Shenba Chockalingam — CEO & Founder
Prepaze grew out of a lifelong passion for learning. What began as tutoring a family friend evolved into a multifaceted educational business: our founder opened the original Dublin, CA center and went on to build the Prepaze learning platform and Ace Academic Publishing. Through it all, she has prioritized both academic excellence and students’ emotional well-being — because a confident, happy learner is a successful one.
Our journey
A small group of academic coaches set out to create a world of personalized education that promoted both affordability and quality.
We opened our first tutoring center in Dublin, CA, working to truly understand each student's needs in one-on-one and small-group settings.
We built Unik, our cloud-based learning management platform, to deliver personalized teaching across each student's individual spectrum.
We realigned our vision and mission after the pandemic — focused on helping every student overcome their fears with holistic, whole-child support.
An open learning environment where students enjoy learning and gain the confidence and skills to excel at school.
Every child is unique. And so must be their learning path.
We provide flexible, in-person tutoring that fosters individual excellence through programs tailored to each student.
What we value
Passionate & motivated
We hire tutors who share our vision and love the subjects they teach — trained to keep every classroom warm, welcoming, and encouraging.
Everyone is unique
No two learners are the same, so no two learning paths should be either. We celebrate what makes each student different.
Exclusively inclusive
Every child belongs here. We build an open, judgment-free space where students feel safe to try, stumble, and grow.
What sets us apart
A few things you won’t find at every learning institute:
School-aligned or advanced — families choose the track that fits their child's goals.
Every plan is tailored to a student's real gaps and strengths, not a generic syllabus.
Learning doesn't stop at the classroom door — practice, feedback, and guidance continue on Unik.
We reward effort and curiosity, building a mindset that treats mistakes as part of learning.
Beyond academics, we nurture confidence, focus, and the soft skills that carry into real life.
What our students walk away with
Every program, across every subject, is built to deliver:
