We are tackling a high-stakes, underserved, and emotionally charged market: IB Math students and their parents: a group navigating one of the worldβs most rigorous high school programs with limited, often unreliable support.
For The IB Math Teacher and IB Math Study

- I would like to get support from colleagues and/or other people from around the globe while studying (especially true for HL math students), to be in touch with them and address my doubts, and share my struggles with them
Now, specifically for IB Math prep, the pain points resonate but they're slightly different.
