Hello,

I have tutoring site and I need to use ACE code editor as real time collaborative code editing between tutor and student. So, How can I do this stuff?

Hi,
This isn't trivial to do, but there are libraries helping to do it
see http://sharejs.org/ https://togetherjs.com/

also search "operational transformation" for more information on how
to implement it yourself

Neutron Drive already does this and uses ACE: https://www.neutrondrive.com/

Its free for a while, then its stupid cheap ($8 a year). However, I found that it is rather buggy.

You can check out Editey:
It is based on ACE and uses Google Drive for realtime collaboration including mutli-selection, multi-cursors etc.

Good joke.
For a novice, that may take a year.
