Mikogo is a free screen-sharing tool that has now partnered to Skype to launch Mikogo Skype Extra. With this extra, you can now share your screen with your students while you’re teaching/tutoring online.

Users can host free online meetings in real time and invite up to 10 participants to any meeting. Some features are:

  • switch presenter
  • file transfer
  • mouse and keyboard control (useful in case your students are lost or have encountered some technical glitch you can solve).
