Leadership

Richard Squire
Partner
My goals are to help educate a new breed of teacher that looks at education differently. We need to allow students to learn through failing. It is only through failure that we truly learn and succeed. Where would we be if Thomas Edison had quit after failing in his first attempt at creating the electric light bulb? We need to train teachers and students alike that failure is a good option. It is through failing and revising that success is truly accomplished. Failure is not something to be heard but embraced as friend helping us toward our goal!
