BEHAVIORAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL BENEFITS

Participating in an international competition allows students to demonstrate their determination and gain self-confidence. Students create their own accounts on a digital platform, follow them, and thus have individual responsibility throughout the competition process. During the online exam, students learn how to use their computer skills carefully and correctly, as well as time management. Evaluating the achievements of students with a score of 50 % or higher with medals, certificates, and other valuable prizes will greatly benefit students' motivation for the future. Students see technology as a tool for learning as well as entertainment.

EDUCATIONAL BENEFITSStudents compete with their peers and students in the same class from different countries and take the time to prepare for the category in which they will participate.In addition to traditional teaching methods, they observe and practice the explanation of some topics in various styles through the use of interactive simulations. Students learn about various educational curricula and discover new information in addition to traditional question models. Students will add a Certificate of Participation, a Certificate of Achievement, and medals to their success portfolio, which they will use to apply to universities for admission and scholarships in the future. Students will gain an understanding of how Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics are interconnected with one another under the name STEM and it will change their perspective on lessons. Participants in the computer category will receive this opportunity free of charge through the STEM Olympiad if they did not previously have access to a coding platform. The awards presented to students will inspire and motivate them to pursue careers in engineering and coding.

We've designed our classes to be family-friendly and our goal is to be the most flexible provider in the industry.

Coding can be a great tool for kids with short attention spans, as it allows them to engage in a hands-on and interactive learning experience.

Coding projects are often broken down into smaller, manageable steps, which can help to keep kids focused and on task. Additionally, the immediate feedback provided by the computer can help to maintain their interest and motivation.

Through coding, kids can also develop their problem-solving and critical thinking skills, which can translate to improved attention and focus in other areas of their lives. Coding provides a sense of accomplishment as they see their ideas come to life through the projects they create, encouraging them to stay engaged and continue learning.

Combining Maths tuition with coding can help children fall back in love with Maths!

We understand, family schedules can be hectic.

We've designed a world-class curriculum that is project based and self-paced.

What does that mean? It means that your child can attend any scheduled class, any day.

If you need to cancel at short notice, no problem, our booking system allows you to easily cancel, book and rebook. We've designed it especially for busy families. 

We understand needs and priorities change, and you may need to cancel classes. We do request that you give us a 30-day notice of intent to cancel. You may do that by sending us an email with the date that you would like to stop.

However, we are not able to refund you for any classes that you have missed in the months before.

Our Camp cancellation policy is as follows:

30 days prior to the start of camp refund minus a $10 processing fee

14 days prior to the start of camp 75% refund.

7 days prior to the start of camp 50% refund.

Less than 7 days prior to the start of camp, no refund. 

Our refund policy is strong because many of our summer programs sell out, and the closer that we get to the start of camp, the harder it is to find a replacement.

In many cases, our owners have paid for staff, equipment, and software, and those funds are not refundable. Monthly memberships require 30 days cancellation.

Learning to code can help kids with screen addiction in a number of ways.

First, coding provides a purposeful and productive use of screen time, as kids are using technology to create and build something meaningful, rather than just passively consuming content. This can help to shift their relationship with screens from one of passive consumption to active creation. 

Coding requires critical thinking, problem-solving, and other cognitive skills that can help to develop the brain in ways that may reduce the attraction to screens. By learning to code, kids can also gain a deeper understanding of how technology works, which can foster a more mindful and intentional use of screens.

Overall, coding provides a constructive and educational way to engage with technology, which can help to reduce screen addiction and promote healthy screen habits.

Face to face learning is a valuable experience for kids, offering numerous benefits that cannot be replicated through online or remote learning. At Skill Samurai, our classes are all conducted face to face in small group settings, which allows for personalized attention, interaction with peers, and real-time feedback from instructors.

Research shows that face to face learning produces the best results, as it provides a more engaging and immersive experience that helps children to stay focused, retain information, and develop important life skills. By working together with their peers, kids also have the opportunity to develop teamwork, leadership, and communication skills, which are essential for success in school and in life. Additionally, face to face learning can foster confidence and resilience, as children are able to see their progress and receive recognition for their efforts in a supportive and encouraging environment.

Overall, face to face learning is an essential component of a well-rounded education and provides numerous benefits that help kids to thrive and reach their full potential.
