Why Gifted World?

As a parent or educator of a child with advanced talents, these may be familiar challenges

01.

Feeling Overlooked

Advanced Learners have Unique Needs that aren't always appreciated

02.

Struggling with misunderstanding

Low awareness of giftedness leading to misunderstood behaviour

03.

Finding
Communities

Hard to find a supportive community that understands a gifted parent's journey

04.

Emotional &
Social issues

Lack of challenge, support and peer group leads to socio-emotional difficulty

05.

Concern about
wasted potential

Early Identification and support crucial to reach their full potential

When identified and supported, talented students show more motivation and develop confidence to work towards their goals. Gifted World aims to support parents, educators and schools in this journey.

Johns Hopkins University. ATS gold scholar and alumnus of Gifted Summer Program 2016

I'm currently getting my bachelors in Neuroscience, and my first ever exposure to the field was through the ASSET Summer Program. My experience at this Program was an incredible learning and growth opportunity for me, both personally and academically. It inspired my interest in neuroscience and medicine, and I am so thankful for the opportunity it gave me!

Inventure Academy, Bengaluru, India

ATS Gold Scholar, Alumnus of Gifted Summer Program, 2022

When I first got my ATS results, I vividly remember my grandmother being there and she was very supportive of it. Although I hadn't thought of the test results too much before that because I didn't want to be disappointed when I got them, I realised they were quite good because I got gold scholar and I was very proud of myself. Seeing the opportunities it brought were very excited as well.

ATS Gold Scholar,  Alumnus of Gifted Winter Program, 2022

 About the Gifted Residential Program - We learn about things we don't do at school. At school, we are given sums, we do it. Here we think about how this happened, when it happened and why it happened... It's not just by definition and memorizing, but more what we think and hearing what others have to say.
