How can coaching providers create a scalable and personalised learning experience that nurtures cognitive, emotional, and academic growth in students? InnoBest, a pioneering education and coaching organisation based in Singapore, found its answer through HeyHi. By adopting the HeyHi Academy and the HeyHi Personalised Adaptive Learning System (PALS), InnoBest has strengthened its mission to empower students, parents, educators, and school communities with transformative Executive Functions and Competencies (EFCs) coaching. This collaboration highlights the effectiveness of personalised, AI-driven digital learning platforms in advancing national education objectives and enhancing student well-being.
Founded on a vision to nurture future-ready students, InnoBest provides education, coaching, and consultancy services focused on Executive Functions and Competencies (EFCs). These encompass critical 21st-century cognitive skills such as emotional regulation, time management, focus, self-motivation, and metacognition—skills that equip children and youth to meet academic and life challenges with resilience and confidence.
In alignment with Singapore’s national emphasis on competencies-based learning, InnoBest has developed a comprehensive suite of programmes for students, parents, educators, and schools. These include one-on-one coaching for students aged nine and above, parent mentorship, and certified EFC practitioner training. All offerings are evidence-based and designed to foster emotional intelligence, cognitive agility, and social-emotional development.
As demand for its services increased, particularly through multiple K–12 school collaborations, InnoBest identified the need for an educational technology partner capable of digitising programme delivery, ensuring consistency at scale, and preserving a high degree of personalisation.
Executive Function development requires more than passive content delivery. It demands interactive, reflective, and highly personalised learning experiences. In striving to deliver this at scale, InnoBest encountered several key challenges.
First, the scalability of personalised coaching presented a significant hurdle. The team needed to determine how to provide individualised learning journeys to hundreds of students across multiple schools, without compromising coaching depth or student engagement.
Second, the digitisation of complex programmes proved difficult. InnoBest’s executive function modules consist of structured, multi-phase processes—from identifying cognitive gaps to applying behavioural strategies in real-life contexts. These intricate components were not easily adaptable to standard digital learning formats.
Third, maintaining consistency in learning quality became increasingly important as their programmes expanded into more Ministry of Education (MOE) schools. InnoBest needed to ensure that each learner received uniform guidance, feedback, and progress tracking, regardless of location or facilitator.
Finally, to better prepare students for real-world demands, InnoBest sought to promote independent, self-guided learning. They required a solution that could foster learner autonomy and metacognitive growth beyond the confines of classroom or coaching sessions.
To address these challenges, the team needed an end-to-end platform that was both pedagogically robust and technologically sophisticated. It had to seamlessly integrate coaching, content, assessments, and adaptive personalisation into a unified learning experience.
Recognising HeyHi’s capabilities in delivering adaptive learning at scale, InnoBest integrated two of its flagship platforms to enhance both programme delivery and learner experience.
The first is HeyHi Academy, a centralised digital learning hub that now hosts all of InnoBest’s executive function modules. Through this platform, students and teachers gain streamlined access to learning content in one unified space. Each module includes short-form videos introducing key executive function concepts, digital slides and worksheets tailored to specific competencies such as goal setting and emotional regulation, as well as reflective activities and coaching tools. Formative quizzes and review modules are also embedded to reinforce learning. With a clean interface and mobile-first design, HeyHi Academy empowers students to revise independently, engage with content on demand, and participate in meaningful, self-paced learning.
To complement teacher-led coaching, InnoBest also adopted the HeyHi Personalised Adaptive Learning System (PALS)—an AI-powered platform designed to deliver a gamified and personalised learning experience. This system guides each student through structured competency development, aligning closely with InnoBest’s coaching framework.
Learners progress through a personalised path using nano learning sessions that combine micro-explanations, case studies, and flashcards to strengthen conceptual understanding. Personalised quizzes are automatically generated based on the learner’s profile and prior responses, ensuring that reinforcement is targeted and effective. Review and mastery tests are provided to consolidate knowledge and assess readiness before moving on to subsequent topics.
By mirroring InnoBest’s coaching methodology—understand, apply, reflect, and grow—HeyHi PALS supports students in taking ownership of their learning. Its intuitive progress-tracking tools further motivate learners to engage consistently and develop key executive function competencies with confidence.
- AI-Enabled Personalised Quizzing: PALS intelligently recommends quizzes tailored to each learner’s performance and needs, ensuring no student is left behind.
- Gamified Progression System: Students are encouraged to “level up” by completing learning tasks, quizzes, and reviews—adding a motivational layer to their cognitive development.
- Self-Guided Learning Journey: Each student experiences a personalised path through core EFCs topics, learning at their own pace, while coaches monitor their progress.
- Nano Learning Format: Micro-sized content delivery ensures concepts are easily digestible and highly engaging, ideal for younger learners with shorter attention spans.
- Progress Analytics for Coaches: Instructors can view detailed data dashboards that highlight student strengths, weaknesses, and areas requiring further intervention.
InnoBest’s integration of HeyHi has significantly enhanced its ability to scale executive function coaching while preserving personalisation and programme impact. The collaboration has yielded both measurable and qualitative benefits for students, educators, and schools alike.
For students, the introduction of clear, self-guided learning paths has led to increased autonomy and motivation. Many learners reported feeling a stronger sense of ownership over their personal growth, supported by HeyHi PALS features such as reflective tools and real-time progress tracking. The combination of nano learning modules and personalised assessments also reinforced essential executive functions, including metacognition, emotional regulation, and sustained focus. Beyond formal coaching and school-based activities, students were able to continue learning independently, accessing materials at their own pace and on their own time.
Teachers and coaches likewise experienced significant gains. With HeyHi Academy serving as a centralised platform, educators could easily access structured lesson plans, content libraries, and learner dashboards. This not only streamlined their preparation processes but also improved the consistency of delivery across classrooms. Coaches benefited from adaptive insights that allowed them to monitor individual progress, identify learning gaps, and adjust strategies responsively—thereby enhancing the overall coaching experience.
At the institutional level, InnoBest’s work with Ministry of Education (MOE) schools demonstrated how digital platforms can support national educational priorities. By embedding executive function coaching into school-based programmes and aligning it with Singapore’s competencies-based learning agenda, InnoBest has helped schools introduce 21st-century skills into daily instruction. The data-driven nature of HeyHi’s ecosystem further enabled practical applications of these skills, ensuring relevance and sustainability across diverse learning contexts.
The collaboration between InnoBest and HeyHi presents a compelling example of how education and coaching providers can leverage digital learning platforms to scale, personalise, and enhance the learning experience. Through the use of HeyHi Academy and PALS, InnoBest has redefined the way executive function skills are taught, applied, and reinforced—empowering students to succeed not only in school, but in life.
In today’s world, where motivation, resilience, and adaptability are as crucial as academic achievement, executive functions have become essential rather than optional. InnoBest’s pioneering efforts, supported by HeyHi’s innovative platforms, are paving the way for a future-ready and emotionally intelligent generation.
