Jan 22, 2021

When the global pandemic hit, many families were reluctant to abandon face-to-face tutoring for remote platforms. Are their good reasons to be equally hesitant to completely return to old models of instruction?  Amy and Mike invited educator Christopher Sanderson to review key strategies to make online tutoring matter more.

3. What is the 15/15 Rule, and how does it capitalize on recaptured commute time?
4. What efficiencies does remote instruction offer that lead to more productive teaching?
5. Why is the shift of locus of learning from outside the home to inside it so profound?
