Marvin Hall

There is nothing about Marvin Hall that should ever be taken at face value. He's not a brilliant mind that stayed locked away in the halls of academia. He goes beyond theories and plies his trade in the real world. He is an innovative educator using his entrepreneurial skills to improve learning for Jamaican youth. Trained in Mathematics and Technology, Marvin has always sought ways to excite children about Math, Science and Art, through hands-on learning activities. Driven by a desire to build a school for his son, he evolved beyond "middle school Math teacher" to form his brainchild, Halls of Learning. Halls of Learning is committed to providing educational experiences, equal to, or exceeding international standards, regardless of background. Through after-school workshops, summer camps and inner-city projects ranging from animation and music to robotics, their mission is to lead a learning revolution in Jamaica. Marvin is kept awake at night by visions of a sea of robotic creations, held high in the hands of the children who made them.
