Tutor

One table, two chairs, and the exact moment something clicks.

Why the human is the point

Every learner gets stuck in their own particular way, and no curriculum ever wrote itself around one kid's particular wall. A tutor sits close enough to see the exact brick. They try the sideways explanation, catch the flicker of almost-there, and push one more inch. The click, when it comes, happens between two people at one table. That click is the win. Everything else is homework.
