Learn Cursor 1:1 Online: What a Session Looks Like
A private Cursor session is 60 minutes on Zoom or Google Meet, working in your own project. You spend 10 minutes reviewing progress, 35 minutes building live with Cursor's AI while you drive, 10 minutes writing down the prompts and decisions, and 5 minutes setting your next milestone. You keep a written playbook after each session.

How the 60 minutes are spent
| Minutes | What happens |
|---|---|
| 10 | Goal and review: what you built since last time and what is blocking you |
| 35 | Live building: you share your screen and drive Cursor while Praveen guides the prompts, reviews changes and explains decisions |
| 10 | Playbook: the prompts, rules, code and decisions from the session are written down for you to reuse |
| 5 | Next milestone: one concrete task to finish before the next session |
What you learn in Cursor
- Setting up project rules so the AI follows your stack and conventions.
- Asking for plans before code, then building in small, testable steps.
- Reading and accepting or rejecting diffs, and undoing safely with git.
- Debugging from error messages and logs instead of guessing.
- Knowing when to switch to Claude Code for larger, multi-file changes.
Who it suits
Developers who want to work faster with AI, product managers and founders who want to build prototypes themselves, and anyone who started with a no-code builder and now needs to edit real code. Cursor lessons usually sit inside the Vibe Coding Mastery track, but you can also book single sessions for a specific problem.
Copy-paste prompts
Project rules for Cursor
Write a short project rules file for this codebase: stack, folder conventions, how to run tests, what never to change without asking, and coding style. Keep it under 30 lines.Troubleshooting
- Cursor's suggestions don't match my project style. Add a project rules file and reference the files it should imitate in your prompt.
FAQ
Can I learn Cursor in one session?
One session is enough to set it up properly and learn a safe workflow on your project. Becoming fast and confident usually takes a few weeks of practice between sessions.
Do sessions run in Indian and international time zones?
Yes. Sessions are online and scheduled around your time zone, from India to the UK, US, Middle East and Australia.
