Project Based Learning To Prepare For The Jobs Of The Future

 

Welcome to Voxel Academy – STEM, Leveled Up!

We’re a team of makers and tinkerers, passionate about igniting curiosity and building skills that last a lifetime. At Voxel Academy, we don’t just teach STEM—we bring ideas to life. We love taking kids’ wildest ideas and running with them because, as we say, “Dream big, build bigger!”

Our STEM squad is always crafting exciting new curricula and hands-on adventures to inspire the next generation of scientists, engineers, artists, and coders. With nearly two-thirds of U.S. jobs requiring STEM skills—and that number growing every year—we focus on project-based learning that fuels creativity and helps students build impressive portfolios.

Some of our students have even come full circle, joining us as instructors to pass on their knowledge to the next wave of innovators. At Voxel Academy, learning never stops—because the future is built by those who create it.

Voxel Academy’s Mission

STEAM with an emphasis on personal growth and rewarding curiosity

 

Cutting-Edge STEM Education, Hands-On and Fun!

Give your child the opportunity to explore the latest in technology through immersive, hands-on workshops! For the past eight years, Voxel Academy has partnered with schools and organizations across New York City, bringing top-tier STEM programs to young innovators. From video game design and coding with Minecraft to 3D printing and beyond, our courses cover future-focused technology topics often recognized in AP and college-level curricula.

At Voxel Academy, we go beyond standard learning apps and games. While these tools are becoming common in classrooms, we believe that building your own apps and designing custom games is a far more engaging and meaningful learning experience. The rapid evolution of EdTech inspired us to create a program where students don’t just consume technology—they innovate with it.

Our approach integrates the real-world process of innovation into every child’s education. We don’t just teach skills; we provide the tools and knowledge for students to create the very content their instructors and influencers use today. At Voxel Academy, the future isn’t just something to learn about—it’s something to build.

Message From Our Founders

Voxel Academy was founded by former Makers, Creators and Innovators of After-School programs that suffered from untimely closures due to the pandemic.
Recognizing the void in the community that was left, we took action and committed ourselves to give hope back to the children and parents that we’ve come to love over the years. Witnessing the personal growth and confidence in the kids we’ve taught was such a rewarding experience, and we couldn’t give up.

Our Philosophy

Inclusion. Our workshops aren’t just for those who are inclined towards the subject matter; we make sure every Content Creator feels supported and inspired each day.

Relevant, forward-thinking skills. We choose applicable, cutting edge topics that matter in our workshops, supported by industry-standard professional hardware and software.

Putting the child first, always. Rather than sitting through online tutorials and cookie-cutter lesson plans, we maintain an evolving, organic curriculum that keeps our Content Creators excited about their projects and engaged in our workshops.

Common Questions

Knowledge is power, so empower yourself here with some common questions and answers.
Please contact us if you have any addition questions!

Great question! First of all, digital images are made up of tiny squares called Pixels but when you convert them into a 3-dimensional space they become Voxels. So simply put, a Voxel is a three dimensional upgrade of a Pixel.

We design our curriculum for all ages! We simply pace lessons differently based on attendance. Look for the recommended age on each topic but keep in mind they are only suggestions.

Most of our curriculum is written with all ages in mind but topics like Minecraft modding, Video Game Hacking and Game Dev are more advanced.

Nope! Our curriculum covers everything you need to know for a beginner but is also flexible enough to get more advanced for those who already have some knowledge on a topic.

STEM is an approach to learning and development that integrates the areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Through STEM, students develop key skills including: problem solving. creativity. STEAM is a newer acronym that includes A for Art. However STEM & STEAM are often used interchangeably.
