“My time as an iD instructor was really formative. I stayed with STEM in college as a Computer Science and Electrical Engineering major, and now I’m working at Google in Chicago. If you find yourself thinking about STEM-related things outside of school, follow that passion. Major in it. Keep pursuing it.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How can entrepreneurship be taught to kids?

One guiding principle of teaching kids entrepreneurship is that it’s difficult for an idea to flourish in a vacuum. Thus, the interactive nature of our programs helps kids refine their ideas and move them toward achieving full potential.

Why should my child learn entrepreneurship?

According to Inc.com, 93% of successful entrepreneurs started as kids and teens, so that begs the question: why aren’t there more young entrepreneurs? By exploring entrepreneurship, teens will have practiced what can take years to learn with the benefit of collaborative feedback and industry-tested advice. New knowledge (and perhaps a killer business idea) in hand, they’ll be ready to approach school, their hobbies, and life with a whole new outlook: one of a budding business leader.

What college and career opportunities can these lessons lead to?

As we’ve seen time and time again on Shark Tank, teens can step into the shoes of a CEO! Whether they’re looking to launch their own business right away, bolster their resume, or to learn what it takes for future ventures, this course will prepare them with versatile skills and life lessons from the best in the biz.

Is this lesson suitable for all skill levels?

Absolutely! Because our Online Private Lessons are 1-on-1 with an instructor, the curriculum is customized to meet your child's skill level, unique interests, and long-term goals. Whether they are just starting out or super advanced, our experienced instructors will engage them to bring out their best!

What is the Online Private Lesson experience like?

Our Online Private Lessons offer live, 1-on-1 learning with an experienced, USA-based instructor and curriculum tailored to your child's interests and skill level! Once you select a topic and purchase a lesson package, you can easily choose your instructor and schedule a 60-minute lesson for the date and time that works best for you.

Once scheduled, you can share notes about your child and any specific goals they might have. When it's time for their lesson, your child will connect with their instructor via Zoom. You will receive a post-session progress report via email so you can track your child's success!

What are the technical requirements for this lesson?

Each child will need a Windows or Mac computer with audio and video capabilities. We do not recommend tablets or Chromebooks, as the multi-tasking ability between Zoom and other required software is often unreliable or nonexistent.
