The IB practice that adapts to you,
one rung at a time
Photon Learn is two tools built by Singapore's IB specialists: a Learning Studio that drills every IB Maths and Physics topic to mastery, and an adaptive Diagnostic that marks your handwritten working and pinpoints exactly what to revise.

Built by IB examiners — proven on real IB results
Photon Learn is the same practice engine Photon Academy uses with its own students — a team that has taught 1,000+ IB students over 15+ years, with practising IB examiners writing every question and worked solution to the real IB standard.
Live now for IB Maths (AA & AI) and Physics, HL & SL — more subjects coming soon.
Two tools, one goal — your best IB grade
Find out exactly what to revise, then master it with unlimited exam-standard practice.
Photon Learning Studio
Every IB Maths and Physics topic is an adaptive skill ladder. You start at exam standard; the moment you slip, it re-teaches that exact step — a hint, then a worked example, then a guided walkthrough — until you've mastered it. Each topic ends with a full IB-style, multi-part exam question.
Inside every topic: climb the rungs until each is mastered — then face a full IB-style question.
- Unlimited exam-standard questions — generated fresh every time
- Hints, worked examples & step-by-step guidance when you slip
- An IB Paper-style multi-part question on every topic
- Mastery tracked topic by topic
- Covers every IB Maths & Physics topic — HL & SL, nothing left out
- Runs in any browser — no install, and your progress is saved
Photon Diagnostic
An adaptive test across every concept in your subject that climbs to your ceiling and pinpoints exactly where you break — then marks a photo of your handwritten working against the real IB mark scheme. Your tutor sees a full concept-by-concept report.
- Adaptive — finds your exact ceiling in every concept
- AI-marks a photo of your handwritten working
- Full concept-by-concept report of every weak spot
Practise every IB Maths & Physics topic
Two topics per subject are free to try right now — no account needed. Switch between Maths AA, Maths AI and Physics (HL & SL) below, then click any topic to jump into the Studio.
Built to move you, fast
Exam standard from Q1
No gentle warm-ups — every question is pitched at the real IB level.
It teaches when you slip
Get one wrong and it re-explains that exact skill, more slowly each time.
Never runs out
Questions and diagrams are generated fresh, so you can drill a skill until it sticks.
Know where you stand
Mastery is tracked per topic, and the Diagnostic gives a full concept report.
Every topic goes two layers deep
Photon doesn’t just throw questions at you. Each topic is built in two layers — first the sub-skills that make it up, then the actual IB question-types it’s tested as — so you always know which part is shaky, not just that something is.
The skill ladder
Every topic is a six-rung ladder from bare recall up to the hardest HL twist. You climb one rung at a time.
Adaptive. You start around IB standard. Slip on a rung and it re-teaches that exact step — a hint, then a worked example, then a guided walk-through — until it’s yours.
The type sweep
One full IB question of every way the topic is really asked — drawn from the real past-paper bank — each marked on the IB scheme.
From “where am I?” to “mastered”
Two tools, one loop. The Diagnostic tells you exactly what to fix; the Studio fixes it. Here’s how each one runs.
- Sit the adaptive screener
A short test across every concept in your subject climbs to your ceiling and surfaces your weak topics.
- Deep-dive the weak topics
On each one, you face a full IB question of every type — so it’s clear which types break, not just which topics.
- Snap your handwritten working
Photograph your solution and it’s marked against the real IB mark scheme, method mark by method mark.
- Get your report
A concept-by-concept, type-by-type breakdown lands with your tutor and in your inbox — with what to do next.
- Pick a topic
Start with any free topic — no sign-up — or jump to the exact one your report flagged.
- Climb the ladder
Exam standard from question one. Slip and it re-teaches that precise step, more slowly each time, until it sticks.
- Face a full IB question
Every topic ends with a multi-part, IB-style problem — the real thing, not a warm-up.
- Sweep the question-types
Meet one of every IB type in the topic and drill until each one comes back Secure.
A report that says exactly what to do next
No single mystery score. Your Diagnostic report shows the whole picture — and it’s written to be read by students and parents.
In plain English: solid on the core skills — about 45 minutes to exam-ready.
- 1Readiness at a glance
How many of the topic’s IB question-types are secure, plus the mark total. One look tells you if it’s exam-ready.
- 2In plain English
A jargon-free line written for parents — what’s solid, what’s left, and a realistic time to close it.
- 3Layer 1 · the atoms
Every sub-skill marked secure or shaky, and exactly where on the ladder the climb stalled.
- 4Layer 2 · the types
Each full IB question-type as Secure, Partial (a slip) or Gap (missing method) — a slip is never counted as a gap.
- 5What to drill next
A ranked to-do list, each item linking straight to the Studio rung that closes it.
Not just another IB revision site
The big IB revision sites have polished videos and huge question banks — and that’s genuinely useful. Here’s what they can’t do, and Photon Learn can.
IB revision site
Most IB revision platforms hand you videos and a question bank, then leave you to it. Photon Learn is a coaching loop — diagnose → drill to mastery → re-check — built and marked by a working IB examiner.

How much does the Photon Learn Studio cost?
Two full topics per subject are free with no sign-up. Full access to every topic in a subject — IB Maths AA, AI or Physics, HL or SL — is a single one-time payment of SGD 250, lifetime access, no subscription.
Can Photon Learn mark my handwritten working?
Yes. The Diagnostic lets you photograph your handwritten working and marks it against the real IB mark scheme, then shows a concept-by-concept report of exactly where you lost marks.
Is Photon Learn good for IB exam revision?
It’s built for it — the Diagnostic pinpoints your weak topics across IB Maths and Physics, and the Learning Studio drills each one to mastery with unlimited exam-standard questions and full IB-style problems, so your revision targets exactly what you need.
Which topics are free?
Two full Studio topics per subject are free with unlimited practice, and no sign-up is needed to start. Unlocking every topic in a subject is a single one-time payment of SGD 250, with no subscription.
What's the difference between the Learning Studio and the Diagnostic?
The Diagnostic finds your gaps — an adaptive test that shows which concepts to revise. The Learning Studio closes them — it trains each topic to mastery with hints, worked examples and step-by-step guidance. Use the Diagnostic to know what to work on, then the Studio to work on it.
Which subjects and levels does Photon Learn cover?
IB Mathematics — both Analysis & Approaches (AA) and Applications & Interpretation (AI) — and IB Physics, at Higher and Standard Level. Every subject has the same adaptive Studio and Diagnostic.
Who makes Photon Learn?
Photon Learn is built by Photon Academy, an IB and Pre-IB specialist tuition centre in Singapore. Every question and worked solution is written to match the real IB standard.
