TEd, on March 12th, at the start of our physical isolation, I posted about Jitsi. I have been using it quite successfully to run my classes and my chess club, with up to 13 people at a time. I have had up to 13 people with no trouble, although I always decrease my video quality to low-def. The problems are not with jitsi, but rather with network load at peak times. And the startup is so trivial: you can just send out a URL like: https://meet.jit.si/WorkWithTed and tell people to click on it. Their browser will ask for permission to use camera and mic. No setup, no accounts, just go. There's also an android app available on f-droid; seems to work quite well. And it's free (as in freedom) softare. You can then share windows, so they can show you what they're doing and you can see what fails. Or they can point their phone at their screen :-) If you want to actually do stuff on their machine you'll need to go a bit farther - it's hard to ssh in to a typical home network 'cause the owner would have to set up forwarding of port 22, but you can have them ssh in to a common server opening a reverse port.
