Each certified teacher has completed hands-on volunteer teaching, along with dedicated training in both instruction and leadership at SummerTech. They represent the highest standard of what we believe great teaching should be: skilled, compassionate, and ready to help students grow with confidence.

Else Costine

Bio:Coding courses in school are often confusing, difficult, and discouraging - many students find themselves left behind or lost. SummerTech's Computer Science curriculum is built on three principles: • Instructors proceed at the student's pace. • Learning by doing requires specific guidance • Curriculum is adapted based on student interest and desires. I've been working with SummerTech for over a decade. Many of our other teachers have been my students in the past, or teach projects that I added to the curriculum. I instruct complete beginners, advanced students, and other teachers looking to round out their skills. I also provide AP tutoring; a number of my best students have chosen to skip the class and take the exam for course credit.

Ivana Harris

Biography:A lifelong adventurer, Ivana Harris writes about travel, wellness, and the art of staying active on the go. As a content creator for Webtec Agency, she shares practical fitness tips, wellness retreats, and destination guides that inspire a balanced, fulfilling lifestyle. When she’s not writing, she’s hiking through Sweden’s forests, testing out new fitness trends, or savoring a quiet sunrise by the sea. Writer's Note: ------------- I’m thrilled to be writing for SummerTech, a dynamic tech summer camp in New York for teens aged 9-17. My passion for fitness and travel aligns perfectly with SummerTech’s mission of inspiring young minds to explore, create, and stay active.
