They use the Socratic method, ask questions to see where the problems are, and then provide information and guidance. If the tutor believes they cannot help the student, they refer them back to the instructor. NetTutor is a comprehensive online tutoring service for all levels of university courses. All tutors are highly trained and are experts in the course you are taking.
NetTutor offers online tutoring in many subjects, except Math, English and Writing during the fall and spring semesters. NetTutor is the only major online tutoring service that allows each institution to customize every aspect of the service their students will receive. NetTutor is research-based and has a rich history of providing online tutoring and academic support to educational institutions in a variety of disciplines and academic programs. NetTutor meets with all students who ask for help “where they are” with an unwavering commitment to quality and inclusion.
A study conducted at Hampton University in 1999 concluded that NetTutor could effectively support activities such as online office hours. NetTutor is also compliant with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 Level AA and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act and complies with FERPA. LSI, apparently in response to several controversies surrounding the use of distance education and online tutoring, has taken some steps to assure users of the academic value of NetTutor. The first research on NetTutor was conducted by educators eager to use technology in their own teaching.
NetTutor was launched in 1996, making it the first private online tutoring service where the student can choose synchronous tutoring, with the tutor and the student simultaneously online, or asynchronous, where the student sends questions and receives an answer through direct messages. Partnering with NetTutor means providing your students with the assistance they need from qualified and experienced online tutors. Over the next few years, NetTutor has been packaged with higher education textbooks published by John Wiley and Sons, Pearson, Cengage Learning and Bedford, Freeman and Worth. They can point out two main objectives and any additional information in the NetTutor paper submission form that informs and guides the tutor to a more appropriate and personalized response.
Students can also go online to the NetTutor link and enter a live board to ask the teacher for any explanation of grades in their work or questions related to writing in English.
