West Instructional Services

“I’m just doing what I’m supposed to do, and I’m loving it.” Dr. Wycondia West West Instructional Services 1st grade teacher (16 years), Reading Intervention “You don’t know if you don’t know.” Dr. Wycondia West began as a 1st Grade Teacher, transitioned into tutoring and after building the confidence to bet on herself, launched West Instructional Services. Over the course of her impressive career, she has shifted from early childhood education, to supporting students for ACT and college readiness, and now providing professional development for the teachers, giving them the tools they need to support all students. “Do what you can with what you have.” Although she had a great mix of diverse teachers growing up, a young Wycondia didn’t know the history of her community, and the close connection to Africatown. Dr. West speaks on the freedom she felt after launching her company (although, entrepreneurship ain’t for the faint of heart), connecting the dots for students as they face struggles and a message for entrepreneurial educators. Stay with your gift, find your niche… and remember, “If you can solve a problem, you got a business.”
