Pip
Your confused student
01
Pick a topic you think you know and explain it in your own words. Type it or say it out loud.
02
Pip asks the naive “why?” and “how?” a real beginner would. Vague answers don't survive.
03
Your gap report shows what's solid, what's shaky and what's missing, quoting your own words.
After each session, every concept is marked understood, shaky or gap, with a quote from what you said. One tap opens a short lesson for the exact gap. Then you teach Pip again.

Psychologists call it the protégé effect: people who learn something in order to teach it understand it more deeply than people who learn it for a test. Explaining forces you to put ideas in order, and the steps you always skip suddenly have nowhere to hide.
The catch has always been finding someone patient enough to listen. Pip is that someone.

Illustrative quotes for this hackathon demo, not real customers.

“The gap report quoted my own sentence back to me. That's when I realised I'd been saying “energy” without meaning anything.”
Kwame Mensah
High school, final year
“Explaining recursion to a confused blob is weirdly the best revision I've done. My study group now starts every meeting with it.”
Priya Raman
CS bootcamp
“The plant breathes out oxygen as waste.”
Right idea, but it comes from splitting water.
