ABOUT
Our Philosophy
Learning by Doing, Growing by Being
We see every young person as a capable learner with unique potential.
We design learning that is:
-
Hands-on and inquiry-driven
-
Relational and human-centered
-
Competency-based
We do not simply prepare children for exams; We prepare them to navigate life with wisdom, resilience, and inner strength.
Our Mission
GrowMate™ empowers youth through interdisciplinary project-based learning and the guidance of role-model mentors, engaging them in solving real-world problems, developing AI-proof SPECCC™ soft skills, and making their growth visible and trackable through structured showcases and evaluation systems.
Our Vision
To become the global model for extracurricular youth PBL and soft-skill development, empowering every learner to grow into a confident, capable, and wise individual who can solve real-world problems and thrive in the age of AI.
The GREAT Values™
G — Growth Mindset
Learners embrace challenges, learn from mistakes, and keep evolving.
R — Real-World Learning
They connect what they learn with life, community, and authentic experiences.
E — Empathy in Action
They understand others, communicate with care, and act with kindness.
A — Action with Purpose
They learn by doing — driven by meaningful goals and thoughtful intention.
T — Team Spirit
They collaborate, communicate, and grow stronger together.
These values guide how our learners think, collaborate, and grow — both in projects and in life.

Our Mentors

Learning accelerates when youth are guided by relatable, inspiring near-age mentors.
GrowMate™ mentors from local universities coach learners through challenge, collaboration, and reflection — making each project more meaningful and human.

All GrowMate mentors are trained to guide learning through:
-
Head — Coaching purposeful thinking and problem-solving
-
Heart — Providing empathy, encouragement, and emotional support
-
Hands — Facilitating hands-on exploration and real-world action
This principle ensures mentorship is supportive, motivating, and transformative.
