“My students love STEAM Hub! As a teacher with no STEM experience, STEAM Hub gave me everything I needed to support my students. The courses were extremely well organized, user-friendly, and ensured all learner needs were accomodated. Without STEAM Hub I would not have been comfortable introducing my students to STEM. Thank you!”

Miriam S., Teacher

“I loved STEAM Hub! The video lessons were extremely helpful since I barely knew anything about coding when I started. It was easy to follow the instructions and I learned that there are so many things you could do with coding. Now I know the basics of coding! I’m really happy with STEAM Hub!”

Alex G., Student

“Both of my boys have been working through the courses and love it! The lessons and instructions are so clear and easy to follow. The assignments are challenging but connect well to the lesson so it’s not too hard. The personalized feedback on their assignments has been wonderful!
