Why Jamie Uses Tailo to Cut Through Academic Clutter
Balancing the demands of a part-time doctorate, a full-time career, and competing internationally in sport, Jamie relies on Tailo to simplify complex academic reading, reduce study time, and stay confident and focused.
The Challenge
As a Doctor of Education student at the University of Reading, Jamie balances rigorous postgraduate study with a full-time job and international sporting commitments. Academic reading was a major hurdle: dense research papers and complex language meant he often had to re-read sections multiple times just to grasp the core points.
This constant cycle of confusion and repetition slowed down his learning and added pressure to an already demanding schedule.
“I’d find myself reading chapters without understanding anything of what I had just read”
The Solution
Jamie was introduced to Tailo through his DSA assessor.
With its AI-powered tools, he could upload academic documents and instantly generate concise, accessible summaries. This gave him a clear overview of each paper’s value before investing more time.
He also used Tailo to reword complicated sections, making dense reading lists more approachable.
“I upload the documents and use the summarise function to understand if I’d like to read the full article. It saves time and helps me focus.”
