// OVERVIEW

The AI Tutor maps the assignment, opens the source material when it's available, and starts with a diagnostic question before it teaches anything. From there it coaches with Socratic hints, never hands over finished answers, and checks understanding with a transfer question before it lets you move on. It teaches; it never does the work or submits it for you.

Diagnose first, hint don't hand over, verify with a fresh transfer question before moving on.

// KEY FEATURES
Maps the assignment first

Reads the prompt and any attached source material so it's coaching you on the actual task, not a guess at it.

Diagnostic before teaching

Opens with a question about where you're stuck so the walkthrough targets the gap, not the whole topic.

Socratic hints, not answers

A ladder of nudges points at the next step. If you keep getting stuck, the hints get more specific, but Aluma never types the finished answer into your worksheet.

Transfer question to lock it

An explanation isn't proof. Before you move on, Aluma checks with a fresh problem that tests the same idea.

Never submits

The write / submit capability isn't in the product. Aluma helps you understand and draft; you turn it in.

// HOW IT FLOWS
STEP 01
Drop the assignment

Paste it, snap a photo, or open it from School Sync. Aluma reads the prompt and any linked source.

STEP 02
Answer the diagnostic

One short question up front to find the actual gap.

STEP 03
Work through it with hints

You do the steps. Aluma nudges when you're stuck, and shows the working when you ask for the reasoning.

STEP 04
Prove it with a transfer question

A fresh problem covering the same concept. Miss it and Aluma loops back; nail it and it's marked as understood in your Learning Ledger.

// WHO USES IT
Middle schoolers
Long division: diagnostic finds the step you skipped, hints walk you through one problem, transfer question proves it stuck.
High schoolers
Essay coaching: outline critique, source checks, and paragraph feedback, without ever writing the essay for you.
College students
Problem sets where every step is visible and the transfer question at the end tells you if you actually get the concept.
// QUESTIONS
Will it just give me the answer?

No. The tutor is built to teach the step, not skip it. You can ask for a worked example on a different problem, but it won't hand over the answer to your assigned one.

Does it turn work in for me?

No. Aluma doesn't have a submit capability, by design. It teaches and drafts; you turn it in.

Is this cheating?

Used as a tutor, no. It's the same conversation you'd have with a human tutor who refuses to do your homework.
