1-on-1 AI Mentorship by CS Graduates from IIT, BITS & IIIT

AI Mastermind is our year-round AI programme for Grades 7-12. Your child is matched to their mentor before the course begins and keeps that same person for all 25 live hours - finishing with a technical paper they write, and defend, themselves.

Your child's first class is a full hour, one-on-one with a mentor, at no cost - a real lesson, not a sales call. You’ll both know after it whether this is right.

What Your Child Learns Depends on Who They Learn From

Whoever your child is matched with will have come through the same filter - a computer science degree from an IIT, BITS or IIIT, a record worth reading, and a teaching trial before they are ever put in front of a student.

Comparing Programmes

What Sets Learn AI Apart

Every AI programme for teenagers teaches roughly the same concepts, because there is only one set of concepts. The variable you are actually choosing between is who delivers them - so it’s the only thing worth comparing carefully.

What you get with AI Mastermind

All of it, in writing, before you pay.

  • A CS graduate of IIT, BITS or IIIT, named and shown to you before you pay anything.
  • The same mentor for all 25 hours, so nobody has to be re-explained your child in week four.
  • Teaching as their full-time job — sessions don’t get moved because a work deadline slipped.
  • The same concept taught two ways, by tier, so a Grade 7 and a Grade 11 aren’t in the same lesson.
  • A reassignment on request, at no cost, if the personality fit is wrong.

What to check for elsewhere

Five questions worth asking any other programme.

  • Ask who specifically will teach your child. If they can’t name them before you pay, it’s a pool.
  • Ask whether that person teaches full-time or fits you in around an engineering job.
  • Ask how many children are in the session. “Small group” is usually eight to thirty.
  • Ask what happens in hour 25. If the answer is a certificate, nothing was assessed.
  • Ask what the same course costs for a Grade 7 and a Grade 11. One price means one lesson.
Inside AI Mastermind

A Structured Journey From Curiosity to Confidence

AI Mastermind is one course, not a subscription: 25 live 1-on-1 sessions across eight units, ending in a research paper your child writes and defends. Sessions are scheduled around your child’s term - most families finish in 6-9 months, with no deadline and no penalty for pausing over exams. Every session is below, in order - and the capstone is what tells you which specialisation to choose next.

A graded quiz follows each of the seven teaching units. You find out whether each one landed before the next one starts - not in week twelve, when it’s too late to do anything about it.

The first class is a full free hour, one-on-one with a mentor - a real lesson, not a sales call.

The AI Mastermind path

Start With the Fundamentals. Then Follow Their Passion.

AI Mastermind is a single 25-session course - the same eight units and the same capstone for every student. What changes is the altitude: a Grade 7 Builder and a Grade 12 Engineer reach the same ideas by very different routes, so neither is bored and neither is lost.

TIER 1

Grades 7–9

The Builders - Logic & ApplicationEvery concept is explained through everyday examples - Netflix, Snapchat, Siri - in plain language, building up to a hands-on AI research paper.
TIER 2

Grades 10–12

The Engineers - Rigour & first principlesThe same 25-session curriculum and research paper, with technical vocabulary and more rigorous framing throughout.

After the Foundation

The capstone shows you where they go next.

Specialised tracks build on AI Mastermind for students who want to go further - the capstone, and the mentor who saw it, tell you which one fits before you commit to anything.

Fees

One Mentor. One Course. One Simple Fee.

There’s no surcharge for a more experienced mentor, because there’s no less-experienced one to discount. Every child on AI Mastermind is drawn from the same roster - the programme only works if that stays true.

One flat fee for the whole course - no subscription, no per-session billing. If your child later moves on to a specialised track, you decide then, with a graded quiz record and a defended paper already in front of you.

Before you book

What parents ask us about the mentors.

Will my child get the same mentor every session?
Yes. One named mentor, matched before the module begins and kept for all 25 hours. You’ll know their name, institution, degree and year before session one. If the fit is wrong, email us and we reassign - you don’t have to justify it, and there’s no charge.
Does my child need to know how to code?
No. AI Mastermind is the Foundation, and it assumes nothing - most children arrive never having written a line of code, and the course is built for exactly that. Coding is introduced gently and explained from zero, at the depth that suits your child’s grade.
My child already uses ChatGPT constantly. Is this redundant?
That’s usually the strongest reason to start. Fluent use and understanding are different things, and the gap doesn’t show up until someone asks a question the tool can’t answer for them - which is what the per-topic quizzes surface early. If the course turns out to be too easy for your child, the mentor will tell you and we’ll adjust the tier.
What time do sessions run from the US?
Your time zone, not ours. Most US families run weekday evenings or weekend mornings. You pick a regular slot with your mentor before the course starts and it holds - but the 25 sessions are scheduled around your child’s term, so there’s no deadline and no penalty for pausing over exams or a busy season. Each mentor’s available US windows are listed on their record above.
Grade 7 feels early. Is it?
It’s the same outcome taught differently. A Tier 1 Builder learns what a neural network does through logic and hands-on building; a Tier 2 Engineer derives it from first principles. What doesn’t change is that a graduate engineer is the one sitting with them. If your child isn’t ready, we’ll say so on the call - we’d rather lose the course than take it.
What does my child actually have at the end?
A built project, an original technical paper in their own words, a graded record across seven unit quizzes, and a recording of them defending the paper live. Those are things an admissions officer or a teacher can evaluate. A completion certificate isn’t, which is why we don’t issue one.
Can I watch a session?
Any of them, without asking first. Sessions can be recorded on request, and parents are explicitly invited to the Hour 25 capstone defence.
