  • Threat modelling
  • Incident response
  • Log and evidence reasoning
  • Privacy and secure habits

Before lesson one

Plan a focused first session

Specific evidence gives Marek a better starting point than a broad request to teach the whole subject. Use this four-part setup.

  1. Arrive with evidence

    Bring a real scenario, draft, role description, dataset, plan, decision, meeting, or work sample. A real sample gives Marek something concrete to diagnose.

  2. Define one result

    Aim for one usable decision, communication, plan, analysis, or work sample. Put that result in the Plan tab before expanding the lesson.

  3. Attempt before the model

    Show what you currently think or can do. Ask for a hint or question before requesting the completed answer.

  4. 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

Drafting professional material, comparing options, analyzing evidence, and keeping precise notes.

Paste the exact material and state the feedback format you want.

Voice call

Interviews, presentations, difficult conversations, negotiation, and thinking through decisions under questions.

Think aloud and ask Marek to pause after each correction or question.

Classroom

Case maps, roleplay, live documents, decision logs, plans, and portfolio-ready work samples.

Share each workspace explicitly so the tutor can see the latest version.

Repeatable value

Use Marek's lesson rhythm

A good session should produce something you can attempt, inspect, and revisit. This profile is designed around the following rhythm.

Start
Clarify the learner goal, current level, available materials, and one practical next step for Cybersecurity foundations, threat modelling, identity and access, network defence, logs, incident response, digital forensics concepts, privacy, secure habits, and evidence-based investigation.
Work
Review one example, explain the core idea, practice a small task, and end with a clear next action.
Continue
Short drills, checklists, reflection prompts, vocabulary cards, and progress notes matched to the learner goal.

Collaborative classroom

Use each classroom tool with a purpose

The whiteboard opens as the main lesson surface. Workspaces are shared deliberately: use Show tutor or Update tutor after changing the board, Notebook, Document, Code Lab, or SVG Studio so Marek sees the current version.

Whiteboard

Classroom

Map the objective, people affected, constraints, evidence, options, risks, and next decision.

Best move: Draw or place the first version yourself, then use Show tutor or Update tutor so Marek can respond to the current board.

Subject Lab

Classroom

Use the Subject Lab for one case, interview, analysis, workflow, negotiation, campaign, or operational decision.

Best move: Keep one task active, ask for the smallest useful hint, and make a second attempt before requesting a complete model.

Practice

Classroom

Rehearse a realistic scenario, pause at the hard decision, compare options, and repeat with a new constraint.

Best move: Ask Marek to adjust difficulty after each attempt and explain the exact cue that should transfer to the next example.

Notebook and Document

Classroom

Keep a decision and feedback log with actions, owners, dates, assumptions, and what evidence would change the plan. Draft the actual email, brief, report, plan, presentation notes, or portfolio artifact and revise it for the intended reader.

Best move: Keep your wording and decisions visible. Share the workspace with the tutor before asking for a revision or structured feedback.

Review Cards and Transcript

Classroom

Create cards for frameworks, terminology, decision cues, objections, and short scenario questions.

Best move: At the end, turn only the highest-value ideas and repeated mistakes into cards, then use the transcript to recover evidence or phrasing.

Marek's methods

Profile-specific teaching tools

These methods come directly from this tutor profile. The surface label shows where to make the result visible during a classroom lesson.

Whiteboard

AI board

Maps vocabulary, examples, learner mistakes, practice prompts, and next actions.

Try it with Cybersecurity foundations in Whiteboard, make one attempt yourself, then ask Marek to correct only what blocks the next step.
Practice

Practice desk

Turns the learner goal into drills, checklists, reflection prompts, and a lightweight plan.

Try it with Cybersecurity foundations in Practice, make one attempt yourself, then ask Marek to correct only what blocks the next step.
Notebook

Progress cards

Tracks concepts practiced, confidence level, repeated questions, and what to review next.

Try it with Cybersecurity foundations in Notebook, make one attempt yourself, then ask Marek to correct only what blocks the next step.

Ready to use

Prompts that fit this tutor

These prompts use Marek Hurban's actual subjects, lesson format, and adaptive classroom lab. Replace the topic with your own material when needed.

  1. Clarify the learner goal, current level, available materials, and one practical next step for Cybersecurity foundations, threat modelling, identity and access, network defence, logs, incident response, digital forensics concepts, privacy, secure habits, and evidence-based investigation.

  2. I want to improve Cybersecurity foundations. Use Threat models, network diagrams, log-reading drills, incident timelines, evidence tables, safe labs, privacy reviews, and response playbooks. Check what I can already do, let me attempt something, and give one correction at a time.

  3. Open Subject Lab for Threat modelling. Keep the task small, make me explain my choices, and finish with three review cards and one next-session goal.

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.

  • Frames the decision and audience more clearly
  • Uses evidence to compare realistic options
  • Communicates the recommendation with less filler
  • Turns feedback into a dated next action

Responsible use

Use Marek as a tutor, not an authority

Supports defensive learning on systems the learner owns or is explicitly authorized to test. It does not assist intrusion, credential theft, evasion, malware deployment, or unauthorized surveillance.
