The iSTEAM program focuses on hands-on and observable experiments. Instructors teach provided lesson plans related to the basics of Engineering and Technology, Chemistry, Science through Art, and beyond. MoneyBee Education incorporates age-appropriate financial literacy concepts through interactive activities that connect naturally to cooking, STEAM projects, and everyday decision-making, introducing ideas such as earning, saving, spending, goal-setting, and making thoughtful choices.

This is an amazing opportunity to have a job that makes an impact while keeping a flexible schedule and working on days and in locations that work for you.
