Our Curriculum
At Blooming Minds Academy, education of mind is our top priority. We structure the curriculum around the best world learning methods. It helps children learn the syllabus faster and remember it better. Our curriculum encourages students to gain knowledge by experimenting and searching for answers, reflecting with the instructor, and then coming back and revising the material consistently. While the foundation of our curriculum has roots in Russian Math, Science, and the methods of Language teaching, we are firm believers that education cannot have a cookie-cutter mentality, and no one method of teaching will fit all children. We strongly encourage our instructor to adapt our demanding curriculum to the children’s individual needs in a class. For over 10 years, this approach allowed us to produce successful learners excited about meeting new challenges, as their educational foundation is solid.
