Program Description

Our self-paced program is flexible and adaptable, allowing students to learn at their own pace and in their preferred environment. Each track consists of five levels, with a carefully curated curriculum that covers key concepts, vocabulary, and real-world applications. Students engage in a three-step learning process: Memorize, Recall, and Apply.

Memorize

Students must complete six core tracks to graduate (see above). Each track consists of five levels. The first stage of each level is to memorize important vocabulary, facts, and concepts.

Recall

Students use our proprietary active recall platform to transition memorized information into long term memory.

Apply

After a student knows the key ideas and concepts they are presented with a challenging hands-on engineering project that directly applies their knowledge. In order to move to the next level you must pass a dissertation style presentation in front of a panel (via Zoom).

AI Tutor

Along the way, every child has access to a personalized tutor that answers questions and provides instructions to your child.
