No! It really does not matter. Scholars, academicians and researchers have long believed that children should learn to solve problems in multiple ways to truly master those concepts.The topics covered will generally be the same in most every curriculum However, it is the methodology and the way concepts are presented in a fun and interactive manner that make this program unique. Moreover, learning to solve in multiple ways gives students a deeper understanding of the subject, enabling them to think outside the box. With our program, your child will learn at a deeper level of understanding that will provide a solid foundation for higher grades. They will truly achieve extraordinary results, similar is the case for science, technology & engineering

Therefore, we have re-defined our role from that of “teachers” to that “Learning Facilitators.” Our Learning Facilitators are trained in the art of teaching through self discovery. The more we expect from and the more we challenge our children, the more they learn. Learning Facilitators aspire to be well informed guides, explaining details when necessary, but more typically asking children to generate their own solutions and calling on students to evaluate the accuracy or relevance of an answer. They spend little time lecturing.[/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”What other curriculum will be taught at STMEshala.com in future?” open_toggle_text_color=”#ffffff” open_toggle_background_color=”#e02b20″ closed_toggle_background_color=”#e02b20″ icon_color=”#ffffff” use_icon_font_size=”on” icon_font_size=”18px” _builder_version=”4.0.2″ title_text_color=”#ffffff” body_text_color=”#ffffff” border_radii=”on|5px|5px|5px|5px”]

If you have given at least 24 hours of notice of cancellation via email, our Customer Support team will help to schedule another lesson with another class. This is, however, subject to availability. If another class session is not available, our dedicated tutor will usually make arrangements to meet up with the student for a short private session to cover the missed lesson. Prepaid program fees are non-refundable.

Please note: STEMshala.com members will have access to our exhaustive library where, in addition to many other documents, recorded lessons will be kept for students and parents. These lessons are a great way to review missed material or to revisit lessons for further review.
