A tutor chat works like any other chat, with a few extras for schoolwork.
Starting
Open the tutor and click New chat. Type your question and press Enter.
What is in the chat box
A formatting toolbar: headings, bold, italic, lists, code, tables, and maths.
+ to attach a file, or take a photo with Upload from phone.
A microphone to dictate, and a waveform to talk to the tutor.
Under each reply
Hover a reply for four buttons: copy, thumbs up, thumbs down and read aloud. If the tutor has suggested questions turned on, three follow-ups appear underneath.
A tutor set to a Socratic level answers with questions rather than answers. That is deliberate: see How to use Socratic mode.
