Learn a measurable skill in 3 days with an AI tutor

AI tutoring only works if you drive it. Pick a small, measurable skill — typing speed, mental maths, 20 words of a new language, a chess opening — measure your starting level, train with AI as your tutor for 3 days, and prove the improvement.

The work brief

  1. 01Pick a skill with a number attached (e.g. words-per-minute on a typing test, score on a 10-question quiz).
  2. 02Measure and screenshot your honest baseline on day 1.
  3. 03Train 20-30 minutes daily for 3 days using AI as tutor: ask it for drills, explanations, and feedback on your mistakes.
  4. 04Re-measure on the final day with the same test. Screenshot the result and keep your daily training log.

What you’ll produce

5 deliverables

Submission standard

Submit the skill, before/after screenshots, your daily log, and what the AI tutor got right and wrong. Improvement matters less than honest measurement — a small real gain beats a big fake one. Add a share link to your AI-tutor chat and make sure both screenshots show the date and the same test.

  • The skill and how you measured it

    Short answerRequired

  • Screenshot of your day-1 baseline measurement

    Day-1 screenshot must show the test site with your username/profile and the date visible.

    Image uploadRequired

  • Screenshot of your final measurement (same test)

    Final screenshot must be the SAME test, showing your username/profile and a later date.

    Image uploadRequired

  • Daily log: what you practised, what the AI suggested, what you asked it to change

    Written responseRequired

  • Where the AI tutor helped, and where it was wrong or useless

    Written responseRequired

You’ll complete these inside your private workspace.

What you must submit as proof

This brief requires evidence an AI can’t fabricate.

  • Share link to your AI-tutor conversation

    A public share link to the tutor chat spanning your three days — its timestamps should show real day-over-day practice.

    Public linkRequired

Submissions without this evidence cannot be submitted.

Protect other people in your proof. Blur faces, names, phone numbers and email addresses before you upload, and refer to anyone you worked with by role or number ("Listener 1", "the stall owner"). Your proof is only ever used to check your work — it is never published, never appears on your certificate, and is never shown in your public portfolio.

How your work is evaluated

The passing benchmark is 70/100.

Honest measurement

29%

Same test before and after, both evidenced with screenshots.

Real training

29%

The log shows 3 days of genuine practice and AI back-and-forth.

Tutor critique

14%

Specific observations about where AI tutoring works and fails.

Multi-day, consistent measurement

29%

Auto-fail if before/after aren't the same test with visible dates, if the numbers don't reconcile with the log, or the chat/log show no real multi-day gap.

How we grade your AI usage

30% of your score

Using AI is the point — it’s the skill this certificate proves. You’ll answer three short questions about how you used it: what you asked, what was wrong with its first answer, and what you changed. Specific, honest answers score high. “I pasted the brief and submitted the answer” scores near zero.
