Our Story
How did we started?
In 2008, the inception of IWICA took place, driven by the lack of child-oriented activities in Bangkok. This served as the catalyst to embark on a journey towards fostering holistic education for children, emphasizing not only cognitive development but also the cultivation of skills and character. The programs I have personally crafted encompass Chess, MatheMagic, Robotics, and Fusion Dance.
The establishment of IWICA Chess School, the first accredited school in Asia by both the Ministry of Education and World Chess Federation, stands as my significant accomplishment. Our school and the Managing Director of IWICA is affiliated and member of various organizations, including the Thailand Chess Association, Bangladesh National Sports Council, All India Chess Federation, Indo Thai Chamber of Commerce, Indian Associations Of Thailand, and several others.
The CORE of IWICA
Our IWICA programs aim to cultivate life skills, mental abilities, social skills, creativity, and character building through a blend of enjoyable activities.
IWICA Education Services offers a wide range of programs that are meticulously developed and designed by our team of experts. These programs are specifically tailored to enhance the mental, social, and skills development of children. Additionally, we have established partnerships with various educational institutions to provide unique programs from around the world that are not currently available in Thailand.
Our program is thoughtfully designed to ensure that instructors consistently challenge students with innovative techniques and concepts. Moreover, our instructors actively demonstrate and encourage the acquisition of valuable life skills through our specially crafted curriculum for each course.
These programs have been implemented as In-School and after-School Programs in Thailand, India, and Bangladesh, in addition to our centers.

“Following my passion for learning, I delved into the field of Vedic mathematics after my experience with chess. This ancient form of mathematics, which dates back over 2500 years, is considered the mother of modern mathematics and inspired the creation of the MatheMagic Program. My journey of research and development continues as I strive to create programs that benefit both children and the community. Education is an endless ocean of knowledge, and the more I explore, the more I realize there is still so much to learn and share.” – Binita Shah
