Escalante
After reading Encyclopedia.com, they would note that during just two years at Normal Superior due to his exceptional skill at Physics and math he was called upon by his peers and students to start teaching Physics when there was shortage of teachers. Despite having no formal teaching lessons he mimicked the teachers he respected and started to teach on his own at the age of 21.
Encyclopedia will go on to state that, "When he graduated in 1954 he had three jobs lined up. In the mornings
he taught at the prestigious San Calixto, in the afternoons he worked
at National Bolívar
High School, and in the evenings he taught at Commercial High School.
It was through a lot of experience that Escalante developed his unique
and effective teaching style."
