Robotics & Coding
Whether you have a son who’s in preschool or a daughter that’s going on six years old, enBRIDGEment offers robotics classes that children as young as pre-kindergartners can enjoy. Our junior robotics engineering classes use educational kits like LEGO® WeDo™ Robots to create a perfect mixture of fun and imagination that can help expand your young child’s creative mind. We introduce students to robot design and computer programming using basic machine principles to create robots capable of performing simple tasks.
Invention Lab
Raise our kids to think outside the box! Our Founder created this class to help raise the next generation of innovative thinkers and creative solution-seekers. She believes that being constantly exposed to STEAM stimulates the young minds to perform better in all aspects of life. Our Founder studied many different fields and graduated with multiple degrees in Music, Electrical Engineering, French Literature, and a JD in Law. She worked as an Intellectual Property/Patent attorney for several years where she assisted scientists, engineers, and inventors to secure patents for new products and solutions for tech companies as well as individual inventors. This class mimics the scenarios of her real-life professional experiences. Students will step into the shoes of scientists, mathematicians, engineers, and artists to solve a set of problems by working individually and/or in teams to come up with creative and unique inventions that effectively overcome the problem. Students will have an awesome time doing hands-on projects to invent innovative products and solutions with the materials provided.
STEM VR & SpaceVR
Experience the awe of traveling through space and orbiting the Earth! Our innovative and immersive technology provides an awesome virtual experience that takes the students on a voyage beyond their imaginations! We’ll explore our galaxy – the moon, sun, stars, Mars, blackholes, and more. Students will get a perspective of our Earth like they’ve never seen before - through the eyes of an astronaut. Each week, we’ll take a journey to a different world, a different time, a different dimension. We’ll travel to ancient Rome, ancient Egypt, dinosaur’s time without actually leaving the room. Students will experience the magic of virtual reality for each environment in full 360, looking all around them and imagining themselves being there. Oculus Quest headsets will be provided to students during class.
LanguageVR
We’ve created an awesome curriculum for each LanguageVR class. Our classes are taught by native speakers. In regular language classes, students have very little chance to practice speaking with native speakers since there is often one teacher per class. With our innovative LanguageVR technology, students will learn a set of modules (with certain vocabs, phrases, and grammar) each week, then they’ll step into stunning and authentic places to practice speaking in a real-life scenario! They’ll visit Paris cafes, boulangeries, and boutiques to order crepes, croissants, and clothes in French, or go to Rome and Florence to see splendid art galleries and practice speaking with the natives. This program allows students to genuinely engage in real conversations with native speakers without feeling stressed or embarrassed. We have seen students progressed ten folds as they eagerly immerse themselves into these amazing cultural experiences while having a blast learning to speak a beautiful language.
Math Explorations
Math, math, math! Math is everywhere we look! Join this fun class while we go inside and outside to explore how math is crucial in our everyday life! We'll become engineers, chemists, architects, chefs and artists! We'll learn to count, multiply, divide, and measure to design building and structures, use geometric shapes and Pythagorean Theorem to determine how tall a tree or building is, use fractions to prepare a dish with various recipes, look at sports and determine the speed of a traveling ball in a tennis or baseball game, and understand speed limit, miles per hour and how to calculate estimated arrival time shown on GPS systems. We'll form teams and play math games and create complex mazes and puzzles while having a blast developing our critical thinking skills.
Awesome Science
We are not kidding when we say that we offer the widest and most fun STEM curriculum in the Bay Area! With a strong background in engineering, biology, chemistry, and medicine, our Founder along with our physician CEO and our team of techies, carefully created each project for this class to give our young students a variety of awesome STEM experiences from building mini boats and ships out of different material such as clay, wood and plastic to observe the concept of buoyancy, play games such as throwing and dropping balls of different weights and materials and calculating their speeds by measuring the distance and using a stopwatch to determine the amount of time the balls are in the air, build mini airplanes and study the concept of aerodynamics and how airplanes are able to fly, and learn about different kinds of forces, motions, and kinetic-potential energy by observing and building catapults and air cannons. We'll also have fun learning about mammals, marine biology, ecology and more! Come join us as we discover, investigate, design, and create!
