It acts like a personal learning companion, breaking down problems step-by-step and using questions, visuals, and even quizzes to help you build a deeper understanding.
With the back-to-school season just around the corner, Google has also extended its educational offer for the AI Pro plan through October. It's clear the education market is a space everyone is competing for.
@zaczuo Interesting to see how quickly AI tools are evolving into full-on learning companions. 📚 With both ChatGPT and Gemini pushing guided learning, the “AI tutor” era might be arriving faster than we thought.
@barrett_hayes thanks for asking - it’s not a fixed path. The guidance adapts based on how you're engaging with the topic. We'd love to hear any feedback you have, so please keep it coming!
@sage_turner That’s completely a valid point, Sage. But we know in many cases that knowing how to arrive at an answer is more critical than the answer itself.
This core belief is why we support different learning styles and are actively building paths for every type of learner - from those who want a quick, direct answer to those who need the deep dive. Hope you will give guided learning a try!
Love that you’re actually helping ppl *understand* stuff, not just giving quick answers—so needed tbh! This is the kind of upgrade I’ve been waiting for, fr.

Hi everyone!
Following ChatGPT's study mode, Gemini is now launching its own guided learning mode.

this could be a real boost for my study routine. I tend to rush through problems but guided steps might help me slow down.
does this adapt its guidance based on how well someone is answering or is it more of a fixed path each time?
not sure if this will suit every learner. Some people want quick info and might find step-by-step too slow, but for deep learning, it makes sense.
Finally, this is what we need from LLMs, not just instant answers but prodding us to think critically!

A really huge upgrade. Gemini is now our teammate instead of our worker. It is needed and thank you for doing this.

Just saw GPT 5's learing mode yesterday, and now Genimi drop this. I think it will be a massive shift in how we learn!
Excited to see the future.
Now, the pressure is on other LLM manufacturers
Guided Learning in Gemini sounds like a game-changer - love the shift from quick answers to true understanding.
Works much better than Gemini for a lot use-cases.
