The Simplicity of Greatness.: A conversation with Mr. A, your resident Black Male Teacher. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781985735989)

My name is Samuel Agyarko Jr. The Educational Concierge. Curating the Future. This open letter allows me to share my experiences, my life's work and what defines my voice. I am a spiritually driven child of Ghanaian immigrants. Myself being a successful product of Chicago's inner city and Public Schools system began teaching in the urban community, I recognized the deficit in leadership that many students faced. I was compelled to act. In pursuing higher education, I earned my Bachelor of Science in Applied Computer Science, with a minor in Economics, and I am Illinois State Board Certified in Business, Computer Science and Technology. As a lover of knowledge, I pursued my Masters in Educational Leadership to further my understanding of what is necessary to be an academic leader. I have 13 years of teaching experience at the elementary and secondary level in the Jeffrey Manor, Englewood & South Holland communities, respectively. As a product of the Hip Hop generation, I understand the importance of culturally responsive efforts to engage students. I accepted the charge to expedite the development of young men and young women. It is my hope to create thought provoking, conscious conversation for the masses by building leaders.
