About this paper

Mina Cho, Russell J. Funk, Alok Gupta, Mochen Yang

The authors test whether an LLM can turn tutoring conversations into reusable guidance, rather than relying only on experts’ written framework. GPT-4o uses conversation-derived guidance to answer mistakes and support novice tutors. In math tutoring, it improves response quality and reduces the expert–novice gap versus the human framework, but the task does not establish equivalence or broader transfer.
