Empowering Every Child to Learn at Their Own Pace at Helikx Open School Education is most effective when it recognises that every child learns differently. In a diverse learning environment like India, especially in Tamil Nadu, many students face academic challenges not because of a lack of intelligence, but due to learning gaps, learning difficulties, or the pressure of a rigid schooling system. Remedial Teaching Workshops play a vital role in addressing these challenges by

A New Path Through Alternative Education and Open Schooling in Salem In today’s fast-changing world, academic knowledge alone is not enough. Children need life skills—the abilities that help them understand themselves, manage emotions, communicate effectively, make decisions, and live independently. This need becomes even more critical for students with learning disabilities, especially those facing spelling difficulties, language-based learning disability, dyslexia, and spec

For many years, intelligence was measured only by marks, grades, and certificates. Society taught us that a high IQ would automatically lead to success, respect, and happiness. As an educator, trainer, and lifelong learner, I once believed this too. But my years of working with students, parents, teachers, and professionals have taught me a powerful truth: intellectual intelligence alone is not enough. What truly shapes our decisions, relationships, leadership abilities, and

Every child deserves a home that nurtures curiosity, supports education, and gives them the confidence to explore the world. A learning-friendly home environment is not just a space filled with books or study desks—it is a mindset, a family culture, and a lifestyle choice. As schools evolve and personalised learning options like alternative schools, home-based learning, and inclusive learning programs grow, the role of the home environment becomes even more significant. At He

When learning challenges are detected early, students receive timely interventions that help them learn better, build confidence, and avoid long-term academic setbacks. For teachers, understanding how to identify LD early is not only valuable—it is essential. In this blog, we will explore how teachers can identify learning dis

As an MBA student and a UPSC aspirant, I am very much interested in sustainable organizational design and specialized service delivery. I've often studied how institutions balance purpose and performance, aligning with policies, but sometimes, the lessons that stay with you don’t come from case studies or numbers – they come from places built on compassion. Recently, I had the opportunity to visit Helikx Open School and Learning Centre in Salem, Tamil Nadu  – and it turned ou

Lessons Beyond Volunteering “Some days don’t just pass — they stay within you, quietly reminding you what humanity looks like when kindness becomes a classroom.” When I first walked into Helix Open School that morning, I didn’t feel like a volunteer arriving to “help.”I came as Sneha, a psychology student, an MBA learner, and most importantly, a seeker of stories as a passionate writer. I wanted to understand what education might look like when it grows out of empathy rather

A Lesson Beyond Classrooms As an observer that day, my role was simple: observe, learn, and lend a hand where I could. Yet what I took away from those few hours was something far greater - a quiet revelation about learning, life, and what true education can look like when it’s built on heart, dignity, and order. Hello, this is Sneha. I'm excited to share about an interesting Organizational Behaviour method in this blog… spoiler - it's Japanese. So, 5S’s, though rooted in work

In today’s world, leadership is not just about managing people — it’s about inspiring change, fostering trust, and influencing positive transformation. True leadership begins not in boardrooms or classrooms, but within one’s own mind. At Helikx Open School, we believe that leadership is a journey of self-discovery, emotional growth, and continuous learning. In this article, we explore how transforming mindsets lays the foundation for genuine leadership and how schools can nur

Every child has a unique way of understanding, processing, and applying knowledge. Some children grasp concepts quickly, while others may take more time or need different methods to learn effectively. This diversity in learning styles is natural — and recognizing it is the first step toward helping children reach their full potential. At Helikx Open School , Tamil Nadu’s leading center for learning disability assessment  and individualized education, we believe that every chi

Leadership is not merely about authority or status — it is a reflection of one’s inner mindset and understanding of human nature. Through years of observation and reflection, I’ve found that effective leadership begins with psychological clarity. It is the harmony between thought, emotion, and action that allows a leader to guide others with wisdom and empathy. At its core, leadership is an emotional and cognitive process. The psychology of leadership reveals that people foll

Every child’s learning journey is unique — filled with curiosity, questions, and constant exploration. As parents, we play the most crucial role in shaping this journey. The environment we create at home, the values we model, and the encouragement we offer become the foundation for our child’s emotional well-being and academic success. At Helikx Open School , we believe that education doesn’t start in the classroom; it begins at home, in the presence of positive parenting. Le
