What are the differences between a face-to-face consultation and an online one?
One benefit is that when the appointment begins, the tutor has already read your paper and is ready to discuss your questions. Another is that if you have access to the Internet at home, you don’t have to travel to campus for the consultation; you can participate at home in your pajamas! A drawback is that communication is limited to words only, and the conversation moves only as fast as your fingers. You can’t draw on nonverbal communication or tone of voice as you and the tutor interact. We would still recommend you read your paper out loud to yourself at some point during your revisions.
