Re: Adult coach?

In previous years we went with a pre-college student coach. This year we started using an adult mentor coach.

We will probably stay with the mentor coach next year, but we've had good student coaches in the past, so it could go either way.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
