FocusHour on a tablet: a question about a circular lid, with handwritten working that first uses 11 as the radius, then fixes it to 5.5 and gets 11π.
The real problem

Ping. Ping. Ping. Phone down. Focus up.

Pen and paper

Paper builds focus.

  • But paper can't see where you got stuck,
  • give a hint without the answer,
  • pick the next question's level,
  • or engage your parents.

So we kept the pen, and fixed the paper.

The tablet app, real footage that plays as you scroll: a student takes 11 as the radius and picks 22π, opens Key idea, crosses the mistake out, uses r = 5.5 and gets 11π, right.

Focused practice, on a tablet

Work it out with a pen.

  1. Stuck.
  2. Key idea, not the answer.
  3. It clicks.

The tablet app: a student has written C = 2πr, r = 11, C = 22π and picked 22π. They tap Ask coach, and the coach's card says: You set r = 11. The question gives diameter 11. What must you do to the diameter before using 2πr?

Technique, not answers

Stuck? Ask coach.

It reads their working and nudges the step. Never the answer.

Trains you like a gym coach

Hard, never crushing.

One idea, one short clip.

126 clips, each built on a real test question and its trap. Watch one before a set, or after a wrong answer.

For parents

See the reps. Do one thing a week.

Every week, a report on the real work: the hours, every answer, the ideas behind the lost marks, and one or two things you can do.

Every week, the real work.

A sample weekly report for a made-up student, Hamza, on a phone: he is building a routine (3 hours 10 minutes, 212 answers, 61% right); the idea behind his lost marks (percent of what, 7 of 12 wrong across three topics); what to do next; and his own working, where he caught a mistake.

A sample report for a made-up student. Every number is invented.
