ThinkingStorm's e-tutoring uses the Elluminate Whiteboard Platform. Think of it as a virtual chalkboard on your computer where students and tutors work out problems and diagrams in real-time, creating an instantaneous connection that's essential to learning. Because Elluminate is so easy to use, students get quick, clear guidance for any subject.
If your internet connection is disrupted, the Elluminate software will continuously attempt to reconnect until a connection is possible. If, for whatever reason, Elluminate is not able to re-establish a connection and your session is cut short, a make up session will be provided to you at no additional cost.
Our toll-free Customer Support is available Monday-Friday from 10 AM-6 PM EST at (877)-889-5996. There are also online chat support representatives available during all of our operating hours. Click on the blue “Online Chat” button from the ThinkingStorm homepage to speak with one of them online. You may also email questions or concerns to care@thinkingstorm.com.
