John Woldu
Educator/Coach
I was born and raised in London, Ontario. My background is Eritrean and grew up in a immigrant home with lots of love. As I grew older I fell in love with the game of basketball. That love continued to shape much of my life and led me to some important figures, who had an immense role in my life. My high school coach/ teacher helped me realize my full potential and focus on my academics and athletics. My experiences have definitely shaped the career I have chosen. As I hope to one day have the same affect on another child!
