I had an educational experience yesterday, remotely. Working via a shared tmux session while talking via google hangouts - it was a troubleshoot but I was able to observe the way of thinking, the work-until-you-get-the-bug-down mentality along with some nice tricks.
The good thing was that I was able to follow, the bad thing is that it was impossible to grasp everything at once. Having worked with different people in many jobs, my lead engineer yesterday made me feel way more comfortable than people I've known since childhood.
So, today there are tools (share-screens, tmux sessions, you-name-it) to educate someone remotely as long as we're talking about IT-related jobs. The most important thing is for the lead engineer to be communicative and open to Q & A sessions no matter how stupid the question might seem and the new entrance to put up the hours and get up to speed ASAP.
