Wilfredo Fuentes Masis was nominated anonymously by two individuals.
"Señor Fuentes is the ultimate example of what it means to care about the growth of his students. Whether it’s through teaching language, connecting with the students in the classroom, or creating a positive learning environment, he is the best! Congratulations, Señor Fuentes," said one nominator.
"My nominee is a LifeChanger because he is more than just a teacher. He goes above and beyond to personalize groups based off our needs. Three words to describe him are: dedicated, intelligent, and compassionate. One interaction I had with him that changed me is when he was creating an app for our learning. I asked him, 'Do you know when it will be done,' and he responded with, 'I don’t know when it will be done, but it will be done at some point.' That just taught me that it’s not about how long it takes, as long as you know your direction," said the other nominator.
