- A Nigerian whiz kid, Emmanuella Mayaki, has been offered a teaching appointment at an after-school club at the Southfields Primary School, Coventry, England
- Emmanuella got the teaching appointment after she was discovered to be computer proficient
- The school said the young girl is very passionate about sharing knowledge with kids like her because she believes in a better future
- The smart kid advised the Nigerian government to set up infrastructures that would encourage kids to learn coding at a young age for making some technological changes to an Artificial Intelligence project.
it reports that she is proficient in all main Microsoft programs and has even launched a website of her own.
After the after-school club at the Southfields Primary School, Coventry, England realised her technological skill set and her passion for work, it offered the 10-year-old the opportunity to teach so she could show others the amazing things she can do.
Martin Benbeidge, one of the instructors at the school, said Emmanuella is not only the school’s star, but has superior skill and passion for sharing knowledge. Despite what she has been able to achieve at such tender age, the 10-year old is not slowing down as she hopes to learn more programming languages like Prolong and Lisp as soon as possible, a move which would aide her further knowledge of Java and Python Coder.
Speaking with the media, the little girl said she wants the Nigerian government to put up infrastructure that would allow kids in the country to learn some computer skills and be able to code too. “I want to become a machine learning engineer because I have experience in programming and my job is to program a machine to perform specific tasks. My knowledge of modern software such as Eclipse, which I use to program Java applications, is also part of the reasons I want to be a machine learning engineer,” she said when describing what she does.
