Our impact is real, tangible, and life-changing. Check out these stories from the students and teachers we serve.
“Thank you for bringing the Learning Undefeated STEM programs to the Maryland School for the Blind! Your willingness to work with our students and their unique learning styles made a positive impact on all and across all grades. The flexibility and patience of your team was particularly appreciated”
Dorothy Hughes,
Library Media Specialist,
Maryland School for the Blind
“Igniting interest in STEM and maritime jobs across the Coastal Bend, our PORT-Able Learning Lab is reinforcing our efforts at the Port of Corpus Christi to cultivate the workforce of the future.”
Rosaura Bailey,
Director of Community Relations for the Port of Corpus Christi
“Our new workshop is more than a production space— it’s a playground for innovation. Here, we prototype cutting-edge designs, test new ideas, and bring immersive learning experiences to life before hitting the road.”
Jennifer Colvin,
Chief Innovation Officer, Learning Undefeated
“The Emerging Leaders in Biotechnology program gave me essential laboratory skills and teamwork experience, from precise gene editing techniques to the importance of safety in biohazard environments. These skills, coupled with the program’s emphasis on collaboration and cultural diversity, have significantly prepared me for a future in healthcare, where attention to detail and effective teamwork are crucial.”
Ines Santamaria-Sanchez,
San Antonio, TX, 12th grade

Teacher at Emerson Elementary School, Texas
‘I was a student at Watkins Mill High School when the mobile lab came to my school, and my experience on the lab is what caused me to choose a major in a STEM field. Your program really is changing lives!”

We believe that equitable access to STEM education is an essential building block to bridging the digital divide and empowering young people to see themselves in the tech field, as innovators, creators and problem-solvers.”
The program was incredible and exactly what I needed to take my biotech skills and knowledge to the next level. It was a fantastic opportunity to learn from the best and grow both professionally and personally.”’
The lab experience was just phenomenal for my students. The population that I teach does not have as much opportunity to get hands-on experiences with wet labs in middle school. I think that this experience really peaked interest in science.”
The mobile STEM lab is an awesome engaging experience for students of all ages. The mobile team instructors create a love for science by getting students involved in ever aspect of STEM. One of my eighth grade students said, ‘I could really buy a lot of tools to create a rocket with $500’ … another student asked if we could visit the mobile lab on a weekly basis. LOVE IT!”
I’m writing to sincerely thank you for building the foundation of my science education. My interest in science truly took off when you introduced me to the lab setting. I had the chance to learn laboratory techniques, explore different academic pathways, and see how I could continue expanding my knowledge in the future. I will always be grateful for the belief you had in me and the care you showed. The values you instilled in me—through your patience and passion—have helped shape who I am today, both as a person and as a scholar.
I was worried my 5th grade bilingual class wouldn’t be able to enjoy the activity due to the language barrier, BUT I WAS WRONG, AND I AM SO HAPPY I WAS. My proudest moment was one of my female students, telling me “I really liked that, I think I want to be an engineer!”
Thank you for being amazing during this program and being of great help. I had this love and hate relationship with labs and you strengthened my love for it. I am very confident taking AP Bio this year and participating in labs. You have made a big difference in my life”
The AR sandbox is so much better than having the students try and learn from a worksheet! I love this thing. If they had just learned this from a paper, they would never get it. With the sandbox, they get it 10 times faster.
This experience was AMAZING! You two are AMAZING! Keep up the great work inspiring, motivating, educating, school staff and students. This not only was AMAZING for our students, but it was OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZING Professional Development for myself and our staff!! Last year we were trying to put together a STEM Lab at Travis Elementary and made a great start, but now I know and the staff knows exactly how everything works!! THANK YOU!!”
TXSTEM lab was amazing! In cooperative groups, our students were able to use money, budgeting, science, and engineering design to solve a problem. So many TEKS built into one lab. A win for teacher PD too. The best 45-minute teacher observation I’ve experienced. Already implemented money and budgeting into my labs. Thank you for this opportunity.”
The question was: how can we deliver hands-on research experience for our students? Learning Undefeated had the answer…. To have the students conduct science research [at home] despite the coronavirus limitations, it really sets them along the path of being not just college and career ready, but college and career STEM ready.”
Learning Undefeated is constantly developing and delivering creative STEM education programs for students. They are quick to market with new ideas, piloting and adapting them in the same ways that R&D researchers would do with a new vaccine. This team is truly transforming how students learn and how they see themselves having STEM careers.”
We are super excited to have these kits. They are perfect, nice little convenient packages that are very closely related to our curriculum, which is awesome. Our teachers don’t have to add more to what they are already responsible for, but this really does support the curriculum that we have.”
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for providing the biology kits to students at DuVal, Flowers, Oxon Hill and Roosevelt. What a game changer!! This addition will enhance our distance learning and provide the students with experiences that they cannot get from a computer.”
When high school women get to make that connection with college women, they get to see a little snippet of themselves in the future … Since there are already so many obstacles for women in STEM already, I love that we are united together and all helping each other overcome those obstacles.”
