This new concept has already got massively popular across many countries and is helpful for both tutor as well as the student. In this new type of distance learning environment, students and the tutor communicate with each other in an interactive environment to solve their study related problems. Sitting far from each other with huge differences in time, weather, climate and culture, the students belonging to the same study group get helped by the tutor who has the liberty of choosing the group size and setting the tone of study in this virtual tutoring environment.
