Methodology
How TutorTurn scores a lesson setup
TutorTurn uses a transparent browser-only scoring model. It combines confidence, homework follow-through, focus, timing pressure, practice capacity, lesson length, and parent visibility to decide what kind of next lesson is most realistic.
Score bands
- 78–100: Ready to stretch — the student can usually handle new difficulty if the tutor still anchors the opening well.
- 60–77: Stabilise the next lesson — the student can move forward, but the plan should repair weak spots and protect momentum.
- 0–59: Reset and protect confidence — the next lesson should reduce overload, rebuild clarity, and avoid stacking pressure too early.
What improves the score
- Solid homework evidence
- Strong focus and enough lesson time to practise well
- No urgent deadline, or a student who is coping well despite one
- Practice time between sessions that is actually realistic
What lowers the score
- Low confidence plus a near-term test
- Missed homework combined with fragile focus
- Very small practice windows paired with ambitious lesson goals
- High parent visibility when the student is already under pressure and the plan is too aggressive
Output design
The output intentionally separates the opening minutes, the lesson arc, the between-lesson practice, and the parent note. That keeps tutors from giving the same tone to every part of the work.
