FAQ about Online Tutoring and Homework Help

This is an excerpt from an article on Online Tutoring by Jamie Littlefield at About.com.

*Homework Help through the Internet
If you’re stuck on a math problem or are struggling to write your term paper, online tutors can come to the rescue. Online tutoring is a convenient way for online students to get the extra help they need. With just a click of the mouse (and a few bucks, of course) you can get feedback from professors and professionals around the world.

*How does it work?
Each tutoring program has its own way of helping students. Some tutor over email or through a live messaging system. Others use videoconferencing or message boards. Just pick the one that fits you best.

*How much does it cost?
Online tutoring prices vary according to the program and the amount of help you need. Tutoring charges range from under twenty (for a quick edit of a paper) to hundreds of dollars (for a thorough read and revision of a lengthy essay).

*Is it cheating?
There are a lot of sites out there that will do your homework for you, but tutoring sites don’t fall in that category. Just like a tutor at a traditional school, these sites look over your work, make suggestions, and guide you to do your best. Check with your professor if you’re worried about an online tutoring program being perceived as cheating or plagiarism.

I hope this information has been useful in helping you find an online tutoring service to help with your homework and concept understanding.

Thanks,
