After School Programs in MA / Boston Area
Empow Studios:
Empow Studios brings technology, arts, and play together to help young learners (Grades 2-8) discover and build on their creative talents. We provide after school tech and design camps and technology-based enrichment camps in summer and year round at our center in Lexington, Middlesex County MA (just 15 miles north-east of Boston). Our goal is to empower kids to create projects that they are proud to share with family & friends. Whether that's designing, building, coding, or a combination of all three, every kid should have the opportunity to learn the empowering tools within digital art, computer science, and engineering, which can potentially spark interests for future ambitions in STEM.
Why Choose Empow Studios?
- Emphasis on Child Creativity
We emphasize storytelling and creativity, and technology serves as a tool to tell stories in a rich way. Guided by our instructors, all campers learn technical tools at their own level and pace as needed for the selected projects.
- Individual Attention
We pay attention individually to a child’s emotional makeup, reading level, ability to work independently, ability to sustain focus, and other developmental factors. We also pair up more experienced campers with the less experienced to foster mentorship and support learning by both sides.
- Wide Range of Techniques and Coding Languages Taught
Depending upon the interests of our students, our teachers will teach specific techniques of animation, programming, app development, HTML, blogging, electronics, digital audio, 3D printing, and other topics we regularly cover.
