William Maillis is the nine-year-old son of Greek Orthodox Priest Peter Maillis and little William has a knack for learning things fast.
Father Maillis realized his son was special when he was only five-years-old as he could recite the English, Greek, French, Spanish and the Hebrew alphabets. William even learned to count to 100 in Chinese!
Since then, the now nine-year-old has graduated from Penn-Trafford High School after passing all the required exams and is now attending Community College of Allegheny County’s Boyce campus before he is planning to transfer to Carnegie Mellon University next year at the tender age of ten.
Don’t let William’s superstar status at school fool you, his dad says he is just like every other nine-year-old. “We’re normal people,” Father Maillis said. “And he’s a normal kid. You can’t distinguish him from other 9-year-olds. He likes sports, television shows, the computer and video games like everyone else.”
