LEARN Science & Math Club is a 501(c)3 non-profit. Since 2004, we have been providing kids from the Kansas City metropolitan area with rich science and math experiences through the use of robotics, engineering and programming projects and laboratory experiments. Kids who play more, learn more; so, we make fun a part of everything we do. And, we do a lot of exciting things here at LEARN! Since 2004, we have fielded numerous teams in the international FIRST Tech Challenge, the FIRST LEGO League and the Junior FIRST LEGO League. In these robotics programs, kids develop engineering, physics, strategy, collaboration and presentation skills. We also hold numerous classes, camps and one-day STEM events.

Aurora here. I am a mechanical engineer, university instructor, pilot, astronomer, and busy mom of four. I have taught science classes and workshops to over ten thousand kids since 1999. I started teaching Mechanical Engineering at Cal Poly State University at 21 (I graduated early!), and then started volunteering my time teaching in local high and jr high schools. I had also worked for NASA when I was 17 in addition to being a pilot, and all these things combined catapulted me into a life-long career in education and sharing my love for learning and science with others. I teach in a unique and totally fun way by having students focus on wonder, discovery, and exploration. My classes exceed state and national standards, STEM requirements, and are engaging, fun, and totally hands-on. My online school has won many awards: Top 100 Sites for Homeschoolers by Homeschool.com, Blue Ribbon Award by Old Schoolhouse Magazine, Top 101 Pick from Cathy Duffy and so many more! Myself, I won all kinds of awards when I was in school for mathematics and science. But I think the best awards I have ever received are the smiles I see on the faces of the students and parents when they get their a-HA! moments. I have a Bachelors and Masters Degree in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Mathematics and a specialized study in High Temperature Gas Dynamics during my PhD work at Stanford. My company, Supercharged Science, provides science education to families and teachers, and it really is an expression of what I am committed to: helping people enjoy science as much as I do, learn something new, and having a total blast.
