🏗️ Turning Screen Time into Skill-Building Time!

Are you looking for a way to channel your child’s love for gaming into real-world skills? Our Building Cities, Building Teams course for Early Accelerators does exactly that!

We use game-based learning (Cities: Skylines) to help students explore:
- Critical Thinking: Making tough decisions to keep a city thriving.
- Social Skills: Moving from individual play to high-functioning team collaboration.
- Confidence: Sharing their progress and celebrating wins with a supportive gaming community.

The week ends with a fun, positive introduction to esports, emphasizing that how you play the game matters just as much as the win. 🏆

Apply today if you have a budding gamer ready to take on the challenge! 👇
