Our team
  • Jan Brzak
    CEO
    I first got into programming as a child in a computer circle, where we learned Basic on Didactic computers. I never became a programmer, but my general awareness of programming came in handy many times later, as did the basics of logical thinking and an analytical approach to problem solving. I graduated from the University of Žilina, in recent years I have worked as a captain of a Boeing 737 and since 2020 I have been managing Algorithmics in the Czech Republic. My hobbies include sports (currently mainly running, in the past triathlon), playing the piano and singing.

    Customer care specialist, Administrator
    I have been working for Algorithmics since the autumn of 2020, I liked the idea of the project from the beginning and that is why I wanted to be part of the team. I can be reached on our e-mail, telephone or social networks and I will be happy to answer any questions regarding our courses. I like to spend my free time with friends, play computer games and, above all, take care of my three cats.
  • Renata Michanikova
    Customer care specialist
    As a child, I was interested in computers and I always knew I wanted to do more. That's why I also graduated from high school with a degree in IT. I wish I could start earlier than high school then, but unfortunately I didn't have the opportunity. Therefore, it makes me very happy to work in algorithms and help children develop this interest from a young age. My interests include playing computer games, horseback riding or caring for my parrots.

Our teachers
  • Silvia Mishakova
    Mars Academy
    I'm an IT girl and I'm proud of it! I have been studying computer science at FIT BUT in Brno for four years and I also apply my knowledge in several companies. The technical focus does not prevent me from participating in camps and helping to organize various events for children. The School of Programming for Children - Algorithmics, for which I work as a teacher, also helps me to connect my two great passions - working with children and computer science.
  • Jakub Landspersky
    Mars Academy
    At school, I have enjoyed mathematics the most since first grade because of my analytical way of solving problems. I always liked to introduce my classmates to her secrets - whether during a break, ten minutes before the test, or private tutoring. I also discovered this process in programming when, out of curiosity, I signed up for the introductory summer course. I was also interested in programming the opportunity to express myself creatively - in the form of games, animations ... And of course it is a very promising skill for the future. I am currently in graduation year and I plan to study computer science at university. At Algorithmics, I can combine two things I enjoy - learning and programming - and explore this world with children in a fun and playful way.
  • Ester Vilímkova
    Mars Academy
    Hello! I'm Esther! I am 21 years old and I study computer science at Masaryk University. I started working with a computer in the first grade of elementary school, and since then I have enjoyed graphic design and video editing. I really got into programming in college, but I really enjoy it and in my free time I try to develop simple computer games. I missed someone who would show you how to start and advise me on how to proceed. And that's why I would like to help your children to start programming so soon and to learn and create their own projects.
  • Matej Zeman
    Python
    I am a student at a general high school in Prague and I am eighteen years old. As a child, I was taught how to program at home and then visited various programming courses. That's why I have had a good relationship with programming since childhood. I would like to continue my studies as a teacher or some field with IT. I think it's good for children to learn to program from childhood, since they develop logical thinking and also because they then have a greater opportunity to develop further in the programing.
  • Ondrej Kohut
    Мars Academy
    I first became acquainted with programming in high school, but I was very excited about this field. However, I always enjoyed didactics. Every time I sat in school, I thought about how I could present what I was hearing to students more interestingly. Therefore, I decided to combine these two hobbies and today I am studying Informatics and Mathematics at Matfyz in Prague with a focus on education. I am already researching various innovative methods in teaching IVT in schools and trying to use the latest technologies that help children in class to get a little closer to the world of informatics. At Algorithmics, I am especially pleased with the modern approach to working with children, which is very popular in schools today can't see.
  • Ekaterina Miasnikova
    Python
    I can't imagine anything more interesting and creative than programming. When I was in high school, I got into math camp and there she fell completely in love with math and then programming. I have been working in the field of IT for a long time and I think that the future stands in this field. During my studies, I started tutoring children in programming and I really enjoyed it. At Algorithmics, I continue to pass on my programming knowledge to our young generation.
  • Premysl Pilar
    Mars Academy
    On the world there are two things in which I see the future.
    Science and children. I believe that computer technologies are and will be inseperable aspect of our lives and teaching younger generations to think about these problems is priceless.
    I started programming in high school and I continued at CTU FIT, where I still study. Writing codes and programmes became part of my personality and it helped me grow as a person. In Algorithmics I can hone my skills and of others as well.
  • Marek Tengler
    Mars Academy
    I graduated from a vocational high school focused on informatics, worked in several companies focusing on IT security and studied informatics with mathematics at the Faculty of Education in Pilsen. During my studies I taught children mathematics, English, physics. He led several circles focused on robotics and programming. I consider the teaching of programming to be absolutely crucial and I believe that just as the ability to milk a cow was common for children in the village a hundred years ago, there will be the ability to program your own script in a few decades, making it easier to work with a lot of information at the same level.
  • Marek Krucina
    Mars Academy
    I enjoyed a lot of math in high school, but I knew almost nothing about computer science at the time. Everything changed when I decided to start studying Information Technology at FIT BUT in Brno. I am now in the 3rd year and I can say that it confirms to me why I went to study this field - informatics is the future and there is so much interesting in it that everyone can choose. Since childhood, I also like to go to camps, formerly as a participant, now as a leader. I know how rewarding working with children is and how great it is to pass on my knowledge and experience to them - that's also why I decided to work in Algorithmics.
  • Jan Pitak
    Python
    I am studying for the second year at CTU FEE - cybernetics and robotics. There are many reasons why I chose this field, mainly because I really enjoy programming. I started with simple functions in Excel, then VBA also in Excel and then I tried all sorts of programming languages across disciplines. I stayed with C, which I liked for my speed, ability to work with memory and the ability to program Nuclea, Arduino, etc. Then C #, which I like because of the "graphical interface in which I create a graphical interface". So it's a matter of a few clicks for me to create a basic user interface. Lastly, I'm learning Python, I think it's the biggest future, it's simple, it's clear, and most of all, most companies are moving to it. Programming is fun for me, and thanks to it I can look at the world differently. I see how things work, they're not just magic boxes.
  • Vitek Cherny
    Mars Academy
    My name is Vitek Cherny, I am 23 years old and I am studying a combined field of English-Informatics for Education. During my studies, I had the opportunity to learn many programming languages, such as Java and C ++, I also worked with databases in SQL and the HTML5 markup language. I now apply this experience in practice and in teaching. I believe that knowledge of programming is very important for the future and at the same time its teaching should be practical, playful and fun, so I try to approach teaching in this way.
  • Petr Prevratil
    Mars Academy
    My name is Petr Převratil and I am 20 years old. I study on Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering in Prague specifically I focus on plasma physics and thermonuclear reaction techniques. I started with programming at secondary school, but I learned the most in college, where I use programming for specific applications in various subjects. I like to work with children and the concept of learning programming for young children is very interesting for me. I think the sooner children start learning programming and algorithmic thinking, the better for their future life. This is mainly the reason why I teach in Algorithmics. Currently I teach Mars Academy, but I want to start teaching Python soon.
