theCoderSchool Opens First South Florida Location

TL;DR

theCoderSchool opens its first location in south Florida, aiming to teach kids how to code. The school is founded by Hansel Lynn and provides computer programming lessons to children ages 7 to 18.

The duo will be bringing nearly two decades of technology experience to the school, both having extensive backgrounds in computer science and software development. As a community with a plethora of children, Aditi and Rajiv saw the tremendous potential for opening theCoderSchool in the local area. Their children, ages 8 and 10, love video games and now love to code. The couple wants to bring the same passion they and their children have for coding to Broward County.

Both Aditi and Rajiv moved to south Florida from India. Rajiv came to the United States in 2002 to complete his Master’s in computer science at Florida Atlantic University. Aditi came to Florida to be with her husband in 2007, completing her MBA at Florida Atlantic University.

“We are excited to open our first CoderSchool in Coral Springs,” said Aditi. “Learning how to code gives children the upper hand in their future. Through theCoderSchool’s 2-on-1 approach to teaching and project-based, customized curriculum, we look forward to getting kids coding at an early age.”

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ralhan’s emphasize the importance of keeping kids engaged and learning as parents continue to adjust to virtual learning.

“Our school will allow children to work with our code coaches directly, feel accomplished and proud of their work, and the best part is that they will be learning skills that will help them for their future potential careers,” said Aditi.

Founded by Hansel Lynn and incubated with the help of his best friend, Wayne Teng, theCoderSchool was built with the desire to provide children aged 7 to 18 years with a welcoming environment to develop computer programming skills. theCoderSchool uses a variety of platforms to teach various coding languages, such as HTML, CSS, Python, JavaScript and more. Every Code Coaching lesson is customized with the help of trained Code Coaches® who use a 2-on-1 approach to teaching.

“As we continue to expand our presence throughout the country, it’s critical to find the right franchise partners, like Aditi and Rajiv, who truly know the importance of coding,” added Lynn. “We are excited the Coral Springs location will be opening virtually and in the future expand their options to in-person learning.”

Founded in 2014 and franchising since 2016, theCoderSchool, a Silicon Valley-based children’s enterprise franchise, provides computer programming lessons to children ages 7 to 18. Identified as one of Entrepreneur magazine’s hottest brands, theCoderSchool has over 45 schools operating in over 15 states and continues to expand its national footprint with several locations in development in major U.S. and Canadian markets.
