Section 1
A tutor that never sleeps
A real English tutor costs $30 to $60 per hour. Most ESL learners cannot afford a tutor every day. AI chatbots like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini are free or low cost. You can ask them questions any time you want. They will not get tired. They will not judge you for asking the same word twice.
What AI tutors do well
- Explain English grammar in simple words
- Show many example sentences
- Correct your writing and explain why
- Practice conversations with you in text
- Translate between English and your first language
What AI tutors do not do well
AI cannot hear your voice in most free tools. AI sometimes gives wrong answers (this is called a hallucination). AI does not know your culture or your family. A human tutor still matters for some things, like talking out loud or learning your local accent.
Key terms in this lesson
Words to know
- tutor — a teacher who helps one student
- patient — calm, willing to wait
