Different and very important! Doyobi is a very different kind of learning. The kids are engaged in fun tasks, like fighting zombies who invade their city or negotiating with a dragon for the ingredients to make a potion to save the world. And while saving the world, kids are guided to learn and use skills like critical thinking, negotiation, problem solving, creativity, financial literacy, digital safety etc... All super important skills for the world today and in the future. I love that my kids are learning all these skills, not in a sterile classroom environment and not feeling like they are in a lesson or being taught. I was rather impressed when I overheard the kids having all these "worldly" discussions abt refugees or debating the tourist dollar vs. conservation. It is really an engaging, well-thought through and well-delivered product. Highly recommend!

Leadership skills for a quiet kid My 8yo has been with Doyobi for about two months at the time of this review. What attracted me to Doyobi was the promise that my child would find her voice, recognise why it is important to speak up and appreciate why her own opinion matters. Two months in and while she is still a quiet child, she gets really excited and passionate during the student-led discussions in class. The facilitators do a great job of ensuring it's a safe and supportive environment - they nudge discussions in a calm and firm manner and remind all participants to be respectful. They also ensure quieter kids have room to speak. The role-playing aspect of it is really great - my 8yo feels a sense of responsibility to the people she represents; and she knows if she doesn't speak up, their interests and opinions won't be heard. It's a realistic representation of how it works in the real world, without pressure or nagging from an adult to speak up. I think this is the first class of its kind where I've seen kids excited to turn up early to learn and discuss the clues from the last session to crack the mystery. Highly recommended for any child who isn't confident about having his or her own opinion, or is shy about speaking with others. Notes: Not recommended if your child cannot use the mouse independently, move with arrow keys or do simple things like click links.

A fun way for a kid to learn about the world Doyobi enables my kid (10 to 11 years old) to participate in simulated real world projects that explores various facets of the world, which includes nature, robots, AI. The knowledge learnt from the classes is only one facet of doyobi programme. Another more important learning outcome from the programme is empowering my kid to develop critical thinking (being curious about a problem and asking questions) and team work (participating as a team member in the conversation). After each lesson, I’m happy to see my kid excited to share about her learnings and her thought on the issue/problem (quests) raised.

Definitely different from school. My son attends the class with Doyobi. He learns a lot of things, from critical thinking, communication, metaverse even design (because the metaverse design is so cute and my son like to copy the layout, etc). My only concern is just the price. Hopefully it can stay affordable. Thank you.
