My dad is a school teacher and had an idea to try to give back to vets.  He wants to create a web site that service members can go to and virtually communicate with teachers that are volunteering their time to help them out.  There are some issues that I can't think through and was hoping to collective group might have a good idea:
1.  Who would be willing to provide the website and services?
2.  How would they authenticate a person to make sure non-veterans don't get on there?
3.  What service would be best to use for chat and possibly voice/whiteboard functionality?
4.  Any other hard issues I'm not thinking of?

I think this would be a wonderful idea for veterans/retirees, especially those of us that are 20,25, 30 years or more removed from a formal educational classroom environment, I am getting ready to complete a BA program since retirement, but it has been a struggle, and haven't had any tutors, had to muddle through on my own, with help from the wife and family as well. But this could be a very invaluable asset to veterans. Good luck and keep us posted.
