Do you love designing and building in Minecraft?

- Learn how to turn their blocks into art as well as basic aesthetic and engineering principles
Skills developed: Basic architectural principles, scale, creative thinking, spatial awareness.
By the end of the class: Your student will have the ability to draw out architectural designs and translate them into Minecraft buildings.
Materials needed: Minecraft or a similar type of building platform will be needed for this class, as well as coloring materials.
About the class: Classes meet once a week for five weeks. Each class meeting will last 75 minutes.
This course is open to all students ages 6-14. Students will be separated into smaller age groups post-registration so students will be in a class with students of a similar age. Content is adjusted per age group.
Why disorganized? For those two classes where the instructor didn’t show up, they changed the instructor. Kids have built a rapport with the initial instructor that makes sense for them to continue with the same person. Their unprofessionalism should not be affecting my kid’s education that they promised. I asked them to give me the same instructor. For that they said that can be done only a month later as she had other commitments. I have other commitments after this course as well for my kids. I cannot be available forever giving them how much ever time they need to complete their courses. So, I asked them to set it up with the new person. They did and those two classes were very good, I could see the motivation and excitement in the kids.
I reached out to the director and she said they are fixing their processes to monitor and correct better and faster. Would have been great it had been corrected before my kids’ sessions. 🤷♀️
Review from my kid: He laughingly said that the instructor asked them to not use words like “umm”, “uhh” when pausing a speech but she was doing that herself a LOT. We learned something in the last two classes as the instructor was good, but nothing much in the first 8 classes.
