Dear Parents, I and my core team at RoboMinors have given 4 years of their lives in building a STEM Education system that is based on unrelenting determination towards the cause of invoking critical thinking and problem solving skills in our young generation – to give them the tools to excel in their lives and become leaders and innovators of tomorrow!

Nourishing a startup takes time – years practically. While we toiled hard through these years acquiring the perfect STEM and Robotics kits from all around the world, developing meaningful hands-on activities and setting colorful and vibrant learning spaces in our campus – COVID happened. As lockdown was (rightfully) imposed and all on-campus activities were banned, the future seemed bleak.

However, we decided to give the crisis a fight with all we had. All the learning programs that could be adapted to an online learning setting, were reviewed. Our staff worked day and night on the transformation where a new online curriculum was established alongside a new website with an online booking system. The online transformation took some time to mature – longer than we expected but we wanted to do it right. We tested the model extensively and locked the maximum number of students in each offering to 5 or 6 students (depending on the age group and content type). This is perhaps the best student to teacher ratio on offer. It costs us more but lets us sleep content at night that we are doing our best in these unprecedented times.

We look forward to welcome you all at RoboMinors. Explore this new world of learning opportunities, share your feedback and help us develop more meaningful content for our children.
