Adaptive LLM tutoring system with subject-aware prompt routing improves high-school student engagement

Researchers develop and evaluate an LLM-based tutoring system that uses a learned prompt routing model to dynamically select pedagogical strategies based on 14 features extracted from conversation transcripts. The system was trained in simulation and deployed in an A/B test with 359 high-school students (656 conversations), showing sim-to-real transfer and reducing required interactions by ~3 turns. A stochastic routing strategy achieved a notably higher exercise conversion rate (28.1%) compared to a greedy router (19.1%) and static baseline (19.6%).
