Our awesome intern David Hu traveled to Guatemala this past weekend to give a TEDx talk about Khan Academy and the work he’s done here on our learning proficiency model.
Watch the video of his talk at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oA0ws8rwd_c
David successfully navigated three taxis in a mad dash to the airport, crossing San Francisco at rush hour; a multi-hour surprise Q&A session by the faculty of Universidad Francisco Marroquín in Guatemala City; staying up all night to rewrite his presentation; and learning that in Guatemala, when a woman takes your arms and brings you close to kiss you, she’s just going for your cheek and you don’t have to bolt in fear.
