Student Feedback
The course effectively connects financial concepts to real-life scenarios through interactive challenges and investment simulations, demonstrating how small financial decisions can grow into significant ones
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.
This course has really sparked my interest in learning statistics and analysing data, based on the data I have. Now I don't just believe whatever anyone says and understand the facts instead. This was a very interesting course.
An interesting thing I learned in this course is how to modify a story. I enjoyed that the course gives personalized attention to each member and encourages them to build a story. Here they focus on the deep dive to a thing which we don’t get a chance to do in school.
Vrishaan attended the gifted world classes recently on demos for Masterclasses on "Data Literacy" and "Storytelling". It was so effective that after the masterclass, he sat down to write a fictional narrative of a plane's on-air trouble and successful crash landing.
The course was truly exceptional and kept me fully engaged throughout. The support I received from my mentor and the teaching assistants was outstanding. The hands-on experiments were not only educational but also incredibly enjoyable. Additional insights from Dhanya Ma'am added even more value to the entire experience. I can't emphasize enough how wonderful the course was!

After you confirm your track, we will be sharing with you a link to schedule your regular mentor calls.
You will be able to reschedule your calls up to a day before they happen on the same link.
As a member of The Learning Forge, any Gifted World courses you take after you finish your eligible free courses will be discounted. We will share a specific discount code for you for that if needed. The discount may vary depending on the course and what we can offer at that time.
The Learning Forge is NOT a tuition service aimed at preparation for exams. However we aim to ensure students have a strong foundational understanding of what they are learning and have a good level of exposure to various kinds of domains and mentors. Mentors will share updates at key points with parents on what happens in the calls with students based on our framework for talent development.
Yes, absolutely! The Gifted World mentor network is both wide and multidisciplinary. We will be able to find an appropriate mentor for almost any area of interest. If you have any specific questions about this, feel free to book a free call with us on the link above or write to us at janani@giftedworld.org to enquire.
No specialised preparation is needed before starting. We love to work with children who are curious and willing to learn. If you find particular fields of study challenging, and others really easy, we will try to set you up on a learning path that engages and grows your strengths, while ensuring you reach required levels of competence and satisfaction in areas that you are finding difficult.
We are happy to write letters of recommendations for students in the Learning Forge as needed. We strongly believe that every learner has a space that they can excel in. It matters that they identify their interests, build the appropriate skills, nurture curiosity, and find peer groups and mentors. The Learning Forge is designed to achieve all of these things using the resources of Gifted World and our partner organisations. The course is NOT a tuition service aimed at preparation for exams. These courses are also NOT a substitute for school work.
Any students aged between 9 and 18 years of age.
The Learning Forge is an entirely individualized program. You are welcome to find the pace that works best for you along with your mentor. If you decide you would like to take a lot more courses in the summer and fewer in busy school months, that’s perfectly fine. If you feel like you would like to get more advice on a personal project and would like to meet with your mentor twice in the same month, but not the next one, as long as the mentor is available, that is also fine. We are happy to see what works best for you.
