Mistakes are part of the learning process.

We believe that mistakes aren’t setbacks—they’re essential to learning. Genstem classrooms are positive, encouraging spaces where mistakes are allowed to happen as a way for students to learn by doing. Students are taught to celebrate experimentation, embrace iteration, and develop the resilience to try again. Teachers support this mindset by modeling curiosity, encouraging risk-taking, allowing failure, and guiding students to reflect constructively on their experiences.
