I really liked this session, everything I learned is new. Day after tomorrow is going to be my science exam, I feel like I will use a lot of the things that I have learned today in my science exams. I am having difficulty learning one of the chapters, so I will try out all the tips I have learned in this masterclass on that chapter. Thank you so much for the opportunity.

I've learned about density and buoyancy in more detail and understood it far better than when I read about it. Sukanya ma'am is different from all the other teachers I've had. I've understood concepts I haven't been able to in the past because of her teaching style. I'd also look forward to attending more courses if she's teaching them because she makes everything so much easier to understand. Thank you so much for teaching us.

I can easily top my class in school. But here, everyone is very intelligent. I felt challenged and that made me interested in the course.

Gifted Online Summer Program - July 2025

Schools are designed to make sure no child is left behind – 
but what about the ones ready to race ahead?

Bright children often crave challenge, deeper conversations, and peers who just get them. But even in excellent classrooms, gifted learners can end up waiting – understimulated, unmotivated, or simply misunderstood.

That’s where we come in.

Our 4-week Online Summer Program (July 7– Aug 2, 2025) is built exclusively for gifted learners—those in the top 2% of their age group. With small-group Learning Quests in Astrophysics, Storytelling, Algebra, GenAI, and Experimental Science, students finally get the intellectual stretch they’ve been yearning for.

Each course sparks curiosity, deep thinking, and joyful discovery – with inspiring mentors and a vibrant peer group from across India and the UAE.

Add to that our Saturday Circles and interactive challenges, and you get more than a summer course. You get a place where gifted minds feel seen, understood, and alive with possibility.

Your child deserves to learn in a place where they truly fit in.

Who we Are

Gifted World is the trusted community for parents and educators of high ability learners.

Parenting or teaching an academically advanced student can be exciting and overwhelming at the same time!
Join a community of people learning to navigate these same waters.

Community Membership

  • Are you a parent or teacher looking to nurture your child’s gifts?
  • Is your child not being challenged or engaged currently?
  • Would you like more opportunities for them to interact with gifted peers, and be inspired to learn?
  • This may be the community for you.

Why Gifted World?

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

Feeling Overlooked

Advanced Learners have Unique Needs that aren't always appreciated.

01.

Struggling with misunderstanding

Low awareness of giftedness leading to misunderstood behaviour

02.

Finding Communities

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

03.

Emotional & Social issues

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

04.

Concern about wasted potential

Early Identification and support crucial to reach their full potential

05.

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.

How can we help?

Meeting different Needs

From community events to individual consultations, courses and more, we support you and your child on their learning journey.

We offer parenting workshops, career exploration guidance, information about talent development (through blog posts and live events), and training and consulting services to schools. Our residential summer programs are a wonderful way to connect with the community.

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.

About the Gifted Residential Program - Wonderful! There are minds from all over the world, in one room and we get to hear different opinions from each beautiful mind. It really changes your world or your perspective about a topic.

Lasya Varma
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.

I like the diversity here- the way different students have been raised is so different...their culture and our culture and their lifestyles. Everything is so diverse here, there are people from all across the globe...so it's interesting to see what they are like

The learning has been very exciting...we used Raspberry pi to build aeroplane trackers.....similar to the ones built by my instructor which are at Purdue airport and Chicago O' Hare report...

Rupasri Chalavadi
Currently in a Bachelor of Science program, in Neuroscience and Computer Science, at 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!
