Client Reviews
Jeff Ross/ Physical Education Teacher at Liverpool Central School District (Testimonial)
I am writing on behalf of Vincent DeSalvatore, who coached freshman football with me for the past two seasons. Vincent is responsible, hard worker, committed, and has a passion for students. He has away about how he works with kids that makes him stand out from other teachers and coaches. His energy and drive is contagious that rubs off with whatever group he is working with. Vincent gains the level of respect from his players by the way he communicates with them, the knowledge he brings to his coaching and teaching and preparation for every practice and games. This position was a non-paid position; however, he tackled it with, being a team player, going above and beyond his expectations and never missing a day of practice. I have been so impressed with how he cares for his players and strives to improve every day. He is one of the best I have ever worked with because of his character he possesses.
