In IT classes children learn to design websites, work with vector graphics software, develop games, build 3D models and program. All these skills will be immediately put into practice. While working on their projects, children will learn to work in a team, develop their soft skills, plan projects and achieve their goals.

Who is it for?

For kids
aged 8 to 9

Children will learn to work with text and vector editing, as well as creating animated videos. They will create presentations, pick up programming and even operate a virtual robot.

For teenagers
aged 10 to 11

Children will study computer technologies, programming, the Internet, network security. They will create their own video-games and 2D and 3D characters for them, LEGO robots and Arduino-based gadgets.

For schoolchildren
aged 12 to 14

Our students create tech projects from ground up and develop professional gaming applications, web-sites and their own start-ups. All these skills will be applicable as the child grows, regardless of their speciality.

What we teach

Today, students study technology that will be relevant in future

Python programming

Programming is one of the main skills that will be in demand in future. We help our students take up programming from the very basics.

Develop a video-game design

Our students study GameDev using Unity, Kodu and Construct 3, as well as design and animation for their own 2D and 3D projects.

Program an Artificial Intelligence and build robots

In classes children learn programming, assembling and testing robots, creating and operating AI.

Build websites and mobile apps

Students will build websites using one of the most popular programs – CMS Wordpress. They will design application logic for a smartphone using detectors, such as accelerometer, gyroscope and QR codes.

3D modelling and 3D printing

Students will learn to model 3D objects and design characters and environment. Additionally, they will study 3D printing and preparing 3D models for production.

Develop applications for AR (Augmented Reality)

Children will work in MIT Ap Inventor and use cameras, graphs, animations and sounds to build VR an AR applications.

We do not have lectures and abstracts. We learn through practice. Each class is an adventure, where a child has fun, as well as learn something new and useful.

We have created an environment where learning is comfortable and interesting to every child. Our classes are well-equipped with up-to-date technology.

Tutors of the Junior STEP Academy not only teach but inspire, support and help children explore their potential. Every one of the staff is an experienced working specialist and a true professional.
