Mikogo is a free online screen sharing tool with great features for online teaching. Users can host free online meetings in real time and invite up to 10 participants to any meeting. Mikogo uses standard ports (80, 443) and protocols so it will work in conjunction with the user's current settings. This makes starting and joining an online meeting very fast and easy to use. Switch presenter, remote keyboard and mouse control, file transfer etc, are just a few of the features. Free calls and screen sharing with the Mikogo Skype Extra. I hope you have a moment to check it out. It’s completely free - no hidden catches. If you have any questions concerning how Mikogo can assist you in creating your online classrooms, please feel free to contact me. I hope to hear from you.

It seems like it has some very useful features that italki.com should also integrate when it begins supporting group chat. italki's chat function has the advantages of showing all your contacts right in your chat window and connecting you with a global community of language learners. Good luck with your Argentina meeting. Toffler Seth,
