-- Samita Bhattacharya, Founder and Managing Director of Frankly Speaking Tuition, was presented with the “Visionaries Award” at the Education 2.0 Conference, held at the InterContinental DFC, Dubai, from December 8–10, 2025. The award celebrates forward-thinking education leaders who demonstrate innovation, influence, and a transformative vision for learning in a global context.
Samita Bhattacharya is a passionate English educator known for her compelling presence and exceptional speaking skills, which make literature vivid, engaging, and relevant. With over fifteen years of international teaching experience across IGCSE, IBDP, Edexcel, Cambridge A & AS Levels, AQA GCSE, and Singapore (General Paper), she blends academic rigour with inspiring dialogue. As an examiner of IBDP curriculum and University of Calcutta alumna, Samita empowers students to think critically, speak confidently, and connect texts to the real world.
Also, as a Founder of Frankly Speaking Tuition, she creates a learning environment where curiosity thrives, discussion is fearless, and students emerge as articulate, thoughtful, and self-assured learners ready to engage with the world.
Commenting on the recognition, Samita said, “I believe this award recognises my commitment to transforming the way students engage with literature. I believe this award recognises my commitment to transforming the way students engage with literature. Over the past eleven years, my work across multiple international curricula—and more recently through my virtual education centre, Frankly Speaking Tuition—has centred on one core belief: that literature should be experienced, not merely analysed. My teaching philosophy emphasises nuanced understanding, intertextual connection, and the idea that meaning is co-constructed rather than dictated. I think what ultimately led to this recognition is the impact this approach has had on students’ confidence, critical thinking, and global awareness. It affirms that personalised, transformative learning truly matters.
“The conference has been incredibly energising. It has brought together innovators, educators, and thought leaders who are all rethinking what learning can look like. The sessions have been insightful, and the conversations enriching. What I value most is the shared commitment to pushing beyond traditional models and exploring new pedagogies that centre student experience and global citizenship. It’s been both humbling and inspiring to be part of this collective vision for the future of education.”
Her recognition at the education event highlights her visionary approach to education and her commitment to shaping learning experiences that inspire confidence, clarity of thought, and lifelong engagement with ideas.
