Introduction | Mark relates to teens struggles in adolescence because he himself struggled through tough events in his own life. Mark was hit by a car while riding his bike. This put him in a coma for the next eight days, paralyzed on the left side of his body and caused seizures for the next nine years. Mark had to learn how to walk and talk again. His mother was told by a psychologist that he would never be college material. He was also told by his doctor that he would never be able to drive a car. Mark was on medication for nine years and always was teased by students. Mark now is not only a successful businessman in real estate, but he is a former elected official who served two terms on the Palm Beach County School Board ( 11th largest school district in the country). Mark Hansen has an extensive entrepreneurial background with his first speech given back in 1991 to a group of middle school students. Since then, Mark has given over 1,300 seminars, appeared on radio and television programs and written a book entitled "An Ark for Learning" which was used in many middle schools as a learning guide for students and teachers. |
