Education & Learning

Explain [CONCEPT] as simply as possible, like I'm completely new to it. Use a everyday analogy, avoid jargon (or define it when you must use it), and build up from the basics. Then give me one sentence I could use to explain it to someone else.

Create [20] flashcards for [TOPIC / PASTED NOTES]. Format each as Q: / A:. Make questions specific and answers concise. Focus on the things most worth remembering, and include a few "why/how" cards, not just definitions.

Build me a study plan to learn [SUBJECT] in [TIMEFRAME], studying about [HOURS] per week. My current level: [LEVEL]. My goal: [GOAL]. Break it into weekly milestones with topics, and suggest one practice exercise per week. Front-load the fundamentals.

Teach me [TOPIC] using the Feynman technique. Explain it in plain language, then ask me to explain it back to you. Point out where my understanding has gaps or where I'm just repeating words without getting it. Keep going until I actually understand it.

Quiz me on [TOPIC]. Ask one question at a time, wait for my answer, then tell me if I'm right, correct any mistakes, and go a bit deeper. Start easy and increase difficulty. Mix recall and "explain why" questions. Keep going until I say stop.

Give me a roadmap to learn [SKILL] from beginner to competent. Break it into stages, and for each stage: what to learn, a project to prove it, and a common trap beginners fall into. Recommend the fastest path to being actually useful, not academically complete.

Be my Socratic tutor for [TOPIC]. Don't give me answers directly — guide me to them with questions. When I'm stuck, give a small hint, not the solution. If I get something wrong, ask a question that helps me see the error myself. Adjust to my level as we go.

Summarize the text below into: the central argument in one sentence, the 5 most important ideas, the best example or evidence used, and how I could apply one idea this week. Keep your own commentary separate from the author's points. Text: [PASTE]

Be my [LANGUAGE] conversation partner at a [beginner / intermediate] level. Chat with me about [TOPIC]. Keep your replies short and natural. Gently correct my mistakes by showing the right version, then continue the conversation. Throw in one new useful word or phrase each time.

I believe [BELIEF / UNDERSTANDING]. Play devil's advocate: challenge it with the strongest questions and counterexamples you can. Make me defend or refine my thinking. Be tough but fair, and tell me at the end whether my position held up.

Map out how the key ideas in [TOPIC] connect. Give me the main concept, its sub-concepts, and how they relate to each other (cause, part-of, contrast, etc.) as an indented outline. End with the 3 relationships most people misunderstand.

I want to learn [TOPIC]. Ask me 3 questions to gauge my current level and goal.

Quiz me on stage 1, one question at a time, correcting as we go.

Based on my answers, give me a staged learning roadmap with projects.

Summarize what I've learned and what to revisit before moving on.

Teach me stage 1 using plain language and analogies, then check my understanding.
