This seems like I would take the bill walsh approach and script my first 5 plays (this is actually done in chess as well, the first 5 moves are kind of random then it begins to start using the long algorithms.) then make your calculating moves after that.

One approach would be to create coach profiles. These profiles would then serve as a sort of "baseline" that would drive decisions when the AI lacks information about the user, and would alter the way that the computer interprets feedback/results.
