SUMMER CAMP INSTRUCTORS

Our Learning Labs At Your Facility
Don’t see a location near you? Contact us and we can customize our curriculum and camp education materials specific to your needs or you can choose from the wide variety of camps we already have available..
We will tailor your camp to the time frame you need whether it is a full, five days 9 am-3 pm camp, a one day camp, a 3-hour workshop, an after school program or free MAKER event.
We believe in letting kids learn and explore at their own pace. Our students work in teams (we do our best to place students with similar abilities together so they can challenge each other) and our instructors tailor teaching and guide each team. This allows us to spend more time explaining fundamental concepts to some students while introducing advanced concepts and challenges to others. In other words, no one gets overwhelmed, everyone gets challenged, and no one gets bored!
Our Learning Labs are designed to prioritize hands on fun, active engagement, and an integrated, multi-disciplinary approach to problem solving. ESTEAM Learning Labs is an inclusive learning environment and all welcomes children.
