In 1984 the researcher Benjamin Bloom found that students taught one-on-one by a tutor scored better than 98% of students in a normal class. Tutors cost too much for most people. This free, open-source Claude Code skill (past 300 GitHub stars) plays that tutor for any subject you pick.

Here's what it does, how to install it, and what to say first.

What it does

  • Writes your course plan (a syllabus) for any topic, at simple, standard or deep depth.
  • Teaches one lesson at a time, with thought questions at the end of each.
  • Reads your notes: mark anything you don't get with ??? and it answers in the next lesson.
  • Builds every new lesson around the gaps it saw in your last one.
  • Ends with an evaluation and a summary once you have checked off every item in the plan.
  • Comes with extra learning skills: learn-feynman (explain it back), learn-graph (a map of a whole field), learn-crossover (learn through what you already know) and more.
