Question 1

How do recurring payments for monthly In-Person Classes work?

Accepted Answer

Students are billed on the 1st of each month and your student's seat is reserved for them at the same time each week. Students are required to let us know by the 25th of each month if they are not returning. Cancellations made after the 25th will receive an 80% refund. There will be no refunds once classes have begun. If you wish to change your child's class time, please contact us directly (see 'Schedule Change Request' button above). Please note, Mindstorms Fundamentals and Scratch Introduction payments will not recur until your student moves up to the next level.

Question 2

Are there refunds for missed classes?

Accepted Answer

No. We are a small family business dedicated to the small class sizes and great teachers that provide such enriching experiences for children. We will try to schedule a make-up class if at all possible, but usually it is not. Young Engineer and Robot Academy, Jr. students who have opted for the take home kit will have the opportunity to build missed projects at home once they receive their kits.

Question 3

What's the difference between the basic and take home kit options for LEGO classes?

Accepted Answer

The take home kit option is available for Young Engineers and Robot Academy, Jr. students only. Students have the same in-class experience each week. Students opting for the take home kit are given a 3-in-1 kit to take home at the end of each month with access to the pre-recorded video classes. In addition to building a great LEGO Technic home library, the purchase program allows students to make-up missed projects and rebuild their favorite projects at home.

Question 4

In the case of discipline issues, we reserve the right to remove students from programs with no refund. There will be a $1 per minute charge for students picked up more than 15 minutes after the event ends. Students will not be refunded for missed classes.

Question 7

Can parents participate?

Accepted Answer

Our guided video classes for use at home are designed to provide about 3 hours a month of parent/child (or often grandparent/child) enrichment and exploration and we highly recommend adult participation.

For in-person classes adults are welcome to stay but we generally discourage it. Our teachers are experts at what they do.  They recognize that students mature differently at this age and in addition to a top tier goal that each student completes each project successfully, they are working behind the scenes to build confidence and independence which can be more challenging with parents helping.  We do encourage parents to join the class each week at the end to see what their children have built.

Question 8

Do students need to register for the whole year?

Accepted Answer

For Virtual Classes, students can join at the start of any month and are billed monthly.  Payments can be paused or stopped at any time before the 20th of each month.  Please email us at programs@therobotgarage.com if you’d like to stop your next payment.

For in-person classes students can join at the start of any month, although they can join mid month if we have an open spot. In-person classes can be cancelled at any time before the 25th of each month.  Cancellations made after the 25th will receive a 80% refund. There will be no refunds once classes have begun.

Question 9

What is the difference between mailed subscription kits/classes and the in-person classes?

Accepted Answer

Virtual video class subscriptions are designed to reach students anywhere in the world. Because students have access to the kits and videos at home projects can be done at their own pace.  Pause the video and take a break or replay a section that didn't make sense the first time. 
 
In-person classes are a more traditional environment with other students and at teacher leading the class and assisting as needed. There is an option for students to purchase a take home kit for an additional fee.
 
In both cases, students have access to the same great teachers, and same great projects. In-person classes cost more to cover our instructors’ costs.

Question 61

Can I participate in the LEGO robotics subscription program if I don’t live near one of The Robot Garage locations?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. This program is designed to bring The Robot Garage to your doorstep. If you subscribe to a LEGO robotics program, a new kit will arrive around the 1st of each month and will contain everything you need to build the three new projects for the month. You will sign into a video portal on our website, and there you will be able to access the hours of video tutorials for the three projects.

Question 62

Can I keep the LEGO that is shipped to me each month?

Accepted Answer

Yes! The LEGO is all yours. Most of the LEGO we use is from the more expensive Technic engineering line and designed for building projects that can move. Think Ferris wheels! Kits will focus on Lego Technic gears, axles, pins, lift arms, tires, etc. You may have a lot of LEGO at home already, but this is a great way to start building a LEGO engineering library for your child. Many kids like to pretend their creations can move, but this program is designed to teach them how to make those ideas come to life in a fun way.

Question 63

Why do I need to purchase a starter kit also?  How is that different from the monthly kits?

Accepted Answer

Our starter kit includes the electronics that will operate all your monthly projects. For Robot Academy ,Jr and Robot Academy, it includes a LEGO WeDo hub, motor, and motion sensor. Once you download the free WeDo software, these tools will turn each build into a robot by connecting the programs you code with the project you build. For Young Engineers, the starter kit includes a battery pack and motor. We are not teaching this youngest group of preschoolers to code just yet, but the battery pack and motor will make all their projects move.

Question 64

Are the starter kit electronics under warranty?

Accepted Answer

Monthly subscription boxes are ineligible for return. We have stringent quality control expectations but should you find you are missing a piece, please notify us within 10 days of kit receipt. For the LEGO starter kit, refunds, repairs, and/or replacements are made if we determine an item is defective. It is the customer's responsibility to handle these three electronic pieces carefully. Please contact us at programs@therobotgarage.com if you need to discuss a WeDo quality problem. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer.
