Examine step. I wrote: at the food bank I learned that poverty is bad and we should help people.

That's a general statement you could have written before you ever went — which is the signal that the Examine step hasn't done its work yet. Examine asks you to connect this specific experience to course material and to test an assumption you brought with you.
Try this: name one concrete thing you actually observed that surprised you or challenged an assumption, and one course concept that helps explain it. Answer with that observation and concept, and we'll build the Examine step from there.
The tutor questions, diagnoses and teaches, but never writes your experience, feelings, insight or learning. That boundary is the whole point.
