Txikia Hernandez studied Computer Engineering at the University of Florida and worked as a software and telecommunications engineer for his own software development company and internationally for at&t mobility for over 10 years.

Recognizing a growing need for gifted, young students to be exposed to technology education prior to college, Txikia founded TekStudy - an after-school technology academy based in South Florida, dedicated to teaching students how to build websites and apps in an innovative way.

Following five core principles, TekStudy educates and motivates students to want to learn by:

Small interactive group session in a fast paced, engaging teaching environment
Relating lessons to real world experiences students can relate to and use in the future
Hands on development related to the concepts being taught
Promoting both competition and collaboration as methods of motivation
Gamifying the learning experience by rewarding students for their accomplishments in the classroom
