Iranian heritage.
Global ambition.
For 14 years, Novin Zehn has built champions in robotics, AI, and coding —
sending Iranian students to the world's top universities and tech companies.
Now we bring that same education online, worldwide, in English and Persian.
Our story
In 2011, a small team of engineers in Tehran asked a simple question: What if Iranian children
could compete with the world's best, on equal footing?
Fourteen years later, the answer is everywhere — in the labs at University of Alberta, in the
engineering teams of Berlin tech companies, in PhD programs across France, and in the startups
our alumni are now founding.
Today, Novin Zehn is the largest dedicated STEM academy in Iran with 28 specialized programs
and 40+ international medals. Our students have stood on podiums at RoboCup, FIRA, RCAP, and
ZedTech — and built careers that span continents.
Why we built bilingual online classes
A few years ago, parents in Toronto, Berlin, and San Jose started reaching out:
"My child speaks English at school. They're losing their Persian. And they want to be an engineer.
Can you help — from here?"
Yes. We can. That's why we're online now — for them, and for the thousands more who haven't asked yet.
The Novin Zehn philosophy
Most STEM programs teach. We do three things — in this order:
📚
Learn
Concepts taught playfully, with our proprietary Persian-language IDE for kids.
🛠️
Build
Every quarter ends with a real, tangible project. Things your child shows off.
🏆
Compete
Year-end exhibition or international competition. Real stakes, real growth.
