User Testimonials


Formation of numerous impactful professional connections

STUDENT
Stronger confidence and determination to pursue a career in data science after accomplishing a real-world project.
Through the project, I realized that lots of seemingly simple questions are in fact highly complex when you look at them closely. Working with Jerry is a really great experience, as I wouldn’t be able to learn these skills at school. I also felt more confident and passionate about a career in data science after experiencing what a practical data science project looks like.

I have the confidence to aim higher, to transfer to academically more rigorous and challenging university.
I really appreciate the fact that we can have the opportunity to apply what we learned in school to real-world scenarios. Before learning about the program, my friends and I were having a very difficult time looking for internships. Through Bear Tech Career program and working at Youth Society for Education(YSE), I have the confidence to aim higher, to transfer to academically more rigorous and challenging university.

I see it as a blessing that I am able to contribute to their journey and growth.
My experience working with Bear Tech students is like taking a beach vacation during my career journey. It is dynamic and refreshing to learn their perspectives. Sometimes, I truly felt that I learned even more from the students in comparison to my guidance for them. One of the most remarkable moments in this program was to see the students successfully completing their project deliverables. I truly feel proud of them and I see it as a blessing that I am able to contribute to their journey and growth.

It was very rewarding seeing two interns got admission offers from both UC Berkeley and UCLA, their dream schools.
This will be my third year taking interns from Bear Tech’s students and it’s been a really rewarding experience. In particular, it was very rewarding seeing two interns got admission offers from both UC Berkeley and UCLA, their dream schools. Some of my interns are in contact with me more than others, so what you get out of it depends on what you put into it.
