Who gets my transaction fee ?

Who gets my transaction fee ? The miner/mining pool who included my transaction in a block he/she/they mined ?

Yup

Does not the miner gets 25 BTC again for finding each block or these transaction fees actually sum up to that 25 BTC ?

The fees are separate from the the 25 BTC block reward.

The block reward is actually a subsidy to incentivize miners to mine in the early days of the network, as well as being a structured, predictable source of "new money".

Buy a TREZOR! Premier BTC hardware wallet. If you're reading this, you should probably buy one if you don't already have one. You'll thank me later.

Miner reward = 25 BTC + transaction fee.

A solo miner or pool gets 25BTC plus transaction fees. some pools, but not all, pass the transaction fees on to the miners in the pool.
