“Thankfully America has a tradition dating back to Colonial times of not being passive when serious challenges arise. Vince Bertram is a splendid example of this can-do, let’s-roll-up-our-sleeves-and-do-something-about-it characteristic.”

“I knew I was going to enjoy reading your book after the first page. It feels like you are talking directly to me. It’s easy to read and not complicated. I don’t know how you did it, but you explained how many students like myself think. It’s amazing how the book shifted my perspective on subjects I thought were just too hard for me. You are changing lives!”

“It was an absolute honor and privilege to have you as our guest speaker for last night’s commencement. Your speech was encouraging, personable, and allowed our students to gain insights into post-secondary life and beyond.

“Thank you so much for mentoring me over the past six years. You have had a tremendous impact on my life. You taught me how to be a visionary leader, develop my organizational management skills, showed me how to be sincere and prioritize service to others in all my endeavors, and helped me make critical decisions regarding my education. With your help, by the age of 23, I started a dental clinic, created a non-profit organization that provides education to hundreds of children in need, received full ride scholarships to college, and received admissions offers to seven medical schools with scholarships. I could not have accomplished such ambitious goals without your guidance and mentorship.”
