Mr Flynn IB: IB Mathematics video lessons, IA guidance and past paper solutions
AA SL

Analysis & Approaches · SL

Turn a demanding syllabus into a clear, manageable plan.

Concise teaching, carefully chosen examples and exam-focused practice for AA SL students who need clarity without unnecessary complication.

What you’ll learn

Understand the method and know when to use it.

The goal is not simply to watch more videos. It is to make unfamiliar IB questions feel more manageable because the underlying mathematics is clear.

  • 01Strengthen essential algebra and functions
  • 02Build confidence with non-routine exam questions
  • 03Improve calculator and non-calculator technique
  • 04Revise efficiently across the full course
