Online Tutor Job

Whenever the word "OUTSOURCING" pops up, the next word that comes into most people's mind is India. Because of cheap and highly skilled manpower, the country has become a major destination for outsourcing. Along with IT, another new outsourcing market is emerging; online tutoring. India is the best place for online tutoring. Before talking about why India is the best choice for online tutorial outsourcing, I would like to provide some information about online tutoring.
In simple words, it is just another version of one to one teaching. A knowledgeable person on a particular subject teaches a student of one country on that subject. The whole thing is done via internet: through specially designed chatrooms, email websites. The student interacts with his/her teacher. All it needs that the student and the teacher have computers and access to internet.
Compared to other South Asian countries, India's education system gives more emphasis on English. English is India's second language as well. Among all the South Asian countries, Indian writers have achieved a very good position in the field of English literature. Outsourcing businesses are done through internet. Face to face interactions between clients and the company do not happen frequently. For this reason, good will, good image, honesty, and clarity are important factors in this business. The same goes for online tutoring as well.
The beauty of this whole process is Easy access, convenient, and cost effective. The student can study at his own time; he does not have to go to another place. Many students are shy; they do not talk or ask questions in the class in fear of being ridiculed. On the net, he is alone with his teacher. There is no one to make fun. One to one teaching is always very effective and online tutoring is all about that.
