If you are taking an online language session, how do you know if your tutor is the right one for you? What are the most important for you as a language learner? What’s the main difference between a good teacher and "not that good’?
Thanks for your answers!

In my professional however unlicensed opinion. I would say it all depends on your objectives while getting a language tutor. For example, I study grammar on my own, A bulk of my language learning is done by listening and reading, the use of an online tutor for me is basically a speaking partner who 1.) I find interesting enough to talk to for the duration of the session and 2.) Is patient with my mistakes. That is my opinion of a good online language tutor. Now you might want a language tutor who explains the ins and outs of every grammatical error you make. In that case that would be a good tutor for you. I would say before, if you don’t already have a tutor, make sure you have an idea of the experience you want from a language tutor and what you want to achieve from the interaction. A good language tutor would be one whose tutoring method aligns with your goals.
