Why I Only Mentor a Small Number of Students
My mentorship model requires deep involvement—weekly one-to-one sessions, daily check-ins, performance analysis, monthly reports, university guidance, and high-accountability structures. This level of detail simply isn’t possible with a large roster.
To deliver exceptional results, I work extensively with only 4–5 students each year—ensuring each receives my full attention and the highest standard of academic mentorship.

Meet Dave Bell
