Even after successfully serving in the Govt. controlled schools for 35 long years and achieving recognition for this sincere work and devotion, somewhere deep down there was a feeling in incompleteness, a sense of dissatisfaction of not being able to realize his dreams in totality. In spite of his earnest effort while serving in such schools, he failed to translate into practice his ideas for making a “Complete Man”, as is conceived by all eminent educational philosophers.
It was this unquenchable thirst to achieve academic excellence and the urge to impart multifaceted development of a child that propelled Mr. A.K. Som to establish an educational institution after his retirement. When after long years of service, people generally tend to opt for a relaxed, tension free retired life, Mr. A.K. Som instead decided to take up fresh challenges. It was his zeal and enthusiasm to shape young minds that motivated him to venture out and sow the seeds of an institution of repute. Thus, was established St. Vivekananda English Academy, Guwahati, where children are initiated and guided in the path of superior academic pursuit. SVEA Guwahati offers a challenging and inspiring educational programme and a positive nurturing environment where children flourish and achieve wholesome development.
