  • Elite Person

    I came across George many years ago and so many of his ideas in his books and podcasts resonated as much as anything in education ever has for me! I’ve applied so many things mentioned in them to help make me not only a better educator but person as well. He is brilliant and helps make people better! Other than a few of his sports teams, the podcast and George are nothing short of elite and amazing. If your looking to grow as a person and educator, get connected with George Curous!
