Why Mosaic Juniors?

What is Mosaic Juniors?

Why kids lose their innocence as they grow up? Their natural selves, open minds and curosity is replaced by stereotyped thinking. Who is the culprit: Gadgets, Technology, Being part of the Rat Race. The pressure to fit in does more harm than good.

At Mosaic Juniors we try to keep the growing up phase as fun & full of creativity as possible. For Kids Aged 8-14 years.

What's our Story?

To get the answer, you have to go back in time with me, when we started offering classroom coaching for Design & Architecture entrance exams. We offered classroom coaching for 10 long years before moving completely online. And during this phase I realized that drawing & theoretical portions can be taught very well to the students. But there were other important topics like creativity, observational skills, lateral thinking & imagination skills. These were important part of the course curriculum. But very few aspiring students showed these traits naturally. 

Though, our course was backed with a lot of creative & observation based exercises, the task was difficult. Mainly because, most of the students joined coaching in Std. 11th or 12th and were already under the pressure of Board Exams, tuitions and other competitive exams. So, we felt they were in the cramming up mode whereas entrances demanded something else. With time, we came to the conclusion that we need to start the work at an early age, when the kids are more receptive and open & not conditioned to stereotyped thinking.
