Entrepreneur Name: Michael Wang

Business Name: PeerSquared, Arizona, United States

While in high school, Michael Wang with some of his friends started a peer tutoring club. PeerSquared provides K-12 students with accessible supplementary resources by helping schools and communities build peer tutoring programs where students can connect with trained local high schooler tutors for free 1-on-1 academic support. Michael adds When my first cofounder quit and left the startup a year ago, it really felt like a failure on my part. Even though I just won a large grant, perhaps it did nothing to vouch for my ability as a leader. But after many internal dialogs and calls with mentors, I learned that, sometimes, things really are not as complicated as we think they are inside our heads.
