How Virtual Robotics Classes for Kids Work

Virtual robotics classes at Plum Crazy Robotics are live, private 1-on-1 video sessions with the same instructor and curriculum used in our Marlboro, NJ lab. Real electronics and components — geared toward their discussed learning path. Because every session is hands-on, students build real circuits, write real code, and troubleshoot real projects, with their instructor watching and guiding every step through the camera.

01

Book a Call

First, we discuss your child’s experience level, goals, and whether virtual is the right fit. Not every student thrives in a virtual setting — because 1-on-1 remote instruction requires sustained focus, it’s important to make sure it’s a good match.

02

Sign Up for Your Class Path

Next, choose the right class for your student. We’ll guide you through our phased curriculum and then determine the best starting point based on your child’s age, experience, and interests.

03

Kit Ships to You

After enrollment, we decide which electronics and components your child needs — including Arduino boards, Raspberry Pi, ESP32, sensors, motors, breadboards, wires, and tools. Furthermore, needs evolve as the student progresses through the curriculum.

04

Learn Live

Finally, your child begins private video sessions with their instructor. Together, they build real circuits, write real code, and debug real projects — all in real time with one-on-one guidance. In other words, same curriculum, same rigor, same results.

What Your Child Learns in Online Robotics Classes

Virtual students follow the same phased curriculum as our in-person classes. Specifically, they progress through real programming, electronics fundamentals, circuit design, motor control, sensor integration, and hands-on building — creating working projects at every stage. This includes Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP32, Python, Scratch, Minecraft coding, and more. Additionally, the same Foundation → Engineer → Innovator → Architect progression applies. As with in-person, advancement is earned through demonstrated skill, just like in our Marlboro lab.

The key difference is delivery — everything happens through a live video session with your child’s instructor watching their hands, their screen, and their circuit in real time. For example, students learn breadboard wiring, electronics, LED circuits, motor control, sensor reading, and coding. Then, as they advance, the curriculum grows to include more complex builds, new platforms, and deeper programming concepts.

What You Need for Virtual Robotics Classes

Before your first session, virtual classes require some basic equipment at home. In particular, please make sure you have the following:

💻
Computer

Laptop or desktop — NO tablets

📷
USB Camera

Webcam pointed at workspace

📶
Stable Internet

Reliable connection for video

🔧
Electronics Kit

Required Equipment as discussed before first class

Who Are Virtual Robotics Classes For?

🌍 Out-of-State Families

Students anywhere in the country can learn real robotics from Plum Crazy Robotics — no NJ address required.

🚗 Too Far to Travel

Families outside our Marlboro area who want the same hands-on STEM experience without the commute.

🏠 Homeschool Families

A structured, instructor-led STEM curriculum that fits into your homeschool schedule.

📅 Schedule Conflicts

Students who can’t make our in-person class times but still want real robotics instruction.

➕ Extra Practice

Current in-person students who want additional 1-on-1 sessions to accelerate their learning.

🎯 Focused Learners

Students who thrive with undivided instructor attention and a distraction-free home environment.

Virtual vs. In-Person — What’s Included

Virtual classes deliver the same core curriculum and instructor quality as in-person. However, some elements of the in-person experience can’t be replicated remotely. As a result, here’s what to expect:

✅ Included in Virtual

  • Live 1-on-1 instruction
  • Same phased curriculum
  • Real electronics and components shipped
  • Real code — Python, C/C++, Scratch
  • Circuit building & breadboarding
  • Motor control & sensor projects
  • Same instructor, same standards
  • Earned advancement through skill

❌ In-Person Only

  • Access to all in-lab tools and equipment
  • Friday Tech Night
  • Combat Robotics League

This is exactly why our in-person program exists — because some things simply can’t be shipped. Therefore, if you’re close enough to come to Marlboro, in-person classes offer the full experience. On the other hand, virtual is ideal for families who want real STEM instruction but can’t be here in person.

Your Kit Ships Before Your First Class

Every virtual student uses real electronics and components geared toward your child’s discussed learning path.

Virtual classes require a one-time registration fee plus monthly tuition. Call (732) 359-4299 for pricing details.

Virtual Robotics Classes for Kids — Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment do I need for virtual classes?
You’ll need a laptop or desktop computer (no tablets), a USB webcam pointed at your child’s workspace, and a stable internet connection. In addition, your required equipment as discussed before the first session — contents are geared toward your child’s discussed learning path.
What does my child need?
The needed items are determined by the lessons and learning path discussed during your initial call. Specifically, it includes real electronics and components — microcontrollers, sensors, motors, breadboards, wires, and tools. As students progress, they may require additional components for more advanced projects.
Is the virtual curriculum the same as in-person?
Virtual students follow the same phased progression and learn the same core skills — Arduino programming, circuit design, coding, and electronics. However, certain hands-on elements like soldering, the SCORBOT robotic arm, combat arena, and lab tools like oscilloscopes and 3D printers are only available in person. In short, virtual covers the full foundation — while in-person adds the advanced lab experience.

More Questions About Virtual Robotics Classes

Can my child switch from virtual to in-person?
Yes. A virtual student would finish out their current month, and then transition to in-person classes starting the following month if it makes sense for their schedule and location. Simply call us to discuss the transition.
What ages are virtual classes for?
Because virtual 1-on-1 instruction requires sustained focus and the ability to follow directions through a camera, it’s not the right fit for every student. Consequently, the best way to find out is to book a call so we can discuss whether virtual is a good match for your child.
Is virtual robotics as effective as in-person?
For the core curriculum — Arduino programming, electronics, circuit building, and coding — yes. In fact, the 1-on-1 format actually gives students more dedicated instructor time than a group class. However, in-person offers access to advanced lab tools and the social experience of working alongside other students. Ultimately, both paths build real skills. Call us and we’ll help you decide which is best for your child.

Why Virtual Robotics Classes from Plum Crazy Robotics?

If you’re searching for virtual robotics classes for kids, online STEM classes, online Arduino classes for kids, or online coding classes for kids — you’ve probably noticed that most programs are screen-only. In most cases, students just drag and drop code blocks or watch pre-recorded videos. There’s no real hardware, no real circuits, and no real engineering involved. As a result, kids never actually build anything with their hands. Virtual robotics classes for kids in NJ from Plum Crazy Robotics are nothing like that.

Plum Crazy Robotics is different.
