Explorers: character lessons for ages 6–12
Explorers is Mentor’s 12-week course for children aged 6 to 12. Each 15-minute lesson tells a short story starring the child’s own family and friends, asks what they would do, and ends with a small real-life mission. It covers honesty, kindness, sharing, patience, courage and responsibility.

Five pillars
Questions parents ask
What ages is Mentor for?
Ages 6 to 18, in two tracks: Explorers for ages 6–12 and Navigators for ages 13–18.
How long is the course?
12 weeks, one lesson a week. Explorers sessions take about 15 minutes and Navigators sessions about 25 minutes.
How does the AI tutor work?
The student answers by voice or by tapping. The browser turns speech into text, the student approves it, and Claude, an AI model made by Anthropic, reads the answer and writes a personal reply. Tapped answers don’t use AI.
Is Mentor safe for children?
Real people only appear in a kind or neutral light, and private family details are never repeated back. Safety words pause the lesson and alert a parent, three off-topic or unkind answers end the session, and parents can read every transcript.
