JOHN HERNANDEZ

TEACHER & TUTOR

Teaching is my best learning tool, and I make sure I get the best out of it. I started tutoring classmates in High School, which took me to create a Tutoring company in College and the rest is history.

PANELIST & EDUCATOR

I believe that Collaboration and Education operate together. Sharing good practices with others and learning from anyone is one of the most pleasurable takeaways in my professional life.

VOLUNTEER

Being a volunteer is one of my ways to be grateful for the support from society, mentors, and others involved in my career. This journey has given me the best smiles from students and parents.

Secondary School Principal at Saint Joseph School

It’s a pleasure and an honor to write these lines about John Hernandez. A very focused, smart, responsible, and caring teacher whom I had the pleasure to mentor during his first year of teaching Mathematics at Saint Joseph School. At his young age, he exemplified all the characteristics of an effective teacher. Always hungry to learn more. He had the highest expectations of himself and his students. A real team player.
