Man its amazing. Tutor with &lt;a href="http://Transtutors.com" rel="nofollow"&gt;Transtutors.com&lt;/a&gt; was superb.

Totally agree about the need to have sustainable business models.  We're launching a language learning service at &lt;a href="http://eduFire.com" rel="nofollow"&gt;eduFire.com&lt;/a&gt; that's similar to GlobalScholar (with the addition of live interactive video) and are allowing our teachers to set their own prices.  We're hoping to create a model where the students win (lower prices for private instruction) and the teachers win as well (keeping 80-90% of the fees) rather than the 20-30% they'd get working for a tutoring company.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We're launching in February so hopefully you'll write about us then. :)</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Jon Bischek</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 19 Jan 2008 17:30:29 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
