It is a quite unique (different from a standard summer camp program) .. Ramsey and Tom adopted a quite interesting approach to help those young kids to open view by adding pieces of theory physics lectures, philosophy/language implication by practice (street interview), hands on cooking ... two weeks of non-standard camp experience.. my daughter got chance to to explore something she would never touch in other program ... definitely recommend it...

As the world becomes more complex and chaotic, children need to be pushed out of their comfort zone. Virtu's Summer Institute does this in an innovative manner - never quite spelling it out to the students, who are gradually and sometimes suddenly pushed to speak in public, play frisbee, assemble sandwiches with blindfolds on etc as a way to stretch their ability to adapt in the moment.

I would absolutely recommend it.
