Ms. Karen Slim the passionate, charismatic Manager of The Little Engineer says:

 "TLE’s aim is to bridge the gap between schools and universities and prepare its students for the challenging future in the areas of Engineering and Science. Our values serve as a compass for our actions and describe how we behave in the world." 

Leadership: The courage to shape a better future

Collaboration: Leverage collective genius 

Integrity: Be real 

Accountability: If it is to be, it's up to me 

Passion: Committed in heart and mind 

Diversity: As inclusive as our brands

Quality: What we do, we do well 

The Little Engineer is no stranger to some of the schools in Qatar such as Al Jazeera School, Al Mahd School, Al Maha, Qatar Academy, Compass Gharafa, Madinat Khalifa, and Al Rayan where the kids have been enjoying some structured technology time as part of their school curriculum!

Café Ceramique is the sister company of The Little Engineer and now they also have sessions at both the Café Ceramique outlets at the Gate Mall as well as the Mall!

We asked Karen to describe a typical course for us so that the parents are aware what would their children learn! Here is her description!

At TLE the description of any course always falls down to our great 5Cs.


Connect: our students connect the brain to the sensors and actuators

Construct: our students start to follow our instructions to start building there models

Contemplate: our students start to program the model they have completed







Complicate: the most important part of the program is when our students have to troubleshoot the problems that are occurring in the mission to reach the objective of the class

Continue: education and continuity of the tweaking and adjustments of models will go beyond our classes

 

The Little Engineer always aims for continuity, they have tracks and those tracks include a set of courses tailored for each age group. After completion of a track the students can take another track of higher level.

At the end of each course a certification is awarded which is accredited from the International Accreditation Organization (IAO)

Over all, Karen is satisfied with the interest she sees here in Qatar and aims to spread their contents to more people and reach more enthusiastic students, even though the competitors are a challenge she is confident that at  The Little Engineer she and her team would  do their best and work towards motivation, development, and perseverance to achieve success!

Our sincere thanks to Karen for taking her time to give us all details! Next time your little guy or girl is fussing with boredom you know where to take them for some quality fun technology time!
