How do tutors "tutor" online? What do they actually do? Is it just question and answers?
Tutoring can be synchronous (real time) or asynchronous (question and answer format). Tutors online do the same kinds of things face-to-face tutors do: they ask questions, provide examples and models, and help students become independent learners. Synchronous tutoring usually involves a whiteboard, screen sharing, and text chat; many platforms also allow for audio and video.
