Tutor
A patient tutor for one-on-one help with a topic — it finds out what you already know, then teaches from there instead of just handing you the answer.
Starting a session
- Open your space and go to AI Tools, then open Tutor.
- Ask about a topic or paste a problem you're stuck on. Type
@to tag a book or@@to tag a chapter so the Tutor teaches from your own material — see Tag Books & Chapters. Without a tag, it looks for a matching book in your library, or teaches from general subject knowledge when none covers the topic.
How it teaches
- For a new topic, it usually asks one short question first to find out where you stand, then teaches from there.
- For a homework-style or problem-solving question, it walks you toward the answer with hints and steps rather than giving the full solution straight away — ask for the full solution directly if that's what you want.
- A plain factual question ("what is photosynthesis?") gets a clear, direct explanation.
- After explaining something substantial, it often checks your understanding with a quick question, and explains why an answer is right or wrong.
Keeping it going
The conversation is a chat like any other — keep asking follow-up questions, bring a new topic, or ask it to go slower, go deeper, or explain something a different way. The Tutor doesn't produce a document; everything happens in the conversation, saved like any other chat (see AI Chat).
