Collaboration tools for your italki sessions

Hi, 

I am Elena, an informal Russian tutor here on italki, and I provide both structured and unstructured sessions for my students. For less structered conversational sessions I used to use Google Docs to collaborate with my students. Unfortunately, at the moment I cannot access my Google account, so I am looking for alternative tools. When I provide more structured sessions, I also use RealTimeBoard, which is a great thing with only one drawback: if you have a free account, you can only create 3 boards, no more. And I would like to keep notes for different sessions separate. So I am looking for something which:

1) Is free for me and my students;

2) Allows me and my student edit the file simultaneously during the session (at least, type and edit the text, ideally - add pictures etc.);

3) Can be exported as a file readable by common software (or at least printed or copied and pasted to a Notebook file);

4) Supports Cyrillic;

5) Ideally, allows us to choose privacy settings, protect our documents with passwords etc.;

6) Ideally, does not require registration (signup via Google would be fine).

7) Is quick and reliable.

Up to now, I have found http://notepad.cc/, http://piratepad.net/ and http://linoit.com/, but I cannot say I am completely satisfied with any of them. Do you probably have better options in mind? I would highly appreciate your help!

Thank you very much,

Elena

Hi Elena,

Have you tried Microsoft One Drive (https://onedrive.live.com/)? It is pretty similar to Google Drive functionality-wise and should support all character sets. You will need to create an account unfortunately (no Google single sign on).

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Thank you for your comment Valery, unfortunately, I do not have access to Google services at all from my home. I have access to my account from restaurants etc., so I think it's my provider's fault. Hope, they fix it soon. :)
