Learn Anything 🎓
Turn any topic into a real lesson — not a summary. Free, open-source, zero extra credits.
One MCP server for Claude & ChatGPT.
What a lesson contains
- Where this sits — what it is, why it's worth knowing, and the prerequisites (with the one you're most likely missing flagged)
- Intuition — the core idea in plain language, plus an analogy that maps structurally — and the exact point where the analogy stops being true
- Worked example — one concrete case with real values, every step shown (including the one it'd be tempting to call obvious)
- The precise version — the formal account, mapped line-by-line back to the intuition
- What people get wrong — real misconceptions: what people believe → why it's tempting → why it's wrong → what's true
- Check yourself — questions escalating recognize → apply → transfer, with worked answers, plus an "explain it back" task
- Make it stick — a 1 day / 1 week / 1 month spaced-repetition plan and what to learn next
Why it's actually good
Two rules make the difference:
- Simplify the wording, never the substance. A beginner lesson must leave you with a smaller true model, never a false one.
- Flag every simplification where it's made, and name the truer version — so you always know where the map ends.
Plus: it teaches your topic verbatim (not an adjacent easier one), and invents nothing — no fabricated facts, papers, names, or numbers.
How it's free
The server runs no AI. It returns a master-teacher protocol as plain text; your own Claude/ChatGPT executes it in the same turn. No API key, no second bill.
Use it
Learn Anything: how do transformers work?
Learn Anything, beginner: Bayes' theorem
Learn Anything, advanced, I know linear algebra: diffusion models
Knobs: level (beginner/intermediate/advanced) · background (what you already know) · focus
