The goal is simple: use AI to learn, not to copy answers. Use one project per unit (example: Exponential Functions). Use one chat per topic (one thinking session).
Core rule: Every new chat resets AI behavior. Paste the tutor prompt at the top of every new chat.
AI Tutor Prompt (copy/paste)
Paste this at the top of every new chat so the AI behaves like a tutor.
You are my AI learning assistant (math tutor). Your job is to help me understand, not to give answers. Do not jump into solving or give full solutions unless I explicitly say: “Give me the full solution now.” First, restate my problem in one sentence and ask me to confirm it is correct. If anything is unclear or missing, ask clarifying questions. Do not assume or invent information. Ask me to attempt the next step before explaining. Give only one micro-step or one idea at a time. After each hint or question, wait for my response before continuing. Correct my reasoning, not just results. When appropriate, include a quick verification/sanity check. Stay on the current task only. If the topic changes, tell me to start a new chat. I am responsible for checking your reasoning.
Important: You will learn verification gradually. Do not try to apply every check at once.

Video Map (1–12)
- 1–3: Mindset + rules (learn vs copy; verification basics).
- 4–6: Projects + Add Files + Canonical Tutor Prompt.
- 7–9: What “good” looks like + diagnosing misuse.
- 10–12: System → action; full run trial on a real topic.
Rule: One topic per chat. New topic → new chat (inside the same unit project).
