Who is Scott Cardwell?
An award to celebrate dedication. Craig Smith (Founder of Language Perfect) met Scott at Otago University. One evening Craig was putting in the hard yards for a business project and he invited a number of his friends to work with him. They started at 6:00pm. There were 4 in the beginning. At 8:00pm two of them excused themselves as they had study to do. At 11:00pm a third said he had other things to do. At 4:00am in the morning, it was Craig and Scott that finished the project. And Scott has been here working in every element of Language Perfect ever since. As a celebration of the dedication it takes to be the top student of the Language Perfect World Championships, we recognise Scott Cardwell.
