VEX V5 Coaching Program

VEX V5 Coaching Program

We have new in person VEX Robotics coaching programs for students aged 12 to 18 years old that aim to develop students skills in electronics, iterative design, programming, teamwork and communication through our in person VEX Robotics programs. Students will be using the VEX V5 robotics kit and will go through a 35 week coaching program with the aim to then compete at the VRC Nationals in Thailand in 2025. The coaching program starts from March 2024 on Saturday with Steam Labs from 14.30 – 17.30 each Saturday and we have spots open for 12 students who are passionate about developing skills in STEAM.

What do our parents and students have to say?

I have been a student of VEX for many years. I started with Steam Labs after competing at VEX IQ for several years and then moved onto VEX V5 with Steam Labs. The experience with Coach Rob is like no other, he is dedicated to teaching me all core skills in electronics and programming and also encourages me to do better. I am excited going into my first VEX V5 competition this season to see how I do.

Having studied with Steam Labs for over two year, I can wholeheartedly say that it has been an amazing experience starting with a summer course in programming to now working on VEX robotics and just started with ethical hacking which has been extremely interesting. Through all courses, I've developed skills in problem solving, critical thinking and engineering that I wouldn't have been able to learn before. Furthermore, Mr. Rob is not only a coach or teacher but truly someone who cares and constantly gives great advice even about life. I eagerly look forward to continuing my studies with Steam Labs.
