OUR HISTORY
Five years ago, we started teaching programming lessons to children. At first, we would only focus on digital skills, as we found them to be especially important to children’s future success. Of course, we also knew that children love to play computer games, and we were interested in making education fun. As such, we started using platforms such as Minecraft and Roblox.
READ MORE
We noticed that children are interested in learning about the world around them in the process of playing and learning. We realized that this can be used to motivate students to study various sciences and topics that are difficult to learn from a textbook. Back in our time, lessons at school in mathematics, physics, and chemistry were terribly boring and ineffective. We started to figure out how to teach different subjects such as mathematics, chemistry, physics, geography, programming, and history using Minecraft and Roblox. We carefully prepared for each lesson and used the STEAM approach. Some of our classes went with a bang, but some left the children indifferent. We conducted more than 2000 such lessons and selected a large library of mini-games and lessons in Minecraft and Roblox lessons that were interesting for children.
The main thing we learned is that children most of all like to invent and create. Therefore, we want to expand this activity and create an environment where we can provide children an opportunity to create their own educational quests and games for their peers. We want to create a community of parents and children interested in learning about the world around us and a safe environment where we can constantly communicate based on an interest in knowledge.

We nurture responsibility, shaping future leaders for an engaged, civic-minded society.
EMPATHY
We foster a compassionate and caring community for a brighter, connected future.
FINANCIAL LITERACY

CRITICAL THINKING

OUR TEAM
Tatiana has 3 higher educations and an MBA, but she always strives to constantly learn something new. She has 15 years of cumulative experience in education and the development of methodological materials. For her, the most important thing in educational technologies is the support of children’s own initiatives – Tatiana believes it helps children become active citizens and entrepreneurs. In the last couple of years, Tatiana became interested in using interactive technologies to educate children.
Kristina has been engaged in marketing, advertising, and promotion – including educational events – for 10 years. Kristina knows first-hand that publicity is just as crucial to the success of our mission as developing quality content, and as such, her task is to inform as many people as possible about the possibilities and impact of our projects. For us, Kristina’s experience in running advertising campaigns on Google Ads and social networks is crucial.
Ekaterina joined the Discovery School project back when it were still just a programming school. At first, she was mostly working on providing educational materials for our classes – homework and worksheets, beautiful presentations, and infographics. Over time, she became more involved with our classes and became an educator. Now, she uses her game development expertise to design and develop our experiences, focusing on making our games not only interesting but also fun to play.
