A method for tutoring a user in use of a kit for determining an analyte (such as glucose) in a bodily fluid sample (for example a whole blood sample) includes activating an analytical meter of the kit, with the analytical meter including a display-based tutorial module. In addition, the display-based tutorial module includes a user interface with a visual display, a memory unit storing a tutorial, and a microprocessor unit configured for controlling and coordinating the user interface and the memory unit. Moreover, the tutorial stored in the memory unit has chapters with each of the chapters containing one or more tutorial images depicting use of the kit. In addition, the user interface, microprocessor unit and memory unit are operatively linked and configured for event-driven chapter-based display of the tutorial images to a user on the visual display. The method also includes tutoring the user on use of the kit by displaying the tutorial images in an event-driven chapter-based manner.
