The goal of the work presented in this paper is to develop a 3D web based online tutoring system that enhances the motivation and cognitive development of students. To achieve this, a virtual assistant will be integrated to the e-learning platform; this 3D modeled e-tutor will evaluate each student individually, it will react to their learning progress by empathetic gestures and it will guide them through the lectures according to their personal needs. The accomplishment of these tasks will imply a thorough study of the latest techniques on artificial intelligence, multi-agent architectures and their representation by means of 3D emotional avatars.
