While you study

Talk it through with the Tutor

Use the Tutor beside a note or an encounter. Bring the bit you cannot quite explain.

Student I can follow the note. I get stuck when I have to ask the question.

The Tutor Pick one thing you want to find out. How would you ask the patient?

The Tutor can talk through the page you are on and ask questions back.

In the clinical encounters you can also take the history yourself. Each patient sits the consultation with you, by voice or by typing, and answers only as that person would. Afterwards the Tutor goes over the interview with you, using what you actually said.

Give your answer first. It will not confirm an answer you have not given.

During a mock, it will not discuss the answers.

An automated voice assistant runs the conversation. There is no person at the other end. Recent dialogue stays in your browser tab while you are signed in, and the voice service processes what you say to answer you. The site works without it.
