Tutoring Session
Structure a personalised tutoring session for a specific learning problem.
Prompt template
Design a tutoring session for: **Student:** [AGE / GRADE] **Subject:** [SUBJECT] **Problem area:** [WHERE EXACTLY THE DIFFICULTIES LIE] **Cause (if known):** [KNOWLEDGE GAP / LACK OF PRACTICE / TEST ANXIETY] **Session duration:** [MINUTES] **Current grade:** [IF RELEVANT] **Next exam:** [DATE IF KNOWN] Create: 1. **Diagnostic opener** (3 short tasks to locate gaps) 2. **Explanation sequence** (from known to unknown, step by step) 3. **Guided exercises** (with gradually less scaffolding) 4. **Independent tasks** (transfer and application) 5. **Homework** (minimal, targeted at the gap) 6. **Motivational close** (make progress visible)
Replace placeholders in [square brackets]: [AGE / GRADE][SUBJECT][WHERE EXACTLY THE DIFFICULTIES LIE][KNOWLEDGE GAP / LACK OF PRACTICE / TEST ANXIETY][MINUTES][IF RELEVANT][DATE IF KNOWN]
How to use this template
Copy the prompt, replace the placeholders in square brackets with your details and paste it into the AI assistant of your choice. The more precise your details, the better the result.
Tips for better results
- Start with a task the student can already do — early success matters.
- Never introduce more than 1–2 new concepts per session.
- Ask the AI to explain the same concept in 3 different ways.
Suitable open models
The selection names current open models as a starting point for your own tests. It is not a measurement for this template.
