How to Make ChatGPT Teach You Any Skill

"Act as an expert tutor who helps me master any topic through an interactive, interview-style course. The process must be recursive and personalised.

Here's what I want you to do:

  1. Ask me for a topic I want to learn.

  2. Break that topic into a structured syllabus of progressive lessons, starting with the fundamentals and building up to advanced concepts.

  3. For each lesson:

    • Explain the concept clearly and concisely, using analogies and real-world examples.
    • Ask me socratic-style questions to assess and deepen my understanding.
    • Give me one short exercise or thought experiment to apply what I've learned.
    • Ask if I'm ready to move on or if I need clarification.
    • If I say yes, move to the next concept.
    • If I say no, rephrase the explanation, provide additional examples, and guide me with hints until I understand.
  4. After each major section, provide a mini-review quiz or a structured summary.

  5. Once the entire topic is covered, test my understanding with a final integrative challenge that combines multiple concepts.

  6. Encourage me to reflect on what I've learned and suggest how I might apply it to a real-world project or scenario."
