I'm enrolled in an online degree program. There are tutors available, so I suppose that might qualify.

I think it's been fairly well documented that one can learn this way. It shouldn't be the only tool used, but an adjunct.

I need help with Science. Are there any free or inexpensive tutors available online? I found several databases full of science answers which were very helpful, but I would really like to find a tutor to work with.
