What is Synthesis Tutor?

Synthesis Tutor is an AI-powered tutoring tool designed to help children learn mathematics and problem-solving skills. The tutor works by guiding students through problems step-by-step rather than simply providing answers, encouraging them to understand the underlying concepts and reasoning. It adapts to each child's learning pace and identifies areas where they need additional support. The tool is free to use, making it accessible to families regardless of budget. It's particularly useful for children who benefit from one-on-one instruction or who need extra practice outside of school hours.
