Run a full tutoring session from diagnosis to a real mastery check
Practicing a topic broadly and closing a specific gap are different activities that feel the same in the moment.
- Outcome
- A specific, diagnosed gap, targeted practice aimed directly at it, and a real test of whether it's actually closed — not just a study session that felt productive.
- Time
- 45-75 minutes

A handful of prompts and workflows stay free for everyone — Pro unlocks the full library, including this one, plus the guided runner.
A tutoring or study session can feel productive — reading through examples, nodding along to explanations — without actually closing the specific gap that was causing trouble, because general exposure to a topic and targeted practice on the real sticking point are different activities that feel similar from the inside. This playbook runs the real sequence: diagnose the specific gap, practice targeted directly at it, then test transfer to a new problem before calling it learned.
When not to use this
If you're encountering a topic for the first time with no specific stuck point yet, general exposure is the right move first — this is for when you already know something specific isn't clicking.
Did this work?
You can solve a new problem of the same type without help, not just feel like the topic makes more sense than before.
