Hi, I’m Vishay! As a kid, I took a variety of STEM classes, but I never learned the most there. It was in my room, spending hours experimenting, dropping Mentos into Coke bottles, taking apart electronics, and trying to build things that barely worked. Most of it failed, but that is where I actually learned how things work. That is the same energy I bring to NovaSTEM. I care about each student because I know what it feels like to be curious without the right space to explore. Real learning happens through experiments, challenges, and figuring things out yourself. That is why NovaSTEM focuses on experiences, not just concepts. My favorite moments are when a student’s face lights up during an experiment or when something finally clicks. That excitement is what I want every student to leave with.
