Tutoring Websites
How do you find a private online tutor? Go to a tutoring website, and choose one. There you can look at tutors' pictures, experience and ratings. The site also lists their subjects and available times as well as the cost. You can sign up for a trial session. If you don't like that particular tutor, you can choose another.
A tutoring website can also select a tutor for you. You tell them what you need, and they match you with someone. They have a pool of thousands of tutors.
So how much does an online tutor cost? Some cost US$10 to US$15 per hour. Tutors for difficult or specific subjects cost US$45 to US$100 per hour. Tutors with degrees from famous universities and a lot of experience usually cost more. When you need immediate help with homework, a tutoring website can find you a tutor right away. They charge 50 cents to $1.00 a minute.
A good tutor is just a few clicks away.

something clicks 突然明白了一件事情
Hi, everyone. And welcome to Info Cloud. Rex, I want to say that I really enjoy teaching with you here on the Info Cloud.
Well, thanks, Andrea. I appreciate you saying that. I'm so glad that I click with you.
Yes, I agree, we click. Now, we hope that today's topic clicks with all of you. When you click with someone, you have a positive and a friendly connection with that person. This connection often happens quickly.
So you can click with a person, you have a good connection with them. And you can also click with a group. You can say Karl joined a running team and clicked well with everyone there. Or Sara clicked with her new book club.
We also use this word "click" when something clicks. When something clicks, it makes sense, and it's understood by everyone.
This can take time, especially when you are learning a language. It may take a long time for grammar points or sentence structures to click. But if you keep trying and keep practicing, they will eventually click.
Now that's a great point. Things we're learning do not click right away. My son started reading later than most of his friends. But after lots of hard work and practicing, it clicked. Now he loves reading. Well, friends, we hope this lesson clicked with you.
今天要跟大家分享一些跟 click 有關的用語，click 就是扣起來的喀擦那『喀』的聲音，當你聽到有人說 something clicks，字面上的意思是有東西扣起來或是發出『喀』的聲音，真正的涵義是這個人突然明白了一件事情。During the class, something clicks for John. 在上課的時候，John突然開竅了，明白了一些內容。除了恍然大悟之外，click 也可以用來形容一些人連結在一起，變成朋友了。Carl joined a running team and clicked with everyone. Carl 參加賽跑的團隊，跟大家混得很熟。
