Project

Stand-alone, LLM-based subject tutor. The first version is Calculus A/B or Calc 101/201. The code above is the initial web page with info, costs, etc.

NOTE

This project was halted. (1) The LLMs at the time were not good enough at Calculus math (mid-70's %) to be a reliable tutor. And (2) before they became good enough most major LLMs had released education-focused variants for tutoring, etc.

Needs

• Connect to Claude/OpenAI for LLM
• Prompt controls (ex: don't answer problems before working them through together)
• Login
• Payment mechanism, and tracking for usage-based plans

Updates

I've implemented an AI tutoring system that connects to either OpenAI or Anthropic's APIs. The solution includes:

• An AI service that handles API connections to both providers
• A prompt engineering utility with carefully crafted guidelines for tutoring
• Settings UI for configuring your preferred AI provider
• Updated Dashboard component to integrate with the AI service

The system prompt follows specific requirements, ensuring the AI tutor will:

• Guide students through learning rather than providing answers
• Use the Socratic method to help students discover solutions themselves
• Only confirm correctness after students attempt solutions
• Provide constructive feedback when students make errors

Note that we need to provide our API key through the settings interface in the dashboard. (Or require the user to do so.)
