"Although I never worked with Gavin professionally, I did have the pleasure of sitting in his classroom for two years as a student. Few teachers actually prepare you for college-level academia, however, Gavin is one of those few. He went above and beyond to encourage his students to think critically and ask insightful questions. His class always felt like a live discussion, rather than a lecture. As a matter of fact, it was his economics course that inspired me to pursue my degree in the subject. Gavin is an incredible teacher, leader, and mentor for young minds."

"Gavin Kalner is a tremendous leader and has had a significant impact on my life. I am extremely grateful to have had him as a teacher for two years. His impact on students goes far beyond the classroom, and I am fortunate to have had him as a mentor in my life. "

"Gavin Kalner is an incredibly adaptable and talented person. His leadership style and poignant insights are paralleled only by his consideration of all stakeholders in whatever dialogue, often leaving his colleagues and students feeling dignified and respected. "
