WiZiQ is an educational community on the web, connecting teachers and learners.
Teachers and learners can build their profile, form learning networks and connect with members via virtual classroom thus breaking the barriers of distance.
WiZiQ is a highly advanced learning system where teachers and learners can meet in real time using just a PC with an internet connection. Doing away the constraints of physical distance between the teacher and the learner, WiZiQ uses a virtual classroom application that is fully equipped with 2-way audio, text chat, whiteboard, PowerPoint and PDF Document sharing capabilities allowing an instantaneous exchange of notes between the teacher and the learner. They can write queries and solutions easily on the whiteboard that are displayed on the computer screens of both the participants at the same time; making the personal tutoring a highly interactive and rich learning experience.

Well this certainly is a unique concept in e-learning. I am sure that soon this is going to be the future meeting point of teachers and learners.
