Before and after
I asked “What is an API?” for a test reader who owns three dental clinics. A normal chat answered with words like HTTP and JSON.
With the tutor box, Claude first asked about the reader’s work. Then it wrote:
An API is a menu of requests one piece of software lets another piece make, so they can work together without you in the middle.
Think of your front desk. A patient asks, “Do you have a 3pm slot?” Your receptionist checks the calendar and answers. ... An API is the receptionist for software.
Each lesson ends with 3 check questions and a lesson card to save. Three days later, a second box quizzes you on your cards. Pair it with Claude Memory, so the tutor knows your job from the first lesson.
