Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello parents and learners, my name is Dr. Elliott Heflin, Jr. 

I have committed myself to education for these two top reasons. 
1. I wanted to create an environment that allow student to excel pass the expectation our todays public educational system.

2. I wanted them (the students) to know with hard work, any level of education is possible.

It is my mission to educate as many children as I can. I have an extensive background in STEM. I am a STEM Coach for NSBE (National Society of Black Engineers), A First Robotics Coach and STEM Educator online and off-line. 

In addition, I have earned an undergraduate degree in Industrial Technology/Computer Technology along with an MS in Technology Education and Doctoral degree in Educational Leadership/Educational Technology. I also hold a G.A.C.E certification in Engineering/Technology (Georgia certified educator). It is my personal mission to show each learner, that technology is not that difficult. 

Are you a parent that believe that your scholar is not being challenge enough by the current status quo? Join me today and help me change that narrative.
