EdTech is a Trend Driving Market Growth

As academia becomes more and more attractive and competitive, tutoring is also increasing in popularity worldwide. Growing awareness of the general, so-called "basic literacy" and the importance of education in a person's career has significantly accelerated the overall growth of education and related industries. 

GLOBAL PRIVATE ADDITIONAL EDUCATION MARKET

The global private tutoring market size was valued at USD 97.11 billion in 2023, USD 102.08 billion in 2024 and reached USD 132.21 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 9.91% during the forecast period.

Asia Pacific dominated the private tutoring market with a market share of 59% in 2024. Moreover, the private tutoring market size in the U.S. is projected to grow significantly, reaching an estimated value of USD 15.74 billion by 2032, driven by rising academic competition to augment market size growth.

Private tutoring in the UK is now an industry worth approximately £6.5 billion. It's approximately 170,000 British students who attend a school deemed 'inadequate' by their standards.

New trends like online tutoring are seeing especially prominent growth, which may be partly attributable to the familiarity with remote learning that developed during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The anti-Musk protest movement is expected to ramp up with Congress on recess

The anti-Musk protest movement is expected to ramp up with Congress on recess

Donald Trump is the president, but billionaire Elon Musk is the focus for thousands of Democratic activists launching a protest campaign this week to fight the Trump administration's push to gut federal health, education and human services agencies.

Hundreds of protests are scheduled outside congressional offices and Tesla dealerships, with organizers hoping to send a pointed message to members of Congress who are on recess this week.

The backlash still hasn't approached the intensity of protests during and after Trump's first inauguration eight years ago. But a loose coalition of Democrats and progressives is coalescing around Musk's rise as Trump's top lieutenant and his purge of the federal bureaucracy.

“He’s a major weak link in the MAGA coalition,” Ezra Levin, co-founder of the progressive group Indivisible, said of Musk. “I can’t think of something that polls worse than the richest man in the world is coming after your Social Security check or your Meals on Wheels or your Head Start.”

1096 Days of Full-Scale War in Ukraine: and Top-6 Putin’s Crimes

These children were killed yesterday in Odessa by russian missiles ...

As Ukraine endures 1,000 days of relentless full-scale war instigated by russia, the world is compelled to confront the scale of atrocities, violations of international law, and the devastating toll inflicted upon a sovereign nation. This war, spearheaded by Vladimir Putin, has not only shattered lives but also challenged the very foundations of global security and the rule of law.

Putin’s Crimes and Violations of International Law

From the war's outset in February 2022, Russia's actions have constituted gross violations of international law and the principles enshrined in the United Nations Charter. Key violations include:

1. Violation of Ukraine’s Sovereignty and Territorial Integrity
   Russia’s invasion flagrantly disregards Article 2(4) of the UN Charter, which prohibits the use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state. The illegal annexation of Crimea in 2014 and the subsequent occupation of Ukrainian territories exemplify Moscow's imperial ambitions.

2. War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity
   Documented atrocities include deliberate attacks on civilian infrastructure, mass killings in Bucha and Irpin, sexual violence, forced deportations, and the targeting of hospitals, schools, and cultural sites. These acts breach the Geneva Conventions and constitute war crimes.

3. Use of Banned Weaponry
   The Russian military has employed cluster munitions and thermobaric weapons, which are prohibited under international humanitarian law. These weapons indiscriminately kill civilians and exacerbate human suffering.

4. Forced Deportations and Kidnappings
   Over 19,000 Ukrainian children have been forcibly deported to Russia, a crime condemned as genocide by international legal experts. This violates the Genocide Convention and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.

5. Weaponizing Energy and Food Supplies
   Russia has blockaded Ukrainian grain exports, threatening global food security, and manipulated energy supplies to Europe, violating UN norms against economic coercion.

6. Targeting of Nuclear Infrastructure
   The occupation of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant and threats of nuclear escalation undermine the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) and pose risks of catastrophic consequences.

Germany's front-runner Merz: a “fighter” unafraid to court controversy

EXCLUSIVE: 'Sparks could fly' between Donald Trump and Friedrich Merz, who is tipped to be Germany's next Chancellor, an expert says.

Joachim-Friedrich Martin Josef Merz (born 11 November 1955) is a German politician who has served as Leader of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) since January 2022 and led the CDU/CSU (Union) parliamentary group as well as being Leader of the Opposition in the Bundestag since February 2022. In September 2024, he became the Union's candidate for Chancellor of Germany ahead of the 2025 federal election.

Friedrich Merz: Germany’s Comeback Conservative Staking His Claim

He’s been dismissed as a relic, a polarizing figure, and even a political gambler. Yet Friedrich Merz, 69, now stands closer than ever to the chancellorship—a role he’s chased for decades. To supporters, he’s the antidote to Germany’s leadership malaise; to critics, a symbol of the Christian Democratic Union’s (CDU) rightward lurch.
