He may be younger than their children but one of Britain’s brainiest children has been hired by a university to help adults with their sums.
Yasha Asley, 14, is employed by the University of Leicester – where he is also a degree student – to run tutorials.
He became the youngest ever student at the University and is now the youngest ever employee.
Yasha was interviewed and offered the paid job when he was just 13–years old – beating adult applicants.
Admin staff had to apply to Leicester city council for special permission to employ him because he was so young.
The weekly tutorials Yasha runs are for adult students who need help and support solving problems following lectures.
