Internet Tips
The reason for this posting is to introduce tutors and teachers on this website and also the students who are looking for a tutor on this website to a free tool which is a great complement for tutors and students.
Crossloop (www.crossloop.com - Monterey, California) is a free screen sharing product for people. It is the simplest out of many similar products on the market. The tutor can share their own screen as view only mode (so student can only view the screen). Tutor can also have the student control their computer. Similarly the student can share their own screen or can have the tutor control their computer. This tool can be used by ESL tutors to educate their students remotely.
Crossloop is for: tutors who have students who cannot make it to classroom on regular basis, or students who are in the other part of the world, or tutors who want to do ESL tutoring from their home.
