From dreaming to creating his desired success, DJ Pulse Toronto is here to stay and slay inthe music game. https://www.newsx.com/from-dreaming-to-creating-his-desired-success-dj-pulse-toronto-is-here-to-stay-and-slay-inthe-music-game/ https://www.newsx.com/from-dreaming-to-creating-his-desired-success-dj-pulse-toronto-is-here-to-stay-and-slay-inthe-music-game/#respond Mon, 06 Mar 2023 05:39:17 +0000 https://www.newsx.com/?p=739707 The young DJing talent is a versatile professional who has also excelled at niches like artist
management and organizing destination weddings.
It is so amazing to learn and read more about all those individuals and professionals who
belong, especially to the younger brigade. Why, you wonder? Well, because all these
individuals showcase a certain level of brilliance when it comes to their work and with that,
they shine brighter than the rest in their respective industries. It is thus necessary to
understand the journeys and successes of these youngsters who never leave a stone
unturned in becoming what their hearts truly seek. We couldn’t help but notice how a true-
blue music professional and DJing talent, Prableen Singh, aka DJ Pulse Toronto, rose to be
one such excellent talent in the music realm.
Though he was born and raised in Muscat, the Middle East, he has radiated his pure music
talents across many other parts of the Middle East like Dubai, Oman, Qatar and Bahrain and
even in India and Canada. Right from his first dance performance on stage at mere 14 years
with the King of Punjabi Pop, Malkit Singh, he was sure he would get into the artistic and
creative realms someday. Little did he know then that life would take him toward the world
of music and turn him into a much-talked-about DJ in the Middle East, who would also
perform with the who’s who of Bollywood celebs like Akshay Kumar, Sonam Kapoor, Diljit
Dosanjh, Mika Singh, Sonakshi Sinha, Sanjay Dutt, Imran Khan and many others.
It won’t be wrong to say that this young DJ, who specializes in Bollywood music, apart from
House, Hip-Hop, Bhangra and Arabic, also has grown as a versatile professional between
Toronto and Middle East, showing his A-game even in organizing destination weddings and
in artist management. So many high-profile weddings have been curated and created under
his leadership across Muscat. In Mumbai, he and his team make sure to arrange Bollywood
celebrities’ performances across the Middle East.
All this has what turned DJ Pulse Toronto (@djpulsetoronto) into a public figure whose
success and versatility have gone ahead in inspiring the youth across India, the Middle East,
Canada and beyond.

Here’s how Edtech is bridging the learning gap in tier 2 and 3 cities https://www.newsx.com/heres-how-edtech-is-bridging-the-learning-gap-in-tier-2-and-3-cities/ https://www.newsx.com/heres-how-edtech-is-bridging-the-learning-gap-in-tier-2-and-3-cities/#respond Thu, 30 Jun 2022 08:15:51 +0000 https://dashboard.newsx.com/?p=650413 Right to quality education is no longer a dream confined to India’s metros and technology, without a doubt has been the critical catalyst here. Online education has ushered in a new revolution in the recent past and this growth has been majorly fuelled by smaller towns and cities in India that are increasingly transitioning to digital. Today, these edtech platforms have not only offered access to high quality learning to students in tier 2 and 3 cities but have also bridged the gaps in conventional schooling.

India’s edtech gained momentum after the pandemic led to a complete shutdown of schools. While students in metros and urban markets quickly shifted to online learning, those belonging to Tier-II, III, and beyond cities lost access to basic education daily. Fortunately, edtech came to the rescue infusing tech based solutions into traditional learning methods and propelled the sector back to normalcy.

Today, ed-tech is being used across K–12, higher education, and professional training purposes. Teachers in smaller towns and cities are increasingly getting equipped with world-class knowledge and have access to the latest devices and technology.  Even parents, driven by the desire to provide quality education to their children, are seeing the assurance and innovation that edtech promises.

With the potential to improve educational quality in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, ed-tech platforms are developing solutions that are user-friendly and economical. Parents in tier 2 and 3 cities recognize the benefits of technology today. They are satisfied by the quality of instruction and delivery offered by edtech and at costs that are conducive to their means.

If we go by history, the internet has standardized anything it touches and education has not been an exception. By offering access to global information and resources, it has made content from the most diverse and credible sources available ensuring quality that is equal to global markets. In India, Brainly offers an exhaustive knowledge base of over 48 million questions and answers, that is available for free to students.

Online learning platforms also promise time and location flexibility for students in smaller towns and rural areas who usually travel long distances to attend schools. These students may now learn from the convenience of their homes while attending lectures and getting their doubts solved via online learning.

In a nation of linguistic diversity as that of ours, learning has an intrinsic connection with language. Online learning has enabled students to pursue studies in languages they are most comfortable in. On Brainly, the world’s most extensive knowledge reserve is available across Bengali, Telugu, Tamil, Gujarati, Kannada, Hindi, Marathi, and Sanskrit for Indian students. To ensure further access to education, the company is planning to expand its footprint in more Indian languages.

India’s tier 2 and 3 cities’ core middle class and newly rising middle-class households make up the bulk of this demography. Vernacular languages, including Hindi and Hinglish, are spoken in this segment. Nearly 528 million individuals make up this cohort, often known as the Next Half Billion (NHB). It is anticipated that the NHB sector will propel K12 EdTech growth in India and expand a $400 million market to $1.7 billion in near future.

Riding on scalable technology, affordability and surging adoption, digital learning platforms in India like Brainly education app are generating useful solutions and serving as engines for socio-economic development and transformation. High-quality education exists across the nation today, due to the digitalization of the classroom, especially in smaller towns and cities.

It’s true that the adoption of technology in learning was a forced one due to the pandemic but at core, it has caused a transformation that promises growth and potential. Edtech was a blessing in disguise for India’s smaller cities and the reliance on urban markets for higher education is on a decline. By developing a future ready edtech ecosystem that thrives on government initiatives, technological developments, machine learning and other areas, we can soon make uniformity in education across the nation a reality.
