Hi, I’m Hanson.

I equip kids and parents to navigate an AI-driven world with genuine confidence. I’m on a mission to make sure our kids are ready for what’s coming.

About me

The person behind the mission

Hanson Huang

I’m based in Torbay, North Shore, Auckland, NZ. My background is in software engineering — I’ve spent years building apps, working with AI, and staying close to where the technology is actually heading.

That technical depth is what I bring to education. I don’t just teach kids what AI tools to click — I help them understand how it thinks, where it fails, and how to work alongside it with genuine confidence.

This started at home.When my two daughters started asking questions about AI — what it is, whether it will take jobs, if it can think — I realised the answers they were getting from school weren’t enough. So I started teaching them myself. This work is an extension of that.

My mission
Why this, why now?
Every generation has a skill that separates those who lead from those who get left behind.For our kids, that skill is knowing how to think alongside AI.School isn’t teaching it fast enough. I am.
Young AI Builder Pathway

From Scratch to AI agents, for ages 8–14

A small-group Saturday journey through Scratch, Python, machine learning, and real AI agent projects.

  1. Stage 1

    Foundations

    Ages 8–11

    Scratch, then training real machine-learning models with Teachable Machine.

  2. Stage 2

    Code

    Ages 11–13

    Python — from first script to real AI apps that call APIs and use trained models.

  3. Stage 3

    Agents

    Ages 13–14

    Build AI assistants and tools with code — the destination of the pathway.

AI literacy— how it works, prompting, bias, and safe use — is woven through every stage, not a separate class.
Saturday groups

Two Saturday groups, placed by readiness

Each group enters the pathway at a different stage. After your AI Discovery Session, I’ll recommend the right one.

Foundation Group

Starting at Stage 1: Foundations

Ages 8–11 · Forming now

Building from Scratch. Kids learn loops, variables, conditionals, and debugging through games and stories — the thinking habits AI needs.

Focus areas
  • Scratch games, animation, and interactive stories
  • Loops, variables, conditionals, and debugging
  • Clear thinking about how AI learns and where it fails
FoundationsCodeAgents
Builder Group

Starting at Stage 2: Code

Ages 11–14 · Forming now

Building with Python. Kids learn Python fundamentals, train machine-learning models, and call AI APIs to ship real apps.

Focus areas
  • Python fundamentals, functions, and data structures
  • Machine-learning projects and AI-powered apps
  • Prompt craft, API thinking, and beginner AI agents
