Service Description

Introduction to Welding: 5‑Week Homeschool Semester Ages 12–17 Five Fridays • 10 AM to 1 PM Tuition: $599 per student This 5‑week semester gives homeschool students a powerful, hands‑on introduction to welding and metal fabrication. Designed for beginners and returning students alike, this course blends foundational instruction with real workshop experience. Students explore welding fundamentals, learn essential safety practices, and gain confidence using professional metalworking equipment. Throughout the semester, students receive guided practice with: Angle grinders Oxy‑acetylene torches Plasma cutters Belt grinders MIG welding equipment Additional fabrication tools and shop technology Each student completes multiple small welded projects while developing cutting, fitting, fabrication, and finishing skills. Weekly sessions allow students to build knowledge steadily, reinforce techniques through repeated practice, and enjoy fresh learning opportunities with every class. No prior experience is required. Curiosity, focus, and a willingness to learn are all that's needed.
