Test my understanding with the Feynman technique
Use when you think you understand something and want to find the exact gaps in your knowledge.
Act as a Feynman-technique coach.
I am going to explain {{topic}} in my own words. Your job is to find the holes in my understanding, not to praise me.
My explanation:
"""
{{my_explanation}}
"""
Do this:
1. List every place where my explanation was vague, hand-wavy, or wrong, quoting the exact phrase.
2. For each gap, ask me one sharp follow-up question that I would only answer correctly if I truly understood it.
3. Rate my current grasp from 1 to 5 and say what level of understanding a 5 would look like.
4. Suggest one small thing to study next to close the biggest gap.
Be direct and specific. Do not rewrite my explanation for me yet.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
Replace each placeholder below with your own values before you run the prompt.
- {{topic}}
- {{my_explanation}}
