Alkema Lewis’ facilitation and coaching have been transformative.

Her emphasis on effective principalship, collaborative learning, and robust problem-solving and decision-making skills ensured I was well-equipped to lead and inspire school communities.
S. Smith, Assistant Principal - D19 BK
The Leadership Training Ms. Lewis provided gave me the confidence and knowledge to be a voice for my colleagues, sharing ideas and strategies with the administration when I was unsure of a response. I learned to encourage a few of my colleagues to evaluate and rethink some of their long-term teaching practices to provide a more supportive outcome for student progress. I appreciate the training, scenarios, and guidance.
I look forward to learning and growing as a professional leader.
