EDVON is an online private tutor academy that offers Coding, Robotics,  Mathematics and Experimental Science Classes for Kids ages 6-18, to equip them with 21st century technical and soft skills. 

 We have developed all the courses based on motivational design strategies and gamification to make e-learning fun, engaging and productive for the kids to equip them with 21st century technical and soft skills.

We have designed four curriculums to build the force of innovators and creators.

Our first curriculum is "Coding for kids” where we teach coding skills to the kids from introductory level to advanced level. The series of coding courses are designed in a way that will help the kids to easily grab the fundamental concepts of coding by making interactive games in Scratch programming followed by android app development, website development and coding in Python. 

The second curriculum is “Robotics for Kids” for those who love robots and interested in hands-on activities. The series of courses are designed to teach the core element of robotics, which include electronics, coding, mechanical designing, computer vision and product development in the field of robotics and automation. 

The third curriculum is “Mental Math” for the brain development of the kids. The series of courses will train the kids to do the mathematical calculation in their minds without using the calculator. 

The fourth one is not the curriculum but a special online tutor program for kids ages 6-16 to teach them traditional Mathematics, Computer, English and Science subjects with practical activities. This track is specially designed for kids who are studying in schools but not able to grab the concepts in a particular subject due to traditional teaching methodology in their schools. In this course our online tutor will be following the school’s curriculum but the teaching methodology will be totally hands-on to clear the concepts of each topic in the subject. It will not only improve their grades but also help in brain development.

In all the courses we have designed practical activities to teach logical thinking, problem solving, critical thinking, communication and collaboration to the kids, it will help them to grow in their professional and personal life.

We use the STEAM E-learning portal to teach all the courses where students can login on specific time of class with video calling. All the live classes are recorded in real time so that the kids can watch the videos later anytime if they want to revise the concepts. Students complete all their assignments and quizzes on the STEAM E-Learning Portal. 

We have a subscription model and pricing depends on the package that students can cancel anytime. In all the courses we provide money back guarantee within two classes, no question asked. 

EDVON believes in equipping the kids with the right skills set that will help them to grow in their personal and professional life. Following are the fundamental beliefs of EDVON program that will help your kids to be more productive and help them to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in their life,

Personalized Mentors

According to Oprah Winfrey,   

“A mentor is someone who allows you to see the hope inside yourself.” We believe that mentors play an important role to succeed in life.  That’s why we call our teachers as “mentors” instead of instructors due to the fact that we do not want them to be only good at technical subjects but they must also possess leadership qualities to inspire and motivate the kids while teaching coding, robotics, mathematics and science subjects.
We assign a mentor on a group of students (maximum 10). Our mentors understand your kids while teaching and try to mold the teaching techniques to provide the maximum personalized learning experience to your kids. The key benefit of personalized mentors is that your kids will be learning at their own pace. Mentors also guide your kids about which fields are growing and have demands in the future and most importantly how they can prepare themselves to get into the top universities.

Progression-based Curriculum

Every kid has a different learning curve and we respect this. That’s why we have designed a structured curriculum in a way that will help your kids to understand the basics first and then slowly grab the advanced topics with hands-on practical activities throughout the course. We have divided the online STEAM courses in following four categories because all the kids have different learning patterns,

• Coding for kids: The courses in Coding for Kids are totally based on software or simulators, and all the projects and practices are done on software because some students are not interested in learning hardware. The sequence of courses in this category is designed to teach fundamental concepts of coding on Scratch Programming followed by android app development, website development and python programming. These all are the programming languages that prepare your kids for school and college exams and play an important role in improving their grades. Most importantly all these programming languages even help your kids to get into top computer science universities.

• Robotics for kids: Robotics is one of the most growing fields and kids mostly like to play with robots and this category is ideal for those kids who break their remote control cars to explore what is inside and their parents are annoyed due to their energy and passion to make their own physical projects. The beauty of robotics is that it's a multidisciplinary field and provides the opportunity to learn electronics, coding, mechanical designing and hardware product development, simultaneously. The sequence of courses are designed to teach basic electronics followed by programming in Scratch and Python, programming C++ in Arduino, Programming Raspberry pi in Python and making autonomous cars using computer vision. The courses help your kids to understand the fundamental concepts of physics and mathematics that will help your kids to get good marks and most importantly can help your kids to get into the top robotics universities. 

• Mental Math: This category is essential for the kids for their brain development and financial literacy. The sequence of courses are designed to train your kids to do the complex mathematical calculation in their imagination without using the calculators. It will help your kids to get good grades in mathematics and develop their critical thinking that will help your kids in the long run.

• Online Tutor: We understand that sometimes parents want their kids to learn new skills like coding, robotics and mental math but due to workload of homework from school, their kids cannot take such online courses. This category is specially designed for such parents to help their kids understand the core concepts of the subjects they are studying in school. You can say this category is the same as home tuition for your kids to teach them what they are learning at school to improve their grades. The difference we are providing in this category is that we are providing online best mentors for your kids from best universities to teach your kids the traditional subjects like Mathematics, Science, Computer and English with hands-on practical activities, to make your kids love what they are studying in schools. We guarantee that your kids will definitely improve the grades in class and our mentors will train them to become confident in their class.

 Develop Soft Skills

Soft Skills often known as “people skills or emotional intelligence”, these skills are equally important as technical skills but mostly parents underestimate its importance or do not know how to built-in such skills in their kids. Soft skills are basically attributes of  someone’s personality and as parents we have to be very careful what attribute our kids should possess to be successful in this modern age.  Inculcating emotional intelligence in kids is not as easy as teaching technical skills such as coding, robotics, science or mathematics, because it's a long term process and cannot be taught theoretically. It can only be built-in into the personality of the kids with a series of hands-on planned activities that can slowly be practiced by the kids without even telling them that we are teaching them these incredible skills. We have adopted the  “Learn by Doing” methodology in all our coding, robotics science and mathematics courses to teach soft skills to your kids. According to World Economic Forum, following are the most important soft skills we should teach to our kids to  make them globally employable and run a successful business, 

• Communication: The ability to present your complex ideas in a way that everybody can easily understand, is called effective communication. Communication is one of the most important skills for your kids to be successful in school, college and life. Breaking complex algorithms into simple steps while coding robots help your kids to understand how to bring clarity in their ideas. The practice of writing complex algorithms into simple terms trains your kids to effectively communicate with others. 

• Creativity: Robotics, Coding and Mathematics promote the culture of creativity and innovation among the students. There is a misconception about the definition of creativity among parents that creativity is all about drawing art, painting or storytelling. But Creativity is all about Thinking Differently. The good news for parents is that creativity can be taught to your kids. We have designed project based challenges in all our courses that will help your kids to think out-of-box to solve particular challenges. The continuous practice of solving different open-ended challenges related to robotics, coding and mathematics train your kids to think differently and hence boost their creativity. 

• Teamwork and Collaboration: Working in a group to make coding and robotics projects is one of the key features of EDVON STEAM classes. The purpose of letting kids work in a group is to teach them one of the essential skills needed to be successful in this modern age, teamwork and collaboration. Kids work with each other, choose their leaders and plan the timeline to complete their projects. The practice of such sequences in each project prepares your kids to be successful throughout their life.

• Problem-solving: Problem-solving is the trait that we all should have, because we all face problems on a daily basis, it doesn't  matter if it is small or large. Coding robots is one of the most fun and engaging ways to teach problem-solving skills to our child. When students are coding to move the robot, they learn how to solve problems in simple steps. The problem-solving is a life skill that will help your kids in day to day activities.
  
  Persistence: The act of accepting a challenge and keep working hard to make it work, even after failing many times is called persistence. It is not easy to teach persistence to our kids but it is an essential skill our child must have because we do not want our kids to give up after facing real life problems. Coding robots teaches our kids to come up with different ideas to solve the given problem and keep trying innovative tactics until they succeed.
