UK tool boosts English learning in India through stories
Orissa POST
|July 20, 2025
An innovative English learning tool devised by a UK-based Indian-origin edtech entrepreneur using classic stories is now being used by children in India to help enhance literacy outcomes and bridge gaps in speech.
Power Vocabulary, conceptualised by Champs Learning founder Nishikant Kothikar, was originally designed for the England school curriculum but has proved very effective in India, where English proficiency is seen as vital for academic success and competitive exams.
“The majority of people use the same 500 words, so our children tend to follow what they hear. The only way to expand your vocabulary is by reading. The more you read, the wider the scope, the better your language skills become,” said Kothikar.
