Resumen
If you already built an AI tutor that covers speaking, listening, reading, and writing, the next move is turning your Platzi English courses into live practice sessions. This is for learners who want to stop passively watching classes and start drilling every skill with feedback at their own level.
The idea is simple: take the summary of any class you are studying, feed it to your tutor, and let it run a structured practice built around what you just learned.
How do I turn a Platzi class into a practice session?
The workflow starts inside the course you are taking. In the example, Jess uses Curso de inglés intermedio B1: Expresiones de tiempo y cantidad and grabs the class summary directly from the lesson [00:30].
Here is the practical sequence:
- Open the class you are currently studying.
- Copy the class summary from that lesson.
- Paste it into Claude or into your project.
- Add the practice prompt before the summary.
- Run it and let the tutor guide you.
With Claude specifically, you do not need to leave blank spaces before pasting, but the logic is the same: the prompt comes first, then the content you want to practice.
Can I practice a whole course instead of one class? Yes. You can copy all the class summaries from a course and paste them together. For focused practice, just use one summary at a time.
What does the practice prompt actually do?
The prompt is two pages long, and the full version lives in the resources section so you can copy it yourself [01:30]. Reading it before running it is a good habit, because it tells you exactly how your tutor will behave.
Once it reads the summary, the prompt instructs the tutor to:
- Confirm in one line what the class is about.
- Run a practice session in four parts: speaking, listening, reading, and writing.
- Keep every task at your current level.
- Never do the tasks for you, and simplify if you get stuck.
- End by telling you which of the four parts were the hardest and what to practice next.
That last step is what makes it feel like real tutoring. Instead of a flat score, you get a clear signal about where your weak spots are and a next action.
How do I use voice and chat during practice?
When the speaking section starts, Jess uses a voice note to dictate, which the tutor turns into text before moving forward [02:50]. For the listening part, you switch on the actual chat mode and work through it piece by piece.
So you are not stuck with one input method. Speaking leans on voice dictation, listening uses chat mode, and you progress through each skill in order.
How does the tutor keep practice at my level? It reads the class summary first, then calibrates every task to your level and simplifies on the spot if you get stuck, instead of jumping ahead.
Now it is your turn. Pick the course you are studying, choose the class, classes, or module you want to drill more, and follow the prompt.
Can this prompt become a reusable skill?
Yes, and this is where it gets interesting. Earlier you built a separate skill for each English area: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. This course-practice prompt can follow the exact same process and become its own skill [04:00].
You can name it course practice skill or anything you want, then reuse it anytime without rebuilding the prompt. The point is repeatability: once it is a skill, practicing any Platzi class is a one-click habit.
What is a skill in this tutor setup? It is a saved, reusable instruction set inside your project. Instead of pasting a long prompt every time, you call the skill and it runs the same behavior consistently.
Why does this tutor go beyond English?
Across the whole course you moved from simple fast feedback on a text to a full AI agent and tutor that helps you learn English. And that progression does not have to stop at language [04:30].
The same concepts apply to anything you want to learn. As long as you use the project, you can create your own skills and modify them however you want, building a tutor for any subject.
That is the real takeaway: you did not just build an English helper, you built a repeatable method for self-directed learning. The tutor can accompany your entire English journey with Platzi English Academy, and the same blueprint stretches far past it.
