Overall, it was a good experience. The tutor I had was very smart and was really good at explaining Calculus topics. When signing up I had the impression I'd have a personal tutor face-to-face. I ended up getting a UCF graduate who was still currently living in Florida which required webcam sessions. I was a bit apprehensive about the webcam tutoring, but after the first session my view totally changed. The webcam sessions ended up being prefect. It allowed for some minor schedule changes a few times and was much more flexible. Each tutoring session was 1.5 hours. For mathematics, and probably all subjects, I strongly advise having a small "game plan" together the night before your tutoring session to get the maximum benefit out of your tutor.
