Curious Kids Deserve More Than Standard School Science
Why Most Science Learning Falls
Short for Curious Kids
YouTube videos and online courses lack structure and often contain inaccurate information
Regular school science moves too slowly for advanced young minds
Parents lack expertise to guide their child's interest in complex topics
Generic programs use simulations instead of real scientific equipment
Large class sizes mean no personalized attention from expert instructors
How Quantum Academy Provides
Elite Level Education
Learn directly from Prof. Mark Baraket (M.S. Astrophysics, UC Berkeley, former NASA)
Control real professional observatory telescopes in Chile, Australia & Canary Islands
Small groups (5-12 students) ensure personal attention and mentoring
Structured 12-week curriculum with guided notes and homework
Live interactive classes where every question gets expert answers

What Parents are saying:
"It was invaluable to have someone who actually worked for NASA teaching my daughter about astronomy. He was very encouraging and helped build the confidence of each student."
"This was some of the best money and time we have ever invested in his future. Mr. Baraket opened up new opportunities for our son that he may otherwise never have had."
"My son enjoyed the class so much and was giving me lessons after his lesson. The class was fun for him."
"My 12-year-old daughter very much enjoyed this class. She thought the use of the telescope was an incredible experience and we plan on keeping the Slooh subscription."
"From the very start, the teacher captured my son's imagination with their enthusiasm and deep knowledge of space."
"My NASA-obsessed son loved the class. He learned so much and had a blast doing it!"

How It Works
Your child can attend live Zoom class sessions with an actual astrophysicist.
Each Zoom class is 50 minutes long. The class meets once a week over 12 weeks.
During the Zoom sessions, your child will learn about a wide range of astronomy topics and how to use observatory telescopes to take high quality photos of astronomical phenomena.
Courses are capped at 12 students. Space is limited; reserve your child's place.

FAQ:
Is this course appropriate for my child's age and skill level?
Our course is designed for ages 8-13 (approximately grades 3-7). We have a flexible age policy - younger children can participate with parent support, and older children are welcome if interested. No prior astronomy knowledge is required.
How does controlling real telescopes actually work?
Your child will access professional-grade telescopes through our partnership with Slooh.com, which operates observatories in Chile, Australia, and the Canary Islands.
Will my child stay engaged for the full 12 weeks?
Our interactive format and hands-on telescope control creates genuine excitement that passive video learning can't match. Each session builds anticipation for the next discovery. We have a 97% completion rate across all our courses.
What's your refund policy if my child doesn't enjoy the course?
We offer a satisfaction guarantee. If the course isn't a good match for your learner, you can request withdrawal and receive a pro-rated refund. We can also transfer to another section if there's a schedule conflict.
What technology/equipment does my child need to participate?
Just an internet-connected computer or tablet. All telescope access and software is provided through our platform. We'll help you set up your course account and telescope access before the first class.
