Every parent would love to give his or her student the added advantage of private tutoring. Now, using the proven Cisco Webex conferencing technology it is not only possible, it is easy, convenient and affordable, too.
All that’s needed is a computer, a headset with a microphone (or a phone line), and a fast (broadband) Internet connection.
Once a lesson is scheduled, a student simply goes to the eTutorWorld website and signs in at the scheduled time. Simultaneously, an expert tutor signs in as well and the student and the tutor share an interactive white-board on their screens- the online equivalent of a chalkboard that can display pictures, live writing, links, exercises and other state-of-the art teaching materials.
The student and expert tutor talk to each other using the microphone or phone line.
It’s as simple as that. Tutor and student share a view of an online “chalkboard” and talk just as they would face-to-face. It literally is no different than having the expert tutor come to your home.
In fact, many students actually like online tutoring better because they don’t have to worry about what they are wearing, and don’t feel intimidated as they might with an adult tutor in-person.
