Question 1

What age groups are EdTech Academy's virtual STEM classes designed for?

Our virtual STEM classes are designed for students in grades K-8 (ages 5–14). We group students by grade band to ensure age-appropriate instruction: K-2 (ages 5–7), Grades 3-5 (ages 8–11), and Grades 6-8 (ages 11–14). Each level builds foundational STEM skills with activities matched to that developmental stage.

Question 2

How much do virtual STEM classes cost?

Accepted Answer

Virtual class pricing varies by format and duration. Individual session passes, weekly bundles, and semester enrollment packages are available. Contact us at info@edtechacademy.org or call (334) 296-2393 for current pricing and any available discounts for schools, churches, or community organizations.

Question 3

Are virtual classes live or self-paced/recorded?

Accepted Answer

We offer both! Our live virtual classes are instructor-led in real time with small groups of students, allowing for interaction, questions, and guided hands-on activities. We also offer self-paced recorded sessions that students can complete on their own schedule. Live classes are recommended for the best experience, but recorded options are great for busy families.

We rotate topics throughout the year to keep learning fresh and exciting.

Question 6

What equipment or device do students need to join a virtual class?

No special software is required — classes are hosted via a standard video conferencing link sent before each session.
