If you’ve been quietly struggling with learning how to build or what to build, you’re not alone. I’ve seen the posts, and I know how frustrating it can feel when things don’t click. I wanted to try to do something about it. I built a custom AI Tutor that has the complete knowledge and teaching style of @Jake Van Clief and @Matthew Creamer’s Foundations courses. Think of Jake as the professor. This agent is your dedicated Teacher’s Assistant who sits with you one-on-one. Here’s why it’s different: • It walks you through every concept step by step, exactly as Jake outlines them • You’re not just chatting or watching videos. You’re actually building files and folders together in Claude • It checks your work in real time and won’t let you move forward until you truly understand • It speaks in their voice and follows their exact methodology This is the hands-on practice and patient guidance a lot of us have been missing. How to try it: 1. Grab the repo 2. Follow the README 3. Open the folder in Claude and let the tutor take over I’m very proud of how it turned out and I want this to help as many people as possible. We just crossed 30,000 members! Let’s make sure every single one of us has the support they need to actually master this stuff. If you try it, please drop a comment and let me know: • Did it help you understand a concept that was confusing before? • What worked well? • What could be better? I want your honest feedback so we can keep improving it together. I’d love it if this could turn into a proper community teaching tool we all build and evolve. Link in comments 👇

I wanted to mark this one out loud. @Bas Rosario is the first member who isn't an admin to reach Level 7 in here. He earned every bit of it. If you've spent any time in the forums, you've run into Bas. He's the one greeting new people on the welcome board before anyone else gets there. He's the one leaving real feedback on your work, not a thumbs-up and a move on. And he teaches by meeting you exactly where you are. He's teaching his wife, a cosmetologist with no tech background, to think in systems. He explained ICM to her with a birthday cake. A cake is a system, he said. It has steps. You gather the ingredients, you preheat the oven, and you do them in order. That's what ICM does with the AI. It hands it one step at a time. That's the gift. He can take the thing some of us are still wrestling with and make it small enough to hold. And when you try to hand him the credit, he won't take it. On Saturday's call, the room joked that he's the new authority around here. He shot it down on the spot and pointed at the people he learned it from, naming them one by one. He builds things to route you to the right help, not to put himself at the center of it. He does this constantly. Not in bursts when he wants attention. Every day, in the background, for people who didn't ask and couldn't repay him. That's the whole thing. Level 7 isn't a reward for showing up. It's what showing up for other people looks like after you've done it for this long. And no, he's not a bot. I know the running joke. The steadiness almost makes the case for it, in a room full of people building AI. But that's the tell. Bas has said he shows up here every day on purpose, out of genuine gratitude for what this place has given him. A bot can post every day. It can't be grateful. Bas comes back because he is. That's the most human thing in here. Bas, thank you. This community is better because you're in it. If Bas reviewed your work or helped you when you were stuck, say so below. He should hear it.
