About Learn Academy
Where diverse expertise meets innovative education
Meet Your Educator
I'm Zaehid Hakim, a multi-talented professional with a unique journey from healthcare to technology, business & education, bringing together diverse expertise to create an extraordinary learning environment.
I am both a qualified Optometrist & Pharmacist, involved in business as well active in home-schooling. As an avid learner I have self-taught Computer Science skills enabling me to build useful applications and web-apps. This interdisciplinary experience allows me to show students how different fields connect and complement each other in the real world.
I believe that in our rapidly changing world, the most valuable education is one that breaks down artificial barriers between subjects and prepares students to think critically, adapt quickly, and solve academic problems efficiently. I love learning new things and genuinely want every student to achieve their potential! You can read more about my background through my professional background web links.

Our Mission & Vision
Our Mission
To provide transformative education that prepares students for a rapidly changing world by breaking down traditional subject barriers and fostering critical thinking, creativity, and adaptability.
Our Vision
To be the leading innovator in interdisciplinary education, creating a generation of learners who can seamlessly navigate between different fields of knowledge and apply their learning to solve real-world challenges.
"Education is not about filling minds with facts, but about teaching them how to think."
This philosophy drives everything we do at Learn Academy.
Learning & Motivation
Children are naturally curious learners, constantly asking "why" and eagerly exploring the world around them. At Learn Academy, we nurture this innate curiosity by focusing on intrinsic motivation rather than external rewards. We believe true learning happens when students feel autonomous in their choices, connected to their peers and educator, and confident in their growing abilities. By emphasising learning goals over performance metrics, we help students develop resilience and maintain their natural enthusiasm for discovery. Our approach transforms education from a duty into a joyful journey, ensuring that the spark of curiosity that drives young minds never dims but instead grows stronger with each new challenge they embrace.
