Like any other geek I have an eternal love for gadgets, especially those shiny, slick and expensive ones. If you’re reading this, I am sure you’re in that category as well. Over time, I discovered a number of websites that I found extremely useful for my gadget mania. Some help me decide what to buy next, other for troubleshooting, and a couple to get rid of the old ones.

New Delhi, Jun 13 : Gone are the days when tuition classes meant long hours after school with a bespectacled, cane-wielding tutor, for tutorials are now available on the Internet and tutors today are smart and tech-savvy.
Anushree holds a Bachelors degree in Science. She teaches Biology to a student in the UAE via video conferencing. Just a couple of hours a day, and Anushree can earn as much as Rs 10-15,000 a month.
“Timings are flexible and there are no geographical boundaries. I can pursue something else alongside,” Anushree says explaining the job benfits.
It may not sound glamorous enough, but e-tutoring is a booming industry, with students from UK, USA, UAE and India logging on to seek help with their Math and Science homework.
And as schoolteacher Deepika, who’s also a part time e-tutor, explains, a huge advantage of the job is that you can work with an e-tutoring company either on a full-time or part time basis.
“Neither the students nor I have to travel. It’s the same as teaching one-on-one as both the audio and visual elements are there,” she explains.New Delhi, Jun 13 : Gone are the days when tuition classes meant long hours after... more

Michele Hernandez boasts that 95% of her teenage clients are accepted by their first-choice school. Her price: As much as $40,000 a student
As I listened to my 8th period English teacher drone on for the third time about how Finny, a character in A Separate Peace, was indeed the main character although he was not the narrator, it finally dawned on me that this was not the exciting world of high school that I had hoped for.
This is how Andrew Garza began an essay in his application to Haverford College. It was a 1,200-word piece that established him as an intellectually curious young man. It was crafted to appeal specifically to the admissions officers at the small liberal arts school. And it was the idea of his high-priced college admissions coach, Michele A. Hernandez. Garza attended a private school in Switzerland, and that worried Hernandez: She thought he might appear to be a privileged teenager without much substance. So she advised him to write about why he had left his public high school in suburban New Jersey. "We had to make it seem like he didn't want to be around so many rich kids. We spun a whole story about him taking the initiative to leave in order to broaden his experience," Hernandez says. "It was his initiative. But he wouldn't have written about it."Michele Hernandez boasts that 95% of her teenage clients are accepted by their... more
