Thomas Bogle is an Economics teacher at Corona del Sol and he spends every bit of energy he can muster trying to cultivate an appreciation for entrepreneurial thinking in the minds of his students. What I like most about Mr. Bogle is that his lifestyle flies in the face of the old saying "if you can't do, teach." Thomas doesn't just talk about entrepreneurship, he practices what he preaches. He's the very kind of teacher this world needs: a person who eats, drinks, sleeps, and embodies the very message he conveys in the classroom.
