2. Jaime Escalante: Teacher
Jaime Escalante was born to two teachers of Aymara ancestry in Bolivia, and taught math and physics. When he immigrated to the US he taught himself English and went to college. Jaime Escalante is well known for teaching Calculus at an under-performing school in Los Angeles. He inspired and encouraged and motivated poor students at record numbers to take and pass the AP Calculus class, despite many cynics who didn’t believe in him.
