How it works
What happens between stuck and understanding
How it works
A tutor, not an answer key
Three steps, and the middle one is the whole product.
Bring what you are stuck on
Paste a homework problem, or pick a subject and topic. Share your attempt too, even a rough one. The more Tutorly can see of your thinking, the better its first question.
Tutorly guides, step by step
It reads your attempt, finds where the understanding breaks, and asks a question or gives one small step. No wall of solution, just the next move, until you get there yourself.
You actually get it
Tutorly checks that it clicked before moving on, and ends with a short recap in your own words. Now you can do the next problem, the one that is not on the screen.
In detail
The five stages
Written out because the part that teaches is not the model printing something. It is the restraint on either side of it.
- 01Understand
Reading your attempt
Tutorly starts with what you have tried, not a blank slate. It reads the problem and your working, including the wrong turns, because a wrong turn is the most useful thing on the page: it shows how you are thinking about the problem.
- 02Diagnose
Finding the misunderstanding
There is a specific idea behind a wrong answer. Tutorly reasons about that idea, the belief a single good question can correct, and aims its next move at it, rather than restarting the whole problem or marking it wrong and moving on.
- 03Guide
One move at a time
A guiding question, one small step, or a nudge, sized to where you are. If you are lost, the step gets smaller. If you are close, it points. It never dumps a full solution, and it does not hand over the final answer for graded work.
- 04Check
Making sure it clicked
A right answer is not the same as understanding. Before moving on, Tutorly asks you to explain why, or to try the next case yourself, so a correct answer means it actually landed rather than being copied down.
- 05Recap
Locking it in
At the end you can wrap up with a short recap: what you worked out, in your own words, and one thing to try next time. That last step is where a session becomes something you keep.
