Terracotta, terra cotta or terra-cotta (Italian: "baked earth",[1] from the Latin terra cotta), a type of earthenware, is a clay-based unglazed or glazed ceramic,[2] where the fired body is porous.[3][4][5][6] Its uses include vessels (notably flower pots), water and waste water pipes, bricks, and surface embellishment in building construction, along with sculpture such as the Terracotta Army and Greek terracotta figurines. The term is also used to refer to items made out of this material and to its natural, brownish orange color, which varies considerably. In archaeology and art history, "terracotta" is often used to describe objects such as figurines, not made on a potter's wheel. Objects made on a wheel from the same material, are called pottery; the choice of term depends on the type of object rather than the material Refer the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terracotta. read less

The average fees of tuetion depends upon the following factors : (1) Cost of time (2) Quality of teaching ( It is co-factor between students and a teacher) (3) Total number of students in a class ( may be 1 or it may be 30 or more ?) (4) Overhead expenses incurred by the teacher ( like electricity charges, AC Charges, cost of stationary etc.) (5) Rent if any paid by the teacher (6) Investment made and running cost of the same for running the class ( Cost of Books purchased , furniture and fixtures , black Board,, Computers , Projectors , lighting etc.) (7) days per week ( may be 3 days or 4 days or 6 days ?) so there may be other factors directly or indirectly influencing the quantum of fees. Moreover, the exact amount of fees cannot be predicted because the ultimate factor is demand and supply ratio which decides the fees case to case basis and locationwise as per theory of economics. Please write you views in this matter. Thanks
