About Cogitare

We are educators and learners at heart.

We endeavor to ignite the minds of children and make them eager to learn. Help them go beyond exam scores and make them “learners for life“.We trust in the democratization of instruction to guarantee that each student gets a chance to learn. Through our tech-driven learning programs, we are focused on enabling students in the most far-off geologies and underserved networks.​

Our motto is to make learning meaningful, fun and engaging. Cogitare means ‘to think’ in Latin. We believe that the most important skill children need to succeed at various aspects in their life is the ability to:

THINK, INQUIRE, LEARN and TRANSFORM.

About Cogitare Philosophy

Every child learns differently and educators should provide opportunities to learn in multiple ways.

Competency based learning and assessment aided by technology will help the learner achieve their objectives with ease.

Achieving small learning goals on a daily basis is central to academic excellence.

About Cogitare Progress

We are still young, but growing. What started off as an experiment with two children has now grown into teaching over 300 students. In the six years of our teaching journey we have understood the nuances and the process of learning and have identified what methodologies will suit students.

Having over 30+  years of combined IT experience between the founders, we are leveraging technology to aid in the learning process.

Our goal is to develop and perfect a competency based learning process that can be adopted by  educational institutions.
