I want to tutor a college student. The subject is Algebra. I would like to do it remote. What’s the best software to use for this. Is MS Net-Meeting good enough. Ideally it should be interactive? Is this possible?

Does anyone know of a place where you can take a course in Greek language or where you can get a Greek tutor. I was taking an online course with video conferencing but my tutor which was really good stopped giving classes. Before that I tried with tapes and that was so so. I was really learning fast with a teacher and it was fun. I have been searching for a teacher either in Los Angeles county or Orange County but have unsuccessful. If anyone knows of a place or a tutor please let me know. Thank you:)

Asking for my husband, who is 44, has a B.S. in Computer Science, and 25+ years work experience as a programmer including corp experience with IBM, Peachtree Software, PriceWaterhouseCoopers and other consulting companies. He has also taught credited college classes as a adjunct professor.
He would like to teach credited college-level computer science or I/T classes remotely via the internet. But where would he find such teaching opportunities? He’s got great recommendations from the adjunct professorship and he’s a talented teacher. He even published training books.
With just a B.S. degree, he knows he’d be limited to 2-year or technical colleges, but with more of them now providing online classes, how does he get to be one of those teachers?
We’re located in North Georgia. He already has virtual meeting equipment from his other work (as a remotely based work-from-home software consultant for 15+ years).
