Some build the place where teaching happens. A few do both, then hand children the mic.
Pavan RC · Communication Catalyst
Coaching children, teachers and adults to find their voice, and use it.
Twenty years, one idea: learning should move.
Over seven years, Achieve Academy drew children from more than 60 schools across South Bangalore to learn maths on their feet.
Building on the school his father, Mr. Chandrashekar, founded, Pavan reimagined it into a school of teacher-owned studios.
A+ for life, not just grades: communication, confidence and character for children.
Though, as he'll tell you, his real ambition is to remove the X.
Coaching children through A+ Mastery, and adults through workshops and keynotes.
The belief
Learning that movesHe wasn't content to just teach maths. He wanted children to feel it, move through it, play with it. That belief became Achieve Academy in 2005, and children from more than 60 schools came to learn from the man they called the kinesthetic mathemagician.
The same idea grew into Achieve School of Education, India's only Studio School, where children don't sit in one classroom all day but move every hour between studios, each designed and owned by its teacher. Pavan serves as a Trustee of the Achieve Educational Trust.
Then he noticed something every parent knows: the brightest children often go silent the moment someone is watching. So he built a stage. Through Straight A+ he now takes children from their first mic moment to a published book, and coaches teachers, entrepreneurs and leaders in the communication that sets people up for life.
He holds a Master's in Special Education and Inclusion from the University of Northampton, is a certified Master Practitioner of NLP, and has spent over two decades studying how people communicate.
