Our Story:
How It Began
Nathaniel Tok (Below) and Siddarth Batchu (Right) found an interesting trend about each of their most successful peers: all had participated in a multitude of competitions since elementary school. In such early practice, the students became Future Scholars, students armed with critical thinking abilities and a competitive spirit. They were ready for academic excellence. Nathaniel and Siddarth strove to make such opportunities accessible to all students in their community; thus, the Future Scholar Foundation was created.
Nathaniel and Siddarth decided to focus on two core subjects: English at first, and then Math. Fun and unique monthly prompts were developed for their English competitions, and unique Math questions that pushed participants to think outside the box were written. They aspire to create a vibrant community of young scholars, united by their hunger for knowledge and their determination to leave a lasting legacy on the world through impactful self expression skills facilitated by their English and Math competitions.
