How does it work?
Using online whiteboard tools, you and I can communicate in real time through voice, text, pictures, and video. We share the same whiteboard space. So, both of us can collaborate in real time on a particular topic.
How is this different from a face-to-face tutor?
You can get help from anywhere there is an internet connection. You can do it from the comfort of your own home, at the library, or while at a friends house. You still get the one-on-one attention that a face-to-face tutor provides, but without having to go to the tutor.
