WHAT WILL MY CHILD LEARN IN EACH PROGRAM?

Minds of Tomorrow is about helping your kid develop their Creative Mindset. In other words, their ability to come up with unique, innovative solutions to problems, challenges and opportunities they will encounter in the future. The Creative Mindset is formed by four abilities: The Design ability, The Computational Ability, The Entrepreneurial Ability and The Engineering Ability. All our programs mix these four abilities. Is this blend of Abilities that truly nurtures and amplifies the Creative Mindset of your kid.

WHO ARE THE MoT MENTORS?

We have an amazing team of creative mentors that guide our members' journeys. Our mentors have a diverse skill set ranging from technical computer scientists to artists and filmmakers. The one thing every MOT Mentor has in common is that they are engaging, fun, and love working with kids. All of our mentors complete the MOT training program and are background checked and fingerprint vetted.

WHAT IF I CANNOT MAKE MY REGULARLY SCHEDULED SESSION?

Members are invited to make up any session on a different day/time within the week. 

MY CHILD HAS LEARNING DISABILITIES, IS HE/SHE WELL SUITED FOR YOUR PROGRAMS?

Since our programs are very hands-on and are often open to creative expression, they work well for all types of learners. We also maintain small, personalized group sizes to ensure our mentors have 1:1 time to support everyone in the group.
