One important strategy in Socratic tutoring is the Directed Line of Reasoning, in which the tutor asks a series of directive questions, to help the student follow a particular approach to the problem. The questions may contain useful information to assist the student in making the argument. If the student gets stuck, the tutor often supplies a hint. The result is an effective dialog with the student that helps students reason about the solution to a problem, while still feeling they are solving it themselves.
