About BridgeByte

BridgeByte is a student-run initiative founded by a high school student in San Jose, California. After teaching coding in local elementary and middle schools for over a year, the program is now expanding to reach students worldwide — including underserved communities and schools with limited access to technology education. Our goal is simple: remove barriers and make coding education accessible to every student.

Programs

Programming Foundations

Students learn logic, algorithms, and computational thinking skills through structured lessons and guided projects.

Scratch Development

About the Founder

Vivaan Sheoran
Founder · Vivaan Sheoran

Driven by the belief that code is the universal language of the future, Vivaan founded BridgeByte to transform his passion for technology into a platform for global learning. After spending over a year mentoring students locally in San Jose, he saw firsthand how peer-to-peer mentorship can break down complex STEM concepts and inspire the next generation of innovators. His mission is to bridge the digital divide by connecting high school mentors with eager learners in the U.S. and India, proving that while our backgrounds may differ, the language of logic is universal.
