It all started with a few videos that Khan recorded for tutoring his
cousin. Little did he know that he would soon be filling in the void
that existed amongst those in the need of free quality education. The
tremendous popularity of his home videos, eventually led to what is
today one of the widely accessed tutorial websites in the
worldwww.khanacademy.com. With the support of the Bill and Melinda Gates
Foundation and Google Foundation, the academy caters to thousands of
students per day providing access to free learning. A study model that
allows for tutor support, progress reports and learning curve
statistics, makes the website a coveted source of alternate learning for
students worldwide.
