What unique about our camps?
- Our instructors: They are experts in the own respective fields. They have completed the study of the subject matter and are in the exploration/discovery/play mode. They know how to share complex ideas into language that your child can easily understand.
- Our curriculum: It is a modular system with varying levels of challenges to fit the individual camper’s needs. They provide solid foundation of concepts and freedom to extend to intricately complex projects.
- Beyond camp: Our camps help campers to find their desire to explore and learn. Their final projects at camp are a beginning of an idea. An idea that will evolve, change and bloom into a passion of life-long learning for the subject matter.
- Our tools: We share the list of equipment and software we are using with the students, parents and guardians. If the camper decide to continue their projects or expend their studies, parent/guardians can provide/acquire appropriate tools.
