Have you had the opportunity to do what you love to do and get paid for it? It’s awesome. That is what makes our family’s experience here in Kenya so rich and fulfilling. After working in the I.T. Business for over 15+ years, I now have the privilege of teaching, coaching and mentoring an awesome group of young people here at Rosslyn Academy. Our two daughters both attend Rosslyn with Rachel finishing high school and Hannah just beginning her grade 4 journey.

Born in Nyeri and grew up in Magadi Soda where to date, I consider it the best hottest (literaly) place for children to grow up in. Back then, this small town had only one bus that did only one back and forth trip to Nairobi daily. If one overslept, that was it. One had to wait till the next day. The situation was so bad, that one had to make sure that the bus driver knew you were traveling, so that he would hoot loudly from a far at 4:00am! This is all in the past now …

I am originally from Louisiana, but moved to Texas as a teenager. My wife, Jane, and I met at Wheaton College in Illinois. We have three children, Elizabeth, Christopher, and Michael. Texas was our home until we came to Kenya in 1997. Before coming to Rosslyn, I taught for 8 years in The Woodlands, Texas; and for 5 years at a Kenyan school in Mombasa.
Favorite subjects guaranteed to get Mr. Loewer “off-topic”:
* PET Scans: In graduate school, my physics research was on Positron Emission Tomography (a medical imaging process).
* Fractals & Chaos: I spent a number of years reading everything I could about fractals and chaos, and enormous amounts of time working with a team of programmers developing a software program called Fractint for generating fractals.
* Computer Programming: Back in the Dark Ages before graphing calculators were common in high schools, I wrote a graphing program and a matrix calculator program that were used in schools. (Thank goodness we have graphing calculators now.)
* Reverse Polish Notation Calculators
Math Topics:
* Flatland
* Hypercomplex and Quaternion Numbers
Physics Topics:
* Relativity
* Quantum Mechanics, Chaos Theory, and Free Will
Other Topics:
* Juggling and Unicycle Riding: Ask me about my stitches.
* Board Games: My offer of a soda to any student who can beat me in either Checkers (British: Draughts) or in Mill (Nine Men’s Morris) still stands. I also play a mean game of the coastal version of Bao (a Mancala type game).

I am thankful for our Father’s calling to my family to join Rosslyn Academy this year. This is our first calling outside our home country and we are excited to grow and learn from the Kenyan and Rosslyn community. My vocational background includes teaching in public schools, collegiate coaching and private and public school administration. The enjoyment of this profession comes from watching young ladies and men grow in their spiritual, and personal maturity as they search for God’s calling in their lives. It is always a blessing to see or hear from former students who share their stories of where they are called. In my leisure time, I enjoy reading, watching sports (if a TV is available), exercising or playing with my son.

I am a recent addition to the staff this year to give the Science department specialists in the three major sciences of Physics, Biology and Chemistry. I come from Australia with some 36 years of teaching experience in a variety of school types and systems. These include 28 years in public education in New South Wales (rural and mining locations), Northern Territory (Alice Springs) and Western Australia. One of those years was an exchange position in a community college in northern British Columbia, Canada (Terrace) instructing their first year university chemistry course. The 8 years before coming to Kenya were in Christian Education in 2 country schools in New South Wales.
I trust and pray that God will enable me to use this experience fully in educating Rosslyn students. It is exciting for me to be in Kenya and to be teaching within an North American system. It is great to be part of the excellent team of teachers serving the Rosslyn community.
