I like this idea. There are lots of things that I know and even more things that I’m interested in knowing, but I’m not sure I understand how it would play out.
How much tutoring experience do you have? What sorts of resources would there be for tutors? How long do you see tutor relationships lasting? What does it look like to tutor someone in Python Programming. Is this person trying to learn python on their own? Are they following a guide I’m familiar with? I know calculus like the back of my hand, but that doesn’t mean I have lesson plans mapped out. Tutoring is typically done in-addition to some other form of education.
I’m not sure that every student can be a teacher, and if you want people to be good teachers, I think it will require giving them access to a lot more resources than a GoogleGroups page and webcam.
I like the concept, I’d be interested in seeing a more fleshed out description.
