Paul Ackerman - Orlando, Florida

Paul Ackerman may never finish first in a marathon, and that's okay with him. He knows that his successes are measured everyday by his family and his students.

“The story-based curricula has revealed itself to be an innovative and creative method to bring the class to life. The software transforms what could be a series of dull, “how-to” lessons into a progression of real life experiences, and for my students it is a very effective way to reach their minds in a lasting way. Those that really get into it, get the feeling that they are truly at work and have daily tasks to do, a boss, deadlines, and a finished product to create. This is much more than a memorization and regurgitation of facts and figures!!!”
