About School Succes Speaker Kantis
Growing up with 7.25 fingers, feeling inadequate, insignificant, unworthy, and feeling like a complete "Loser," Kantis learned how to overcome and defeat the mental battles that so many students and young adults go through; the ones that quietly tell them "you can’t, you won’t, and you’ll never."
While sharing his tear-jerking finger jokes and his "School Success System," Kantis Simmons empowers students to get better grades, improve on standardized tests, stay enrolled in school and totally succeed in life. As the leading strategist for academic success, every school he works with sees a 15 to 23% improvement in their students' academic performance and test scores.
Highly Personable

With a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry from Norfolk State University (Norfolk, VA), a Master of Science degree in Polymer Science & Engineering from Lehigh University (Bethlehem, PA) and a Master of Science degree in Textile and Fiber Engineering from Georgia Tech (Atlanta, GA), he developed new products for Mobil Chemical Company, created new contact lenses for CIBA Vision, and improved aircrafts for NASA Research Center.
