Science does not need to be dry or dull; with a little more art and creativity, it becomes much more enjoyable!
What is STEAM?
STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. It comes from STEM + Art, which in German is MINT + Kunst.

What is special about this course?
- Small group
Each individual is different, and only in small group size can the course facilitator attend to individual needs and adapt to their way of learning. - Fun and solid
Some children need more precise instruction, while others need more freedom to express themselves. The course facilitator provides both theoretical and experimental opportunities to explore a specific topic. - Expert guidance
Dr. Bai conducted experiments to investigate human behavior in labs across three countries. She recorded brain signals and analyzed them. Additionally, she has experience working with school children in both public and private experimental schools. - International and multilingual
As mentioned above, the primary language of the sessions will be German. However, individual and behind-the-scenes communication may also be conducted in English and Chinese. We warmly invite families from around the world and the local region to participate in our innovative projects. - Learning friendly environment
The course will take place in the Green Room at Raumfläche, a spacious and well-designed seminar room with ample natural light from large windows.
