Get Your Children
Ready for the Future

40% of the jobs in 2030, will be jobs that do not currently exist. We are here to help your children spark their curiosity, discover incredible learning avenues and become self-directed learners for life.

Entrepreneurship

Developing a mindset of an entrepreneur enables children to grow up not only to be consumers, but the producers the future needs. It’s more important than ever to gain entrepreneurial skills, build experience and better understand what it takes to become their own boss.

Coding and Robotics

Your kids will learn how to create technology, not only how to use it. Understanding how to communicate with machines will be one of the most important skills of the future.

Math & Science

The foundational skills of math and science are deeply rooted into all STEM jobs. Your child will discover the best way to learn math and science and how it can be applied across all careers.

The Love for Reading

To have a love for reading enables learners of all ages to stimulate their imagination and expand their understanding of the world around them. Reading is the best way to develop language, listening and storytelling skills.

The World is our School

Diversity in their everyday learning, working with classmates and teachers from all over the world, as well as exposure to different cultures, traditions, and practices, will help your children learn how to work and interact with all kinds of communities and concepts. This experience will help them gain a more sophisticated, open-minded and worldly view.

Foreign Languages

Learning a foreign language will double your child’s opportunities in life for their education, career, business, traveling and making friends around the world. It also helps them improve their listening skills and become more empathetic. It also makes them smarter.

The most flexible schedule

We designed Galileo for modern active families who want a self-directed education for their children, aged 8-18, with a flexible schedule that gives them the freedom to live their lives and travel as they wish.

The Power of Soft Skills

They may be called “soft,' but they are remarkably powerful. With Galileo, your kids will do much more than exploring their favorite topics.

Learn More

Online Collaboration

This is not an ordinary online school. Your children will meet with peers from all over the world, create valuable learning engagements, discuss their opinions, share their discoveries and create coding projects together. With the help of our teachers, they will collaborate on creative projects.

Complex Problem Solving

With Galileo, your child will learn how to have the mental flexibility to think outside of the box, see the big picture, and reorder ideas to find a solution.

Public Speaking

Our students present to their classmates something they have discovered in their learning every 2-3 weeks. The presentations are a great way to practice expressing opinions and presenting them in a coherent and engaging way. Students express their personal opinion, while respectfully tolerating the viewpoints of others.

Creativity

Your children will thank you when they are grown for encouraging their love of learning. They will discover countless ideas from a wide variety of topics which will spur their imagination.

An Educational Journey

Every student is a hero in our school. We are here to help them elevate their knowledge and reach their full potential.

Daily Live Check-ins

All students can talk to their teachers about any learning challenges they have. Their dedicated teachers are here to help.

Weekly Classes

Every club has weekly meetups to learn new concepts, explore new tips & tricks, and discuss their progress.

Weekly Office hours

If students are ever stuck on a complex math, coding or robotics problem, they now have a specialized teacher to ask for help.

Self-Directed Approach

The Best Learning Platforms

We are constantly searching for the best educational platforms for our students. These are just a few of the best platforms we recommend at this time.

Reading is the Foundation of Learning at Galileo

We believe that finding your love for reading is the key to becoming a life-long learner. Like our popular book club, we also have coding, math and robotics clubs. We will soon launch art and language clubs.

Nothing is mandatory and everything is inspirational

Every week we organize office hours for students that need extra help. We also offer many optional classes and workshops to introduce them to new and interesting topics.

Workshops & Office Hours

Galileo has given my kids motivation to do more schoolwork than they were just by having accountability to someone other than their parents. They are becoming more familiar with technology and more comfortable with presenting to their peers.

With Your Children's Future in Mind

At age 16, every student will choose between one of four paths:

Launch a Startup

With our 1 year Launchpad program, we help students launch their own startup including concept development, writing a business plan, applying to an accelerator and preparing their pitch for funding.

Go to College

If students wish to attend college, we will help them prepare for entrance exams, provide transcripts and documentation and help with the college application process.

Train for and Start a Career Quickly

With alternative options like Lambda School (learn to become a software engineer) and Praxis (Apprentice at a Startup), students can quickly learn in-demand skills and get jobs within a year of starting.

Freelance or Start an Online Business

Freelancers and online entrepreneurs (ie social media manager, digital ad agency, youtuber, blogger, influencer etc.) can set their own goals and create a plan to follow those goals. Through self-directed learning experiences at Galileo, our students will be creating the jobs of the future.
