Testimonials

Former students love the program. It changed how they see themselves, their level of motivation, and their interest and curiosity to learn more about business… and about everything else.

“Learning about finance opened my eyes to something new, interesting, and applicable to whatever I choose to do in life. I also met a lot of fun and interesting students from across the country in the process. I loved it.”

— Alexi S., Cal Tech

“As a senior in college, I’m finding what I learned as a senior in high school through WBRG to be really helpful. Buffett’s lessons still resonate – especially in thinking about how to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the companies I’m considering working for.”

— Hailey M., Harvard University

“The WBRG course was a great learning experience that not only taught me smart business and life advice but prepared me for my first year of college.”

— Luke S., Baylor University

"My daughter, who was already a top student, went beyond everyone’s expectations after taking the WBRG program. According to her high school economics teacher, my daughter is the best student he’s ever had. Her ability to link theory and reality is something he isn’t used to seeing, and once I told him about the WBRG program, he said “now her extraordinary performance makes sense.”

— S.G., CEO

“My daughter, Katherine (Kiki), participated in one of the first WBRG cohorts. The experience was better than we all could have imagined. She learned about judgment in making business decisions, she learned the vocabulary and meaning behind investment types. She took to heart the solid principles used in leading great companies (a juxtaposition to what the news was flashing at the time). The experience helped inform her choice of college majors. She opted for Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE for short) with an emphasis on entrepreneurship. Kiki is now in her third year at Dartmouth College and has interned with a robotics startup and will intern with a management consulting firm next summer.”

“The WBRG exceeded my expectation. This class gave me some key tools for success. I highly recommend it for high school students!”

— Maslyn P., University of Virginia

"The Warren Buffett Reading Group, expertly led by Phyl, offered an enriching experience to my high school junior son, Noah. Thoughtfully crafted discussions around Warren's iconic letters sparked conversations that spanned finance, ethics, and decision-making. Guided by Phyl's skillful facilitation, these interactions nurtured Noah's critical thinking and communication abilities, ultimately deepening his interest in business and fostering significant personal growth.”
