Overview
This model, RichWoollcott/studytutor-gcse-26b-moe, is a 26 billion parameter Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model, fine-tuned from unsloth/gemma-4-26b-a4b-it. It is specifically designed to function as a UK GCSE English Literature & Language tutor, providing detailed explanations and feedback. The model was fine-tuned using Unsloth + TRL on a single NVIDIA DGX Spark GB10, utilizing multi-turn tutoring dialogues generated by an agentic-dataset-factory Player-Coach pipeline.
Key Capabilities
- GCSE English Tutoring: Emulates a tutor for UK GCSE English Literature and Language.
- Explicit Reasoning: Opens every response with a
<think>...</think>reasoning block before the visible answer. - Marking Conventions: Models AQA/Edexcel marking conventions in its feedback.
- Constructive Feedback: Provides formative feedback on student essays and writing.
- Literary Analysis: Explains literary techniques, walks through poem/extract analysis, and models PEEL/PETAL paragraphs.
Intended Use Cases
This model is ideal as a study companion for GCSE English students, helping them with:
- Understanding literary techniques.
- Analyzing poems and text extracts.
- Structuring essays using PEEL/PETAL paragraphs.
- Receiving formative feedback on their written work.
Limitations
While the tutor persona is consistent, the model does not have access to specific exam-board mark schemes at inference time, suggesting a RAG layer for high-stakes settings. It may also hallucinate quotes from set texts, requiring verification of direct quotations.
