KEY ELEMENTS of our program





Programming Mindset
Our Coding Program For Kids Oakville aims to instil a "Programming Mindset" in our students. This mindset helps build a strong foundation in programming, which facilitates learning new languages with greater ease. Regardless of the programming language learned, our curriculum is crafted to enhance proficiency in this critical thinking mindset.

Systematic Approach
Our comprehensive coding curriculum takes a step-by-step and systematic approach to building student coding concepts, skills and knowledge. First, kids learn basic concepts and then progress to more advanced topics.
Students develop their coding skills gradually in multiple areas, including 2D animation, storytelling, game design Coding games, app making, sensors and circuit design coding, web development, Python and object-oriented programming. They get introduced to AI concepts at the Advance level; with our systemic approach, students build a solid foundation and gain confidence in their coding abilities.

Learning Through Hands-On Experiences
Instead of just studying theory, our coding lessons lets students learn by doing things. They get to experience hands-on learning. First, they build the foundational concepts followed by more advanced concepts through coding languages that allow them to program according to their ideas. Advanced concepts they will learn include algorithms, conditional statements, loops, variables, sequences, events, and functions.

Visual Programming Tools
Our coding lessons are designed to teach foundational concepts using visual block programming tools in a fun and interactive environment. These tools have pre-made blocks of codes that can be combined to create a sequence of instructions and are easy to understand.
Once students build the proper foundation using visual tools (block programming), they transition to text-based programming languages to learn the syntax and grammar of the different text-based programming. This transition from visual to text-based programming languages happens gradually over time.

Skill Development
Our coding for kids lessons are designed to enhance students' skills, critical thinking, coding knowledge and understanding by teaching how a computer works, and they learn to think computationally. They develop problem-solving and logical thinking skills, learn to write code based on given instructions, solve problems by writing and debugging codes in different coding languages and become proficient coders.
In addition to these technical skills, our coding lesson helps kids improve their abstract reasoning, promote creative thinking, develop decision-making abilities and improve social skills as they work in the team environment. Overall, this program offers a well-rounded set of skills that will serve students well academically and professionally.

Kids are introduced to a visual programming language to teach them the simple process of designing and building games, allowing children to experiment with different concepts and ideas without getting bogged down by the technical details. Children develop creativity, problem-solving and collaboration skills by working through video game development coding programs.


App Development
At this level coding classes, kids are introduced to App Design concepts and design basics in a fun and interactive environment using block-based programming. They learn to code, including loops, conditionals, and variables. They also learn App design, creating user interfaces that are easy to use and visually appealing. Throughout the program, they create different apps. As the level progresses, kids are introduced to databases and make apps to work with simple databases.
Sensors and circuit design
It is a unique level, kids are introduced to basic sensors and circuits using a microprocessor board. They learn how sensors work, how to access them and then write a simple code to make a decision based on receiving data from the sensors. They also learn about simple circuits in the coding classes. They program LED lights, motion sensors, touch sensor, temperature sensor and different buttons etc.


WEB DEVELOPMENT
(HTML/CSS/JAVA SCRIP)
Kids are introduced to HTML, CSS and JavaScript at this level. It is a great way to transition to text-based coding from block-based programming. Initially, in the first level, they learn HTML and make simple websites using HTML. In the second level coding classes, they learn CSS coding and make a responsive website using HTML and CSS. Lastley, In the third level, they are introduced to JavaScript. They learn to use HTML, CSS and Javascript together and make interactive websites.
Python And Object orentied programming (Foundation to AdvanceD)
Python is easy to learn and understand. After completing the Web Development level (HTML/CSS/Java Script), it becomes easier for the kids to understand the programming concepts and solid understanding of variables, data types, control flow and functions. After building their foundation in the coding classes, they are introduced to Object Oriented Programming concepts, including encapsulation, abstraction, inheritance, and polymorphism.

TESTIMONIALS
Owners and teachers are very friendly and passionate about their work. School offers a lot of great classes and camps for kids at two different physical locations as well as online. My child has been taking multiple classes at GEMS since last few years and it gives me immense satisfaction to watch him learn and grow important skills that will be beneficial for him in future.

Speaking from personal experience, this learning institute is a jack of all trades and truly excels at each aspect of it! The chess program here is excellent, the curriculum is filled with interactive teaching that is both fun and challenges for your child's mind. As for the gems squared program, it is essentially an after school math program, which is equally excellent. It provided the perfect amount of extra support for my sister, and I could personally (and quite quickly) see her math skills enhance every week, and in turn this reflected well on her math abilities in school. And finally, the coding program (my personal favourite) is also fantastic. The curriculum itself is very encouraging and will honestly develop and advance your child's coding skills, and will only cultivate and grow their love for learning about technology. As well as that, the quality of education provided here is excellent. 100% would highly recommend.

I had an excellent experience at this school. In 2017, I graduated as an Honour Roll student from the UCMAS Abacus & Mental Math Program. After three years of learning, facing new mathematical challenges, and competing in the annual national and provincial abacus and mental math competitions, I continue to hold gratitude for my benefited future due to my attendance here. Another outstanding accomplishment at the institute is I attended the Robotics and Coding Program. Both programs successfully helped me and continue to do so in many areas of my day-to-day life, including my education and employment. I recommend these programs 100% for all age groups.

GEMS Learning Institute is a great institute. The teachers here are hardworking, dedicated and qualified. They work hard to help children gain and improve in their mental skills. When going to GEMS Learning Institute, every child’s mental skills get stronger over the years. The founder, Mrs.Madiha, has done a great job in my 3 years at her center. She does chess, tutoring, robotics, and UCMAS. As a graduate of UCMAS from this center , I am proud to say that the teachers, founder and everyone else part of my journey has done an excellent job.

My family has been very pleased with the UCMAS program and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to other parents considering additional math instruction to complement their children’s in-school programs. It has helped our child's concentration, cognitive ability and confidence. We have seen demonstrable improvement in their math results at school. What differentiates this program from others is the phenomenal teachers….they are simply outstanding! They have the children’s best interest at heart and they recognize that every child learns differently and at varying paces. To accommodate their needs, these teachers adjust their teaching methods and techniques to each child’s individual learning style. Most importantly, they make the classes fun and entertaining. UCMAS is more than a mental math class, UCMAS is the foundation of learning. We truly believe that the skills our children have acquired from this comprehensive program have enriched their education and will be beneficial for their learning skills as they continue their schooling.
Bushra Yasin
My son has been attending this outstanding UCMAS program in your institute for last one year under the supervision of dedicated and excellent teachers and friendly staff. He has built comfort, speed, accuracy, and confidence with big and small numbers. It has helped my son concentration, cognitive ability and confidence. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to other parents considering additional math instruction to complement their children’s in-school programs. The best part of your institute I like is, teachers recognizes that every child learns differently and at varying paces and your teachers adjust their teaching methods and techniques to each child’s individual learning style. I truly believe that the skills my son is acquiring from this comprehensive program have enriched his education and will be beneficial for his learning skills as he continue his schooling. Finally I would like to say UCMAS Gems ““Keep up the good work! We salute you guys!”
