DREAM SEEDS CAMP
Why We LEAD
Mission & Vision
Our aim is to give children an environment where they can learn the skills they need to be healthy, well-rounded people. Through project-based workshops, kids experiment with exciting cutting-edge technologies at their own pace. They are given the freedom to express their creativity while developing non-cognitive skills through cooperative groupwork, all in a fully English-speaking context. Our international teachers help students by pointing them in the right direction, without oppressing their self-expression.
Our Values
We are concerned that conventional schools do not nurture many of the skills kids need to succeed in life. At Dream seeds, we aim to incite their curiosity, feed their creativity, and promote free, independent thought. Real problems are not solved by simple memorized formulas. Let's teach kids the right way from the start. Entrepreneurs and innovators need to be able to ask the right questions and look for their own answers. These soft skills permeate our technological and language-based activities.
Platform-independent learning
The cutting-edge of today might be obsolete tomorrow. It is a poor long-term plan to just teach kids how to use the best tools available now--rather, we believe a general, platform-independent technological fluency is preferable. Our curriculum includes topics that are common across a wide variety of fields, from engineering to art, that have proven to be a solid foundation for almost any professional.
English
There's no better way to learn a language than by complete immersion. At Dream Seeds, our native-speaking instructors create a space where everyone, no matter their skill level, can feel comfortable learning and working in English. If a student needs extra help, our dedicated language teacher will make sure they receive the attention they need.
Programming
We should strive to teach our children skills that will continue to be useful for the lives. That's why we approach programming as a collection of ideas for solving problems; a set of concepts rather than the strict commands used in a single programming platform. Our curriculum is thus designed to be useful for any programming language in any platform, containing skills that extend beyond the context of computers.
Drones and Robotics
"Automation" is a term finding its way into nearly every industry and field. Robotics are a very significant part of this phenomenon. We believe it to be important to familiarize kids with these concepts, and the capabilities of these technologies, not just in the field of manufacturing, but in other domains in which we find robotics today, from transportation to filmmaking.
Presentation Skills
Whether in the academic or corporate environment, an idea is only good as how well it is conveyed. The communication of ideas depends on a combination of technical knowledge, language ability and soft skills. At Dream Seeds, children learn and practice communication through public speaking and writing, building both their confidence and abilities.
Digital Art
Self-expression is a vital skill for all individuals, and for many, this manifests itself in the form of art. Digital art is a exists in many forms, from digital painting to music production and video editing. We aim to empower our students with these exciting new tools to broaden their horizons. These skills can also be useful in professional fields, such as design and marketing.
3D Modeling and 3D Printing
A rapidly growing technology in the field of engineering, 3D printing is here to stay. Combined with 3D modeling, anyone has the power to turn their ideas into concrete objects. This empowering combination is not only fun and exciting for the kids, but also teaches them about manufacturing processes, project design and spatial thinking.
