Time-saving: Online tutoring seeks to supplement classroom learning.

The online tutoring space has never looked more promising. The demand for online lessons has been increasing significantly, both among students in India and those abroad.

With the aim of offering scholastic success, www.teachers4uonline.com, started in collaboration with a United States-based company, has been offering online academic support for several students around the globe.

The team running the portal www.teachers4uonline. com develops content that includes animation and other visual aids that would enable easier understanding of concepts. Not surprisingly, the e-learning service offered by them is increasingly finding more takers. Parents, too, seem to find e-learning a convenient option for their children, as it saves children's time and energy spent on travel.

www.teachers4uonline.com caters to students in Classes IX to XII in the ICSE, CBSE, Matriculation streams and the Tamil Nadu State Board Syllabus, covering Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry.

Interactive sessions, scope for instant clarification of doubts, access to online tutors from any workstation, selfassessment tests, experienced faculty, learning at one's home and peer interaction are salient features of this service.

Arvind Dhinakar, a 11th grade student of the Indian School, Salalah, Sultanate of Oman, says the online sessions are "really great." "The teaching is of a very high standard. I am able to get all my doubts cleared," he says.
