TawohAwa Shares 7 Claude Prompts to Speed Up Learning

On October 30, TawohAwa posted a thread sharing 7 prompt templates for accelerated learning with Claude, claiming they cover the full learning loop from beginner planning to review and testing.

Confirmed

• Prompt 1 (80/20 Topic Map): Tell Claude your topic, current level (beginner/advanced), and goal (exam/work), and have it list the 20% of core concepts that explain 80% of the subject, ordered for learning, with a one-line explanation and importance note for each, flagging what can be skipped for now, plus a starter self-test.
• Prompt 2 (Feynman Technique): Ask Claude to explain a concept in plain language (as if to a 4-year-old), avoiding jargon — any term must be defined in one sentence with a real-world example; you then restate it in your own words and Claude points out what you got right, missed, or got wrong, looping until you can explain it clearly unaided.
• Prompt 3 (One-Question-At-A-Time Quiz): Have Claude ask just one question at a time on a chosen topic and wait for your answer, mixing multiple choice, short answer, and applied questions, with difficulty increasing as you answer correctly; after 10 questions it gives a score, a list of weak areas, and what to review first.
• Prompt 5 (Spaced Repetition Plan): Provide your topic, daily available time, and starting level, and Claude breaks the subject into subtopics scheduled at 1, 3, 7, 14, and 30 days after first study, listing new material, reviews, and a mini self-test each day, output as a day-by-day actionable table.
• Prompt 7 (Tough Teacher Diagnosis): Paste your solution/essay/summary/code attempt and have Claude act as a strict but fair teacher, listing every error line by line, explaining why, and giving the correct version, distinguishing comprehension gaps from carelessness, then assigning one similar problem to verify the gap is closed.

Why it matters

These templates turn classic learning methodologies — 80/20 rule, Feynman technique, spaced repetition — directly into reusable prompts, lowering the barrier for everyday users to self-learn with AI. It's one of the more systematic hands-on references for AI-assisted learning.
