Abstract

One-on-one online tutoring offers equal chances, provides learning resources, and enhances learning performances for students in remote areas. This study examined the effects of learning and teaching during online English tutoring. A total of ten online tutees, ten online tutors and on-site supervisors participated in the study. Research data included video recordings of the teaching, the online tutors' tutoring journals, the supervisors' journals, and the logs of online English tutoring. Quantitative and qualitative research methods were both used to analyze the data. The study found that online tutees were usually in good moods; they were highly focused, and their learning effects were excellent. Online tutors were always fully prepared with their English teaching materials and they interacted well with online tutees. Online tutors and online tutees both went online on schedule. Overall, the effects of learning and teaching during online English tutoring were effective and helpful.
