My son has improved leaps and bounds with synthesis. He looks forward to it every week. He used to get things wrong and get upset and cry. Now, he has learnt to fail fast, determine how to do better, and then quickly change strategy to get a winning outcome. This has also translated into his confidence at school and in life, and his complex problem-solving is years above his 9 year old self.

Hi Andrew,

It's amazing to hear that your son has become more receptive to making mistakes and has realised that mistakes will eventually lead to discovery.
We are eager to help him advance his skill set in the future sessions.

Synthesis for 2 children (11y and 7y)

Both my children use Synthesis as an addition to their regular school. I love how they are working on important skills (teamwork, leadership skills, using their voice, etc.) in a fun way. They don't realize their learning, but instead feel like they are playing a game with friends. I love the teachers who work with them as guides in their experiences each week.

Compelling addition to traditional classroom education.

My child has been involved with Synthesis for about 2 months now. He really enjoys it and would be sad if he couldn't do it. He especially enjoys the "Hollywood" sessions.

Synthesis is worth taking a closer look at.

my daughter likes it

my daughter likes it, it's challenging when she tries out a new game in the beginning. It took her some time to figure out how things work, but after that she really enjoy playing the games.

If mastering the art of logic and strategy could be fun for kids, it's only through synthesis.

Hi Joanna,

We are glad that the student is enjoying the learning experience and we hope to see them delve deeper into the said topics.

It's inventive

It's inventive, it's quirky, it's fun, it's challenging. The UX leans into the program philosophy of embracing creativity and experiencing curiosity without fully understanding what you're getting yourself into. It's an exciting program for a young person. Perhaps it's a helpful counterweight for kids who have too much structure and guiderailing elsewhere in their lives.

Hi Tim,
Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback!

We definitely aim to help students feel comfortable with uncertainty and in the process develop their problem solving skills.

Synthesis is amazing!

The level of cooperation and learning how to strategize and think outside the box is just light years ahead of what you get from public schools. You pick your schedule and as many classes as you want! Wish I would have found this sooner, can't recommend this enough!

Exceptional Extracurricular for Kids

Stellar experience for my child. Excellent customer service. Comparing Synthesis to other ways my child could spend their time, I can’t imagine what would be better. My kiddo is developing superior social skills, advanced thinking skills, high levels of self control, self confidence, all in the name of becoming a Super Collaborator. Highly recommend!

Synthesis has been amazing for my son…

Synthesis has been amazing for my son in improving his analytical skills within a controlled fun environment. The games are engaging and he has become more social and really shown his leadership qualities since joining.

This is not school, so he finds it fun. Could not give it a higher recommendation.

We were very excited when we joined

We were very excited when we joined. Unfortunately, the excitement dwindled away with each cohort meeting.

If children yelling, speaking over all others, swearing, someone yelling out Racist to someone, your child feeling lost and asking for help only to be helped occasionally IF the instructor can hear them, your child feeling they learned absolutely nothing then you might like it.

This seems to be great for children who are extremely agressive, verbally push all others voices to the side, if they enjoy yelling and being disrespectful to all others you will find this a perfect fit. Your child will excel and have their behavior encouraged.

Hello,

I’m sorry that your child’s Synthesis experience left you feeling disappointed. We take feedback very seriously and we’re reviewing all the recordings as what you’ve written here is quite serious and this is not reflective of what we want anyone’s child to experience.

When we finish our thorough investigation, we will reach out to you personally as we don’t share private information publicly.

Once again, please accept our apologies and pass them onto your child too - you expected better and we let you down.

My 10-year old son loves it

My 10-year old son thrives in this online community. He’s a deep thinker and not a very social person. Playing Synthesis games has helped him develop team work, communication skills, leadership skills, problem solving skills and so much more. He loves using the computer because it challenges his very curious mind and seeing him online with other kids/collaborators and a mentor makes me happy. I would love to see more student events available in the future and hopefully see the chess events back. I’m so glad I found this program for him.
