| Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's) |
1. What is live online one-on-one interactive math tutoring? Live online one-on-one tutoring is a tutoring session that is interactive between the student and the tutor. It is typically conducted with the use of a phone line or instant messaging and an interactive whiteboard that both student and tutor can see at the same time. Documents can also be scanned or faxed in to your tutor to further facilitate the communications.
2. How effective is this method of math tutoring? The MATH Doctor has actually found on line interactive math tutoring to be more convenient for the student than person to person math tutoring; as it can be conducted while the student is in their own relaxed and secure environment. The student does not have to depend on transportation to and from and the parent does not have to be concerned with outside safety issues. The same personal and customized student learning format is still available to the student via online interactive tutoring.
