explain the joy that I have. I was one of those people who ran from their calling in a life and thought that I knew what I should do. I started my college career as a psychology major, with the hopes of becoming a marriage counselor or even end up in a school helping students. After a year passed, I felt uneasy about my decision and decided that was not for me. I prayed and with time I was lead to teaching. I was never one of those people who knew from the start that I wanted to teach. I would always hear, throughout high school, that I would make a great teacher, but it was never something that I saw myself doing. As I begin to follow God's lead and started taking classes dealing with education and becoming a teacher, there was a fire lit inside of me that I never knew was there. I enjoyed being in the classroom, I loved helping students learn, my heart was in this profession, teaching was for me. Four years later I walked across the stage graduating with a degree in early childhood education, and walking into my destiny as a teacher and one day leader of a school.
