I learned many robotics skills on my own, and later found it easy to explain them to others. I enjoy working with the kids. Their wicked sense of inventiveness and humor continues to propel me forward. In class, I help shy students gain confidence, provide energetic ones with an outlet, and assist those who struggle to surpass even their own expectations. It was important for us to include this flexibility "to follow the student" into the program.

One of the most challenging tasks we have encountered is finding a robotics teacher. Techie Kids App was created in mind to include everything one needs to start a succesful robotics club without any prior experience at all. It provides building instructions, programming tasks, design & play suggestions, and so much more. The app is student oriented, but teacher controlled.
All in One Easy to Use App
Being a girl in robotics is tough. Boys usually don't pay attention to you until you outsmart them. My superpower was in the strategy. I observed, analysed, then combined the knowledge. We applied the same principle into the app. When creating instructions and presentations for the lessons, I delve deep, decomposing the model to its core elements, then putting it all back together. Each step must be logical and make sense.
