# Learn anything with the /teach skill

**[Matt Pocock](https://daily.dev/sources/mattpocock)** · 13 min read · 5 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

A developer and educator shares a custom 'teach' skill built for AI coding agents (like Claude Code/Codex) that turns them into personalized tutors. The skill is stateful, saving lessons, learning records, a glossary, cheat sheets, and notes to the file system across sessions. It applies pedagogical concepts like the zone of proximal development to generate focused, interactive HTML lessons tailored to the learner's current progress. The author demonstrates it by learning to solve a Rubik's cube and suggests it could also be used for developer onboarding to codebases. The skill is available via the author's skills repo.
