Meet Jason, Founder of Aspire Coding Academy
Jason Hwang holds a B.S. in Computer Science from Rice University and has extensive experience as a professional software engineer and educator. As the former Head TA at Rice, he has helped dozens of students develop confidence in programming and launch their careers.
What Our Students Are Saying
“In today’s world, where AI is reshaping how we work, English has become the language of code. To succeed as a programmer, you need to master problem-solving and understand technical tradeoffs—not just tools. Jason helped me to develop my logical problem-solving skills and gave me the confidence to tackle programming challenges on my own.”
— K.N.
“Jason meets you at your skill level and introduces concepts that are just the right size for where you are. One of the biggest challenges in coding is dealing with unknowns, and Jason’s experience helps you dive into the code without needing to plan out every detail beforehand.”
— B.N.
“Jason encouraged me to think deeply through coding problems instead of just providing answers. I learned how to break problems down to their fundamentals and develop effective solutions.”
— R.L.
