Online Whiteboard Instructions

We have set up an interactive whiteboard for your online tutorials. We strongly recommend using Google Chrome to access the whiteboard. (If you don’t already have Chrome installed, it can be downloaded here.)

You should meet your Tutor on the whiteboard at the scheduled tutorial time. We recommend using Zoom as a video link alongside the online whiteboard – please share details prior to your first online tutorial. Other options for a video link include Skype, WhatsApp and Facetime – please be in touch to agree on the best one to use. It is possible to record the tutorial when using Zoom or Skype.

We recommend a drawing tablet, particularly for Maths tutorials, to make writing on the online whiteboard easier. A selection of drawing tablets may be found here. Note that they come in different sizes: 6×4 is the size of a postcard and 10×6 is just smaller than an A4 page.

It would be a good idea to try out the whiteboard before your first tutorial. The whiteboard is accessible any time, including outside of tutorials.

If you have any technical difficulties, please contact our team (info@oxfordtutors.com) — we will be happy to help.
