e-Tutor students say that online tutoring has characteristics their teachers do not offer. The online program is always available. The program has a "patient" character and is nonjudgmental. e-Tutor allows students to be anonymous and allows them to do many things at the same time. e-Tutor aligns online information to the student's learning program.
Tutors are all certified teachers and work in the e-Tutor office in Chicago. Tutors are available at times that are convenient for both student and tutor.
