Frequently asked

Questions parents abroad ask us

Does my child need a powerful computer?

No. We use Google Colab (free GPUs) and Kaggle Kernels. Even a basic laptop works.

Is Python prerequisite?

Junior teens — no. Mid teens — Python fundamentals helpful. Older teens — Python is required.

Is this a real path to AI research?

By year 3 of the Older teens tier, students have research-grade portfolios. Many of our alumni have continued into top global universities.

What's Novin Zehn's AI background?

Our instructors actively work in research and industry, including at Iran's leading AI lab. They use these exact tools daily.

What about timezones?

Multiple class times per week across EST, PST, GMT, CET. All sessions recorded.
