Website

Coders Passion is a provider of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) education services in Singapore. In order to prepare students as effective 21st century citizens, we need to provide them with the opportunity to learn all the digital skills, necessary for them to use relevant technology and teach them how to use that knowledge responsibly. We believe this can be accomplished by developing what is known as the "Seven C's". These C's include: critical thinking; creativity and innovation; collaboration; cross-cultural understanding and communication.

We believe that a learner must be given the freedom to play and experiment, as this experience is part of their lifelong learning journey. We believe in empowering our students with control over their learning experience, where all inquiries are treated as constructivist models for them to personally and socially manipulate.
