The Teachers of Brainfood Academy; the heart and soul. We are so proud of the expert teachers that we have attracted to our Academy. They truly are a gift to us and to our students as they share their talents and knowledge with those students who will be joining us from all around the globe with our Training and Education Platform. “Brainfood Academy”.
You know them as the Teachers of Brainfood Academy To us, they’re Heroes!
Meet the “run-of-the-mill” teacher (by the way, my son is a High School Science teacher but he’s not run-of-the-mill, for sure). In public education, and unfortunately many private schools as well: they are under-appreciated, under-paid and definitely under-supported. Some, but not all, were not created to be teachers; unfortunate students can bear witness to that. Yet, these are the people we entrust our future to each and every day. That is because the impact they have on a student’s life is beyond measure. Here, at Brainfood Academy, we value our teachers, will “have their back” and are proud to trumpet their value to the world. They truly are our heroes.

I also will have a separate class for instruction in playing the guitar. By using my experience and knowledge in music, the student will be able to become skillfully proficient in the art of music.

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. Let me tell you more about me here.

We Love, Love, Love Our Teachers at Brainfood Academy
The teachers at Brainfood Academy are heroes with a heart for teaching their students, in all cases, how to learn and think for themselves. Because, it’s time for all of us to take the education of our future leaders back where it belongs; in a community that values parents’ input and participation and teachers with the student as the focus, not the ideology.
In addition, the use of technology with the High Skills of our Teacher Core sets us above the rest. The Curriculum and Direction of the “Supporting Community” behind this is unlike anything you have seen or can imagine. This is how we fix and better the Education Path for all. Welcome.
