AI Maths tutor
IGCSE Maths, with every method mark.
Work through 0580 questions one line at a time, with or without a calculator. Your tutor checks each step, so you keep the method marks even when an answer slips.
Practise IGCSE MathsThis is worth 3 marks. They go for:
- Expand the bracket: 6x − 15 = 4x + 7 (1 mark)
- Collect the x terms: 2x = 22 (1 mark)
- x = 11 (1 mark)
Examiner tip: Write every line. If your final answer slips, the working still earns the method marks.

Where marks are lost
Common Cambridge IGCSE Maths mistakes
Rounding part-way through.
Keep full calculator values until the last line. Cambridge wants non-exact answers to 3 significant figures, and angles to 1 decimal place, unless the question says otherwise.
Measuring the diagram.
Diagrams marked “NOT TO SCALE” can’t be measured. Work out lengths and angles from the facts you’re given.
Giving geometry reasons in your own words.
Use the standard reasons, such as “angles in the same segment are equal” or “alternate angles”. Vague reasons often lose the mark.
