I’m Henry, an EdTech founder and a Digital literacy Expert who’s all in on one idea: teens are Africa’s tech future, and they need to start strong. With BeyondSTEM Africa, I’m teaching kids aged 6–18 across Nigeria and beyond especially teenagers the tech skills to not just survive, but dominate in a world that’s all bytes and brilliance. If you’re a teen (or a parent of one), I’ve got your back — because a solid tech foundation now means unstoppable wins later.

Parents, you want your teen ready for what’s next. Teens, you’re itching to make your mark. I’m here to show you how to build that tech base — my way, with BeyondSTEM Africa — and why it’s a game-changer.

Why Teens? Why Tech? Why Now?

I’ll keep it real: the world’s moving fast. The World Economic Forum says 65% of kids today — yep, that’s you, teens — will work in jobs that don’t exist yet. Tech’s the heartbeat of those jobs — coding, AI, digital everything. I started BeyondSTEM Africa because I saw teens in Africa with raw talent, hungry to learn, but stuck without the right start. I’m changing that, one teen at a time.

For me, it’s personal. I wish I’d had this push as a teen — now I’m giving it to you.

My Guide to Building Your Tech Foundation

1. Start with the Basics — Then Level Up

Tech’s not about being a genius overnight. I tell teens: dip into coding with Scratch or Python — easy, fun, drag-and-drop stuff — then push to harder challenges. At BeyondSTEM Africa, I make it bite-sized: learn logic, play with blocks, then boom — you’re coding real things. That’s your base.

2. Get Digital-Savvy

You’re online all the time, right? I teach teens to go deeper — know how apps work, spot fakes, use tools like a pro. Digital literacy’s your secret weapon — trust me, I’ve seen it open doors. It’s not just scrolling; it’s owning the internet.

3. Tinker and Break Stuff

Tech’s messy — perfect for teens! I push you to experiment: mess with a game, tweak a website, fail fast. At BeyondSTEM Africa, I cheer the flops — they’re how you grow. That grit’s what builds a foundation that sticks.

4. Find Your Why

Tech’s cool, but it’s better when it’s yours. I ask teens: what fires you up? Gaming? Climate fixes? Music apps? I tie STEM skills to what you love — because a foundation built on passion lasts. My goal? Get you hooked.

5. Look Ahead

AI, robotics, virtual reality — I’m showing teens the future’s playground. You don’t need to master it now, but peeking at what’s coming keeps you ahead. I’ve got your back with BeyondSTEM Africa, easing you in.

How I’m Helping Teens Do It

BeyondSTEM Africa is my love letter to teens like you:

• Real Talk: I keep lessons chill — hands-on, no jargon, just tech you can use.
• Africa’s Vibe: I link it to our world — tech for markets, farms, your crew — so it hits home.
• Teen-Ready: I’ve got stuff for 13-year-olds just starting and 18-year-olds eyeing uni or startups.

Parents, I’m setting your teen up to shine. Teens, I’m your hype man — let’s build something big.

Why It’s Worth the Hustle

Miss this, and you’re playing catch-up later — trust me, I’ve seen it. But nail it now, and you’re the one companies chase, the one solving Africa’s problems, the one living your dream. I meet teens every day with that spark — BeyondSTEM Africa’s my way of fanning it into a fire.

A strong tech foundation isn’t just skills — it’s power. I want Africa’s teens leading the pack, not trailing it.
