They embody the essence of our institution, forming its very foundation. These exceptional individuals graciously offer their expertise to students worldwide through our esteemed learning portal, aptly named “Brainfood Academy.”

Introducing our “Trailblazers”: The Educators at Brainfood Academy In the conventional realm of education and priorities, teachers often find themselves undervalued, undercompensated, and lacking adequate support. Yet, they wield the most potent influence on the destinies of the students they wholeheartedly dedicate themselves to. Not everyone possesses the calling to teach, and not all educators are cut from the same cloth. We take immense pride in curating a team of expert teachers for our remarkable educational platform. Our unwavering commitment to their well-being underscores their significance as the guiding luminaries shaping the future.

History – Mr Janecek Shows You History Is Fact

According to Mr Janecek, we need to learn our past. Why? In order to understand our present. As a result, we can plan our future. Contrary to popular consensus, history is not up for debate. It is what it is. It happened. We cannot change it or dispute it. However, we can discuss it. Learn from it and educate ourselves on the mistakes as well as accomplishment of our past.

It will also help us understand why things are happening today. Mr Janecek will engage our students in open conversation and learning on the past and present history. From the Renaissance to current events. Using facts and not opinions, he will lead our students in their growing development of finding their own voice. As a result of learning to discern fact from opinion, they can better make decision for themselves. Learning how to think for themselves as well as reason from fact given, will make our student a better person. Moreover, they will be a vital influence in our ever changing world.
