Where Heart Meets Education: How Trayee Sinha is Rebuilding Trust in the Learning Ecosystem

In a world where academic achievement often overshadows emotional growth, Trayee Sinha is quietly rehumanising the way we approach education. As the founder of Prayaas, a Chennai-based educational coaching and advisory initiative, she is helping schools, students, and families find clarity in the chaos, and meaning beyond metrics.

Her mission is simple yet radical: to bring empathy, structure, and purpose back to the heart of learning.

Turning Compassion into a Career

Trayee’s journey began not with strategy, but with sensitivity. Years of observing the silent stress in students, the burnout in teachers, and the confusion among parents revealed a sobering truth: the system meant to empower children was, in many cases, disempowering them.

“I started Prayaas because I noticed the gaps no one was discussing — the emotional disconnect, the lack of individualised guidance.”

Through Prayaas, she offers an ecosystem approach—coaching school leaders, facilitating educator workshops, conducting psychometric and learning assessments, and working one-on-one with families. Every solution is grounded in educational psychology and tailored to the child’s emotional and cognitive blueprint.

Beyond Consulting: Building Relationships, Not Reports

In a market saturated with coaching centres and quick-fix counsellors, Trayee’s work stands apart for its depth and deliberate pace. There are no off-the-shelf answers at Prayaas. Whether supporting a struggling student or guiding a school through systemic transformation, her role is that of a coach, confidante, and catalyst.

“We don’t think that consulting is enough. We walk with our clients — until they celebrate their own success.”

That philosophy has created not just satisfied clients, but deep, trusting relationships—and visible results. Families leave with newfound confidence. School leaders feel supported, not judged. And students, for once, feel truly seen.

Transformations That Start from Within

The impact of her work goes far beyond grades or goals. Clients describe their experience with Trayee as “life-changing,” “reassuring,” and “profound.” Her sessions help them unearth confidence, navigate conflict, and find direction—both professionally and personally.

One client, Dr. Sanghamitra Banerjee, shares:“Trayee helped me recognize my strengths, balance logic and creativity, and gain confidence I didn’t know I had.”

It’s this rare fusion of empathy and structure that makes her methodology not just effective, but lasting.

Advice for Women Entrepreneurs: Purpose Over Popularity

For women entering the world of educational entrepreneurship, Trayee offers this grounded wisdom:

• Nurture your venture like you would a child.

• Expect slow growth—but deep impact.

• Your work’s value isn’t measured by size, but by sincerity.

“Your work has value, even if it doesn’t look like everyone else’s. Stay rooted in your purpose.”

Reimagining Education as a Healing Space

Through Prayaas, Trayee Sinha is doing more than advising—she’s rebuilding trust in education. One family, one student, one school at a time. Her work reminds us that the best guidance doesn’t always come from the loudest voices, but from the calmest ones—the ones that truly listen.

Because sometimes, all a child—or parent—needs is someone who understands the heart behind the homework.
