Jason McDonald – My Hero. His students' hero.

I’d like to share a story about the person who my wife & I named our son after; Jason McDonald. There are so many reasons we wanted to honor my brother by naming our son after him, but here is one example we’d like to share.

My Brother graduated at the top of his class as an Engineering major from UCSB. He immediately landed a job as a mechanical engineer with one of the top firms in the country. He was doing quite well, but something was missing. Although his projects were exciting, they just weren’t doing anything for him.

Jason decided he wasn’t making a difference, so he quit his job. He moved to Colorado and started using his talents to help troubled kids turn their lives around. It was extremely rewarding, but unfortunately, that was only a summer job so he decided to do something else that “filled in the time” between summers by becoming a private tutor to help students struggling with Math & Science.

Jason is now a private tutor in Maine and because he is limited in how many students he can help, Jason has since launched an SAT math prep website. Now, instead of only being able to help students who are in his geographic area, he is able to reach out to students across the country and help change each of their futures.

Thanks for letting me share.

Sincerely,

Joel McDonald
