"“Jordan is a close friend of mine and I wanted to learn how to learn the rules and how to play so we could watch games together and play co-ed intramural soccer at UNR. With my background and degree in education, I’ve helped Jordan learn how to effectively teach, and boy did he learn. I was so happy with how he has grown and the progress he’s made. I’ve learned so much from him now after receiving lessons after our trainings on how to teach. Jordan and I now watch soccer every weekend together and have an absolute blast playing.”
