I am not sure if you aware of it but Prince Georges County Memorial 
Library offers Live Homework Help an online homework help program for free 
to its patrons. Students click on the Live Homework Help icon on the 
library's web page, enter their grade level (grades 4 through intro to 
college), select a subject with which they would like help (math,English 
(including essay writing), social studies, science (including earth 
science, biology, chemistry, physics)and connect to a tutor in an online 
classroom with a whiteboard. The student can ask the tutor for help with a 
particular homework problem and the tutor will work with the student to 
help him/her to understand the concept. All sessions are one to one and 
are recorded. 

If your program takes place in the library, your students should be able 
to access this free service. This service is also offered for free in many 
other libraries throughout the country.

For information about other libraries that may offer this service, you can 
reply to this email or visit our web site at www.tutor.com.
