Lawrence Barns
President and CEO of Learning Disabilities Association of Ontario
Lawrence is the President and CEO of Learning Disabilities Association
of Ontario (LDAO), leading the strategic direction of the charity. As
importantly, he is a parent of two sons with Learning Disabilities and
found advocacy in the school system easy but his ability to ask the right
questions not so much. A fluke conversation led him to find a path that
changed the dynamic of his family. His mission now is to make sure others
don’t have to hope for a fluke but instead receive the support that
will lead to success. After over twenty years as a global business executive,
sought after public speaker, and TV host, his time is now dedicated to
changing the perception of Learning Disabilities and the individuals that
it impacts. Lawrence is the lead advocate to the Ontario government on
matters relating to education, employment, and human rights for LDAO as
well as hosting Talk LD a podcast of LD@school (www.ldatschool.ca) and
LD@home (www.LDathome.ca).

body for our tutoring sector in the UK. Originally from Belfast, he studied
Classics at Durham University. After training as a Barrister and pursuing
a legal career, a chance conversation led him unexpectedly to tutoring.

in the UK, throughout Europe and Asia, as well as online.
Matt McCorkle
Co-founder, Clear Choice Test Prep
ACT & SAT Curriculum Developer and Entrepreneur with a Purpose - committed
to lifelong education, continual self-improvement, and promoting social
justice. To that end, I build tools that empower tutors, teachers, and
test prep professionals to prepare high school students for college admissions.
On a personal note: My daughter is the cutest thing in this universe.
I enjoy hiking and camping, but I don't sleep under the stars as often
as I'd like. I "read" more audio books than books because I
can't sit still, and I find it supremely rewarding to help small business owners.
