How to deliver effective and engaging online tutoring

Free downloadable guide with strategies, examples, and data you can use right away

Online tutoring often ends up feeling like a video call, not a real learning experience. Without structure, interactivity, or visibility into learner progress, tutors struggle to provide personalized support, and students can quickly check out.

This handout shares practical ideas for designing high-impact online tutoring. You'll learn how to build consistent sessions, incorporate active learning, and use engagement data to guide instruction. Plus, you'll get a behind-the-scenes look at how Engageli helps scale tutoring while maintaining quality and connection.
