Abstract: A system for instruction a student comprises an online learning system having one or more nodes that creates a learning session at a session start time. The online learning node creates a learning environments having a virtual classroom such that at the virtual class room, at least one student can view the activity associated with at least one other student with or without teacher involvement. A database stores one or more matching parameters for matching on or more students with one or more teachers. A matching node selects a teacher for a plurality of students for the online learning session based on the one or more matching parameters. The online learning node places the plurality of students in the virtual class room after the matching node matches the teacher and one or more students and prior to the session start time. According to another aspect, the virtual classroom is created between a first online learning session and a second online learning session scheduled for a student consecutively.
