In a remarkable story, a 10-year-old has been hired by a school in the United Kingdom to teach coding.
Emmanuella Mayaki is a young tech prodigy who has now received her first job as the after school coding and programming teacher at Southfield Primary School in Coventry, England.
She will now be in charge of teaching kids her age about CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) and HTML (Hypertext Markup Language).
Mayaki, also has an app on the Google Play Store called My Academy App where she "passes on the knowledge of coding and graphics."
In an interview with Face 2 Face Africa, Mayaki said her passion for technology began at age 7 and as she is still learning other coding programs and languages and she is so eager to grow. "I set a target to become a professional web designer and analyst at age nine, and I have accomplished it...In the first week, I was pretty nervous because I had never taught a group of children. Although, my experience was sublime because I gained experience and I also enriched my skills. My observations were that not everyone grasps how to do it on their first try and there are some that they rush through it in a breeze.”
