Teesas Education Launches Summer School to Spark Creativity in Young minds

Teesas Education, an impact-driven edTech company, is set to light up the summer for children aged 8 to 18 with a transformative learning experience that blends academics with creativity and innovation. 

Running across two engaging cohorts from 21 July to 8 August and 11 to 28 August, the Teesas Summer School promises more than just an academic boost.

Participants at the Teesas Summer School will learn foundational tech and vocational skills, including coding, generative AI, and phone and tablet repairs. 

Creativity will also flourish through aerobics, animation and graphic design classes. Every child will undergo a pre-assessment to identify academic gaps, followed by customised tutoring and continuous computer-based testing for senior secondary school students to get them acquainted with the examination formats of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and the West African Examinations Council (WAEC).

Encouraging parents not to let the holidays be another wasted summer of missed opportunities, Mr Osayi Izedonmwen, Chairman and Founder of Teesas Education, said that the “Teesas Summer School is the ultimate summer school experience for children aged 8 to 18,” describing the programme as a “launchpad for tomorrow’s entrepreneurs, innovators, and changemakers.”

“What sets our summer school apart is a series of entrepreneurship-focused activities specially designed for teenagers. They will gain skills to develop business ideas, and the summer school will culminate in a real-world pitch to business leaders, including one who has built two billion-dollar companies, for the chance to receive startup capital,” Izedonmwen said.

Character and leadership development skills, which have been identified as pivotal to the future of work, will also take centre stage with winning lessons from “The 7 Habits of Happy Kids” and “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens.”

Teesas Education also distinguishes itself with a no-phone policy during classes, giving parents peace of mind that their children will remain attentive. Parents will also benefit from ongoing progress reports, reinforcing Teesas Education’s commitment to accountability and growth. The Teesas Summer School will run from 8 am to 2 pm, from Monday to Friday, at the Teesas Learning Centres in Ikeja and Lekki.
