This research starts from "Reflections of an English Tutor" in an online language learning program. In that report, the tutor found that his journal entries highlight three interrelated areas in on-line language learning program: (1) relationship building, (2) reflective practice, and (3) the promotion of independence, while investigating reflective journal writing by an on-line tutor working with a group of Chinese learners of English.

As a Chinese teacher of English, the author, in the second part, gives an interpretation for the breakages between the teacher and his students from the perspective of culture difference.

In the concluding part, the author argues that PRC students need re-socialization in digital classrooms, and suggests tips for PRC students’ re-socialization in virtual classrooms, i.e., how to learn in an asynchronous computer-mediated communication setting with an English tutor.
