This is an interesting video! Have you considered tagging it to make it easier to find. This isn't spam or anything. Bob Bradley (who I'm guessing you might know, he sent me to this video)... Anyway, I'm going to be doing a video on tagging, actually, that should be up soon. I had some trouble finding this video, that's why I'm saying all of this, by the way. Anyway, have a great day!

But suppose you have only the choice between seeing a lousy tutor in person or having a synchronous online-collaboration with an excellent tutor. In such a case you might well prefer an online-conversation to that wonderfully warm human feeling that an "in flesh relationship" might conceivably provide.
Also, in order to meet in person, at least one of the participants has to waste some time travelling. I have seen cases where MORE time was wasted travelling than spent with actual tutoring.

I'm in agreement that relationships are key to the learning process, but is there not a substantive difference between an online relationship (someone who is my twitter follower or facebook friend) and an in-the-flesh relationship, such as the one that exists between a student and tutor when they meet in person? I'd argue that the latter is irreplaceable, and is much more valuable than any online resource.
