Travis: “Education and certification programs are important.”

Haowen: “Our students come from low-incomes and refugee camps; they need a role model.”
Haowen: “Our interns can create a new lesson plan; create the programs we need to learn how to be able to create.”

Bio for Haowen Ge
Haowen Ge is originally from China and moved to Shaker Heights* with his mother when he was 12 years old. He experienced and fully understands the challenges and obstacles international students currently face at local public schools.
