About School of Vedic Maths

School of Vedic Maths is an Institution that aims at eradicating the fear of Maths from the minds of students. The school facilitates 'discovery' of new techniques in calculations and creating the element of 'fun' while doing Maths. The emphasis is not to teach but to make the students learn on their own. When any subject is 'taught' only the left brain develops, but when it is 'discovered' the right brain also develops. It is our endeavor to help enhance both sides of the brain thus bringing out creativity and hidden potentials.

The strong belief that learning Vedic Maths and ancient Indian mathematics improves observation, concentration, creativity and numerical ability, is what drives us to travel across India imparting this priceless knowledge. Our approach to teaching is modern and accessible whereby we facilitate students are encouraged to discover new methods of their own making it more than simply studying.
