Frequently Asked Questions
At Next Robotics, we aim to provide a worry-free experience for parents and an engaging learning environment for our students. Your kid only needs to bring indoor shoes and a water bottle to class. We provide all the necessary robotics parts and equipment, so there's no need for students to bring any additional materials. This ensures that your child can fully focus on learning and exploring the exciting world of robotics without any extra hassle.
Generally speaking, we do not prepare make-up lessons for missed classes at Next Robotics, as our classes are carefully prepared with specific materials and a teach/student ratio. However, we understand that special circumstances may arise, and we are willing to arrange a make-up lesson on a different date or class if certain requirements are met. Please feel free to contact us directly to discuss your child's situation, and we will do our best to accommodate their needs. Our priority is to ensure that every student has the opportunity to fully engage with our robotics programs and experience the benefits of our curriculum.
At Next Robotics, we primarily communicate with our parents through emails. Additionally, you can find our General Course and Club Meet calendar posted on our website, providing easy access to important dates and events.
Our goal is to ensure that you stay informed about our offerings and upcoming activities through these channels. If you have any questions or require further information, please feel free to stop by or reach out to us via email.
Next Robotics is an organization that focuses on providing robotics education and competitions for elementary students. It is facilitated by the same group of people who founded Western Mechatronics Robotics (WestMech), a non-profit organization that focuses on robotics Education/Competitions and events for students in Grade 7 and up.
Both organizations share the same goal of promoting STEM education and competitions and fostering a love for robotics in students, but they operate as separate entities with distinct focuses on their target demographics.
Next Robotics stands out from other robotics education providers for several reasons.
Firstly, we specialize in VEX Robotics, which sets us apart as VEX Robotics hosts the largest robotics competition in the world. This allows our students to not only receive top-tier education but also the opportunity to participate in high-stakes, global competitions.
Additionally, our instructors are experts in VEX Robotics and are dedicated to providing personalized learning experiences for each student. We prioritize hands-on learning and problem-solving, ensuring that our students develop practical skills and a deep understanding of robotics.
Lastly, our curriculum is constantly updated to incorporate the latest advancements in the field, giving our students a competitive edge.
At Next Robotics, we are committed to fostering the next generation of robotics enthusiasts and professionals.
Next Robotics offers very affordable programs for children interested in robotics. The courses (meet once a week) and the exclusive club teams (meet twice a week) are all priced at under $300 per month. This pricing structure allows us to make our innovative robotics education accessible to a wide range of families, while still providing high-quality instruction, materials and competitions. Our commitment to affordability reflects our belief that all children should have the opportunity to explore and excel in the exciting field of robotics.
At Next Robotics, our standard policy is that there are no refunds after registration, as our spots are very limited and significant preparation is required in advance.
However, we understand that circumstances can vary, and we value the individual situations of our students. Therefore, we are open to discussing credits on a case-by-case basis. If you have a specific situation that you would like to discuss, please don't hesitate to reach out to us, and we will do our best to work with you to find a satisfactory solution.
