Hello! I'm Kyetta, but you can call me Mrs. KiKi! I was born and raised in Brooksville, MS, but I have lived in 4 different cities. I love children, and guest what, college students too! I have been a... n Academic Coach for 4 years, as well as an Intervention Specialist. I love seeing the light bulbs in students' heads go off as they learn and acquire new reading skills.
