The Power of Parental Involvement in STEM METS Learning
Tue, 24 Sep 2024
At STEM METS, we're passionate about igniting a love for science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) in children of all ages. But the true reward comes from witnessing how our programs nurture young minds and empower them to explore their passions. Today, we'd like to share the inspiring story of Isioma Udeozo's son, Chukwuyelu (affectionately known as Chuchu), a shining example of the transformative power of STEM education.
Chuchu's journey with STEM METS began at the tender age of three, when he joined our after-school program at Les Petits Genies nursery school. From the very beginning, he embraced the fun and engaging activities we offer. Isioma shares, "Chuchu has never missed a midterm boot camp or a holiday boot camp, if he can, at STEM METS. He absolutely loves it."
At first, Chuchu, like many young children, dreamt of becoming an engineer. But as he progressed through our programs, his interests began to evolve. "Since he was five or six," Isioma explains, "Chuchu was clear in his mind that he wanted to be an engineer... He's nine years old now, and he has pivoted towards the amazing world of animation and gaming."
This exciting shift is a testament to the diverse range of STEM experiences Chuchu has gained at STEM METS. Our curriculum includes exposure to cutting-edge programs like Roblox education and Minecraft education, sparking a passion for animation and game design in Chuchu. Isioma acknowledges, "I think that's because of all the exposure from Roblox education, Minecraft education, and the likes."
At STEM METS, we believe in nurturing each child's unique talents and interests. Isioma beautifully captures this sentiment: "We're trying to nurture that as just parents and encourage him on this path."
But Chuchu's story goes beyond academic and technical skills. Isioma goes on to say, "In our house, STEM METS isn't just a training center. STEM METS is family to us." This resonates deeply with us. We strive to create a supportive and encouraging environment where children feel comfortable exploring, learning, and growing.
Isioma's heartfelt words of appreciation resonate deeply: "I would really like to say thank you. STEM METS it's really been an amazing journey. I'm really glad and thankful for the exposure to all the things from just general science, STEM, mechatronics, gaming, Roblox, and animation."
Chuchu's journey is a powerful reminder of the transformative power of STEM education. We are incredibly proud of his growth and excited to see where his passion for animation and gaming takes him in the future.
