海梅埃斯卡兰特
海梅埃斯卡兰特是一位来自玻利维亚的教师。他于1963年来到洛杉矶。那时，他33岁，几乎一点英语都不会讲。
对埃斯卡兰特来说，在美国的生活是艰苦的。在加利福尼亚他不能做老师，他不得不再次去读大学。这花了他许多年，但他坚持下来了。为了在学习的同时养家糊口，他在餐厅打工。最终，在43岁时，他开始在洛杉矶的加菲尔德高中工作。这所学校名声很坏，有很多小流氓，学生学习也不好。很快，埃斯卡兰特改变了这一切。
埃斯卡兰特与他的学生们一起努力。他教他们数学，他用他自己的方法，这些方法很灵。学生们很喜欢学习数学。1982年，他学生中的十四位通过了高等数学的考试。没有人相信这一切。人们说这些学生一定作弊了。学生们要证明自己没有作弊，他们又重新参加了考试，他们又通过了。这样的事在像加菲尔德这样的学校简直是奇迹!这些都是海梅埃斯卡兰特的功劳。
每年埃斯卡兰特都培养出顶尖的学生。人们把他当作美国最好的老师之一，甚至有一部电影和一本书讲述了埃斯卡兰特的故事。
