Which is better, face-to-face or video tutoring?

In fact, there will be a lot of information missing in video tutoring. For example, you can only see each other's faces, and the two sides are not in the same time and space, so you can't see the whole picture of each other. There is also that kind of video consultation for a long time. When I see a real person, I suddenly find that the other person is actually a head taller than myself. Although this information may not have any direct impact on the consultation itself, seeing and not seeing is different after all, and the physical distance will still be limited.

In addition, in the context of psychoanalysis, the first sentence at the beginning of each consultation generally determines the direction of a consultation. Perhaps in face-to-face consultation, once seated in the consultation room, visitors can start talking about themselves. The first sentence of video consultation may often be: "Can you hear me?" Moreover, the consultation effect is also greatly influenced by the network situation, and there will be sudden jams, black screens, and problems that the last sentence was not clearly heard.

And why are people willing to choose video consultation? Because visitors may not have good psychological counseling resources in the local area, if TA can accept video counseling, the optional range will be expanded a lot. Maybe all domestic consultants can choose at will, and even those with good English can find foreign consultants. If the video consultation will give you a 10% discount on the consultation effect, then the local consultant will score 70 points and the foreign consultant will score 95 points. Even with this discount, you can still go beyond face-to-face consultation, which is not an alternative path.
