My mission is to make <strong>STEM education, coding, and technology<\/strong> accessible and inspiring for learners of all ages worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">From an early age, I discovered the power of technology to solve problems and improve lives. I believe that curiosity and knowledge can unlock everyone\u2019s potential. My goal is to empower the next generation with <strong>coding, AI, and science communication skills<\/strong> that matter for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"525\" height=\"525\" src=\"https:\/\/ettanehsan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/EttanEhsan-New-Copy-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-371\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ettanehsan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/EttanEhsan-New-Copy-1.jpg 525w, https:\/\/ettanehsan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/EttanEhsan-New-Copy-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ettanehsan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/EttanEhsan-New-Copy-1-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>In 2022, I launched my YouTube channel, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@EttanEhsan\">Ettan Ehsan<\/a>, which has now surpassed <strong>20,000 subscribers and 5 million views<\/strong>. My channel features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Interviews with world experts<\/strong> \u2013 including NASA astronaut Terry Virts, MIT Professor Jim Gates, economist Tyler Cowen, and PayPal former executive employee Jack Selby.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>STEM short documentaries<\/strong> \u2013 covering topics like sea turtle conservation in Sri Lanka, coral reef preservation in the Maldives, and AI in daily life.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Coding tutorials<\/strong> \u2013 beginner-friendly lessons in Python, Scratch, and C++ designed to help kids explore computer science.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>I saw how Tech could transform lives. It can provide opportunities for people who may not have had access to them before as it is a very powerful tool for social mobility and economic empowerment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s why I started my channel. I want to make programming accessible to everyone. I want to break down the barriers that have historically kept people from pursuing this skill and I want to empower people to unleash their full potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep learning, keep growing, and keep pushing the boundaries of what you thought was possible. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>#EttanEhsan #Education #STEM #Tech #Podcast #Science #Coding #AI #MachineLeargning<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am a 12-year-old STEM YouTuber, podcaster, and science communicator based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
