Sinopse

In this episode, Romeo Marquez Jr. interviews speaker, trainer & California Teacher of the Year,  Alex Kajitani. They discuss success tips on how to succeed as a parent, teacher, and student of life.  About ALEX KAJITANI: Alex Kajitani was a struggling new teacher at a tough, inner-city school in San Diego. As the students came in each day unable to remember simple math concepts from the day before, yet singing every word to the new rap song on the radio, he realized he needed a new approach.
