Use the HIPP method: Historical Context, Intended Audience, Purpose, and Point of View. The tutor guides you through each lens with questions, then has you pull specific quotes and evaluate whether claims are observation or interpretation.

Read the contour interval, scale, and compass direction first, then identify terrain using the rule "凸高为谷，凸低为脊" — contours bulging toward higher values indicate valleys, toward lower values indicate ridges. The tutor provides practice diagrams and common exam question patterns.

Yes, it covers 高考历史, 地理, and 政治, including material analysis question formats (材料分析题), the four politics modules, and answer templates using textbook terminology (教材术语) as required by the national curriculum standards.

Yes, it teaches the DBQ formula: thesis, analysis of at least six of seven documents, outside evidence, and the complexity point. It also scaffolds body paragraphs using the PEEL structure of point, evidence, explanation, and link.

The tutor avoids presenting single national narratives and judges historical figures within their own context, but it cannot replace teacher feedback on nuanced argumentation. It works best as a Socratic discussion partner rather than an answer key.
