 ### Write a tuner that leverages multi-phase:
 
-Before writing a multi-phase tuner, we highly suggest you to go through  [Customize Tuner](https://nni.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Customize_Tuner.html). Different from writing a normal tuner, your tuner needs to inherit from `MultiPhaseTuner` (in nni.multi_phase_tuner). The key difference between `Tuner` and `MultiPhaseTuner` is that the methods in MultiPhaseTuner are aware of additional information, that is, `trial_job_id`. With this information, the tuner could know which trial is requesting a configuration, and which trial is reporting results. This information provides enough flexibility for your tuner to deal with different trials and different phases. For example, you may want to use the trial_job_id parameter of generate_parameters method to generate hyperparameters for a specific trial job.
+Before writing a multi-phase tuner, we highly suggest you to go through  [Customize Tuner](https://nni.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Customize_Tuner.html). Same as writing a normal tuner, your tuner needs to inherit from `Tuner` class. When you enable multi-phase through configuration (set `multiPhase` to true), your tuner will get an additional parameter `trial_job_id` via tuner's following methods:
+```
+generate_parameters
+generate_multiple_parameters
+receive_trial_result
+receive_customized_trial_result
+trial_end

 Of course, to use your multi-phase tuner, __you should add `multiPhase: true` in your experiment YAML configure file__.
