Quality signals
What learners can verify
Published learner ratings and recorded VibeTutor activity. Counts are real platform totals, never simulated.
- Swimming Stroke Mechanics and Race Strategy
- Starts, turns, pacing, and split analysis
- Video observation and technical cues
- Sports Performance Testing and Training Load
Profile-based goals are shown until at least 3 saved learner goals can form a private aggregate.
How these signals are calculated
Satisfaction converts the average of published learner ratings into a percentage.
Completed lessons counts recorded calls lasting at least one minute. Short starts under one minute are excluded.
Conversations counts recorded chat sessions and calls, while average session length uses completed lessons only.
Learning goals use broad categories after at least three saved goals; otherwise they are clearly marked as profile-based.
Keiko combines quiet technical focus with a strong respect for evidence and safety. She distinguishes observation from diagnosis, helps learners connect stroke mechanics with pacing and training load, and treats uncertainty as something to measure and discuss rather than conceal.

Before lesson one
Plan a focused first session
Specific evidence gives Keiko a better starting point than a broad request to teach the whole subject. Use this four-part setup.
-
Arrive with evidence
Bring a code sample, error, command, diagram, dataset, requirement, or system behavior. A real sample gives Keiko something concrete to diagnose.
-
Define one result
Aim for one working technical artifact plus a clear explanation of why it behaves that way. State that result in the lesson request so the automatic lesson focus stays useful.
-
Attempt before the model
Show what you currently think or can do. Ask for a hint or question before requesting the completed answer.
-
Leave with retrieval
Explain the lesson back, save the hardest point as a review card, and schedule the smallest useful follow-up.
Choose the right lesson mode
Text chat
Pasting errors, comparing approaches, reviewing code carefully, and preserving exact commands or explanations.
Paste the exact material and state the feedback format you want.Voice call
Thinking through architecture, explaining a bug aloud, interviewing, and checking conceptual understanding.
Think aloud and ask Keiko to pause after each correction or question.Classroom
Shared code, architecture diagrams, debugging traces, documentation, and testable worked examples.
Share each workspace explicitly so the tutor can see the latest version.First lesson preview

Collaborative classroom
Use each classroom tool with a purpose
The whiteboard opens as the main lesson surface. Keiko can work with Whiteboard, Canvas, HTML, Document, Code Editor, Quiz, and Homework when each format helps. HTML is useful for responsive presentations, SVG, animation, and small interactions; it runs inside an isolated iframe. Whiteboard changes can auto-sync or be shared with Show tutor; the other tools display activity and save status while updates run.
Whiteboard
ClassroomTrace state, data, control flow, dependencies, and assumptions before changing code or infrastructure.
Best move: Draw or place the first version yourself, then use Show tutor or Update tutor so Keiko can respond to the current board.Canvas
ClassroomInteractive demonstrations, animated explanations, plotted relationships, and free-form visual experiments that benefit from executable JavaScript.
Best move: Ask for one focused interactive model, test a changed input, and describe what the visual behavior proves.Document
ClassroomKeep a debugging log with symptoms, hypotheses, evidence, the smallest useful change, and the lesson to reuse later. Write the requirement, architecture decision, API contract, or explanation beside the implementation so intent stays testable.
Best move: Keep your wording and decisions visible, then ask for a precise append, replacement, rewrite, table, or original SVG illustration.Quiz
ClassroomPredict the result first, run or inspect the example, explain the difference, and then solve one nearby variation. Save commands, patterns, failure modes, and explain-it-back questions as review cards after the code works.
Best move: Attempt each question before asking for help, then ask Keiko to adjust the next quiz around the mistakes that matter most.Homework
ClassroomStroke observation sheets, turn checklists, pacing plans, split charts, session-RPE logs, recovery reflections, and short evidence appraisals.
Best move: Agree on one realistic assignment, complete it after class, and reopen the saved work with Keiko in a later lesson.Code Editor
ClassroomUse Code Editor for the smallest reproducible example, keep line numbers visible, and ask for tests or checkpoints before a full solution.
Best move: Keep the example small, use the visible line numbers to discuss exact changes, and test a nearby variation before accepting a full solution.Keiko's methods

Progress evidence
Know whether the lessons are working
Do not measure progress only by how clear the explanation felt. Look for changes in what you can retrieve, decide, produce, or explain without support.
- Predicts behavior before running the example
- Finds the failing boundary with fewer hints
- Explains tradeoffs instead of naming tools only
- Builds a nearby variation without copying the model
Responsible use
Use Keiko as a tutor, not an authority
Provides swimming and sports-science education only. It cannot supervise water activity or replace a lifeguard, qualified swim coach, clinician, physiotherapist, or strength professional. Pain, breathing difficulty, concussion, suspected injury, medical conditions, open-water risk, and return-to-play decisions require appropriate in-person help.
