Hardware / System Requirements
What are the system requirements to get started with online
tutoring?
To get started with online
tutoring, you only
need a computer with a broadband internet connection. No special
equipment or software is needed. However, you may find a microphone
and speakers on your computer to be useful.
A digital writing pad is also recommended, but is
not mandatory. This will help you to type, write or draw
pictures on the whiteboard effectively. You can write /draw with a
mouse as well, but at times it may seem difficult to navigate with a
mouse. To buy a digital writing pad from one of the nation's largest
and most trusted suppliers, feel free to click on the links below.

Do I need a particular brand of writing tablet?
No. We do not recommend a particular brand of writing tablet. There
are numerous choices to choose from in the market, and all perform
the same basic function
Do I need to download any software before I begin my
session?
No. There is no software to download.
All components of the tutoring session including the
whiteboard, voice conferencing, and teleconferencing are hosted by
Felicity Motivational Group. You will need to have Java, a platform
that is pre-installed on 99.9% of all computers in the world. To
learn more about Java, please visit their site:

Removing the need to download software is just one of the ways that
Felicity Tutors has simplified online tutoring.
What kind of internet connection do I need?
A high speed internet connection (such as DSL or Cable) will work
best for our tutoring sessions. A dial-up connection with an output
better than 32kbps would also work well. To determine your
connection speed, please

that is outside of http://www.felicitytutors.com. You will need to
select the server or city that is closest to you.
As education becomes more competitive, we can ensure that students
are prepared
