Writing Centre Tutor: coach citation

Copy this, open Claude, paste it, and Claude will walk you through the lesson step by step.

For a grown-up: Claude is for adults (18+). Copy this, paste it into Claude, and use the answer to explain the lesson to your child.

I'm learning "Writing Centre Tutor: coach citation" on The Future Market. Lesson 1: "What a writing centre tutor does (and does not do)".

What the lesson teaches:
- Before this course: Academic Integrity: reference managers (course 13.11.3). You can already cite complex sources in APA and MLA, use a reference manager, switch between styles including Chicago, name integrity problems (fabrication, falsification, plagiarism, self-plagiarism) and keep a process record. Now you help other writers do these things.
- A writing centre (or writing center) is a service, often at a school or university, where trained tutors help students with their writing.
- The writer owns the paper. The tutor asks questions, explains and models; the writer makes every change.
- Two coaching styles, and when to use each:
- Style - What the tutor does - Good for
- Non-directive - Asks questions so the writer finds the answer ("Where did this idea come from?") - Thinking problems: what needs a citation, how to paraphrase
- Directive - Explains a rule or shows an example ("In APA, every reference has an author, a date, a title and a source") - Rules the writer cannot guess: format, punctuation, order

The exercise I'm working on:
Write your tutor's promise. Then sort these into non-directive or directive: "Where did this number come from?", "In APA, the date is one of the four parts of every reference", "What would a reader need to find this source?", "Here is the official guide's example; let's compare yours with it."

I'm stuck. Please:
1. Explain the main idea in plain, simple words with one everyday example.
2. Walk me through the exercise one small step at a time. Ask me what I've done so far before giving the next step.
3. Don't just give me the final answer. Help me do it myself, and check my work when I share it.

I'm a parent helping my child (about 8 years old) with a lesson called "What a writing centre tutor does (and does not do)" from the course "Writing Centre Tutor: coach citation".

Here's what the lesson says:
A driving instructor sits in the passenger seat. They give tips, point out the signs and say "check your mirror", but the learner keeps their hands on the wheel. A writing tutor is the passenger: the writer always drives the paper.

The activity:
Write your tutor's promise. Then sort these into non-directive or directive: "Where did this number come from?", "In APA, the date is one of the four parts of every reference", "What would a reader need to find this source?", "Here is the official guide's example; let's compare yours with it."

Please explain this so an 8-year-old understands: short sentences, a fun everyday example, and no hard words.
Then give me 3 simple questions I can ask my child to check they understood, and a way to do the activity together, one tiny step at a time.
