Stellar Program · Ages 12 to 14

Learning to Model: Grades 7 to 9

Name: STEM Classes for 12-14 Year Olds | Online After-school Program
Availability: InStock

Testing tells you what happens. Modelling tells you why, and what will happen next. In Stellar, your child moves from running experiments to explaining them with physical principles, building models of charge, current, heat and flight that they use to predict a result before they test it.

Stellar curriculum

Interdisciplinary modules. Experiments that build a model

Electrostatics

Electric charges, the forces between them, and static electricity in everyday life

Magnetism and Electromagnetism

Magnetic fields and poles, and how electricity and magnetism work together in electromagnets and motors

Oscillations and Waves

Vibrations and electromagnetic waves

Thermodynamics

Heat, energy transfer, and the laws that govern engines and refrigerators

Fluid Dynamics

Lift, drag and the forces of flight, and how fluids move

Year 1 Modules (2026-27)

Year 2 Modules (2027-28)

3D Design and Printing

Introduction to additive manufacturing and TinkerCAD platform for 3D design and printing

Classical Mechanics - Level 1

Predicting and designing motion of objects

Advanced Chemistry

The periodic table and electrons, shells and reactions

Electrochemistry

Interplay of electronics and chemistry

Applied Electronics

Foundational electronics to design real-world projects

10 to 12 sessions per theme. Each theme stands alone, so a child can join in any month.

What we do not do

And why we do not

No textbook tuitionWe build understanding, not exam shortcuts.

No blackboard teachingEvery session is hands-on and experiment-led.

No solving exam papersWe develop thinkers, not rote learners.

No ready-made projectsYour child designs, builds and owns the work.

Our son, Rohan, is in his third year with STEMonsters, and looking back, it has been one of the best educational decisions we’ve made. Now that he is in 8th grade, we’ve seen the curriculum evolve perfectly with his age. What sets this program apart is how it builds a rock-solid foundation of core concepts.

Our Educators

Our educators do not teach from a script. They are trained in how children learn, in the published pedagogy of our founder, Dr Sonali Dasgupta, PhD, IIT Delhi, and in facilitating small groups so that curiosity is the driver, not the teacher.

Questions parents ask

My child already studies science at school. What does this add?

School science in Grades 7 to 9 is mostly definitions and substituting numbers into formulas. In Stellar your child builds the circuit, measures the result, and explains the gap between what they predicted and what they measured. That habit of modelling is what school assessments rarely ask for.

Is this a science tuition?

No. Tuition follows the school chapter and prepares for the next test. Stellar follows themes such as electricity, heat and flight, and every session is an experiment your child runs and explains. It supports school science. It does not replace it.

Will it help marks?

Not in the next term, and we do not claim otherwise. What changes is how your child approaches a problem: from recalling a formula to reasoning from the principle behind it. We focus on competency and understanding, not marks.

Can my child join mid-year, or directly in Grade 8 or 9?

Yes. The year is made of self-contained themes of 8 to 10 sessions each, so a child who joins later starts a new theme with the batch. For Grade 9, addmission is decided through an interview with Dr. Sonali Dasgupta.

How would I know if my child is ready for Stellar or Pioneers Program?

We will advise the best program for your child after the written test and interview with Dr Sonali Dasgupta
