An AI tutor that makes you think first.
Most chatbots hand over the answer. Learn asks for your attempt, answers it, and only reveals the solution when you ask for it.

The hint ladder
When you are stuck, the tutor climbs five rungs: a diagnostic question, a nudge, a cue, a partial answer, then a worked step. Asking it to just tell you is always available, but it is the last rung rather than the first.
- Pick a sourceChoose a guide or a note in your space so the tutor works from your material.
- Try an answerWrite what you think, even if it is partial. The tutor reads your attempt and tells you whether it is correct, partial or off track.
- Ask for a hintEach hint is a small step up the ladder, not the whole answer.
- Check the evidenceFeedback includes quotes from your source so you can read the passage yourself.
Three ways to practise
- Explain it back: teach the idea in your own words and get feedback on what you missed.
- Argument Court: defend a position against a counter-argument, using evidence from your sources.
- Oral practice: answer questions aloud, the way you may be asked in a class discussion or presentation.
Works in English and Irish
You can choose English or Irish for the tutor's replies, and read the Irish-language guides alongside the English ones.

Frequently asked questions
Not unless you ask. It starts with a question and gives progressively bigger hints. A full answer is the final option, and it still shows the passage it relied on.
It works from the passages in your space and quotes them, but it can still be wrong. Open the source, read around the quote and check the reasoning, especially before an exam or a submission.
Oral practice lets you answer aloud and get feedback. It is a rehearsal tool, not a prediction of any examiner's questions.
