Hello!

I am looking for techincal resources on creating an online tutoring business. This would be an extension of my current in-home tutoring business.

I am looking for:

1) any ideas
2) software resources

3) pricing information

4) techincal do's and don'ts of an online tutoring business

5) information on software to manage and schedule "online employees"

6) software to track minutes used by a student or tutor

7) typical mistakes made by online service companies (regardless of industry)

8) What kind of back-up plan do online services have when the server goes down? Can a site be "mirrored" somewhere else and then pick up where the downed site left off? Or is that just reserved for super-duper important services like bank servers that get flooded during hurricanes? (In my defense, try explaining to Johnny's mom why he failed the test because his studying software was down and he couldn't access his online American History notes the night before the exam. The failed test lowers him to a C in the class and he loses his scholarship to ThisIsYourFuture University.)


Thank you for any direction you can offer!

CoffeBean,

I suggested that you may want to consider creating an online tutoring
service. We have worked in this area and can actually provide you with
the information you seek as well as develop your site(s) for you.
Please send me an email with your contact information to
instantv@gmail.com or you will also find my contact information in my
profile. I look forward to speaking with you and answering each of the
questions you have asked as well as some which you did not ask.I should be in the office most of the day on Tuesday.
