Practice IGCSE Physics by Speaking
Record your answer, get an instant Whisper transcript and AI-powered mark-scheme feedback. Covers Cambridge 0625 and Edexcel 4PH1 topics.
1. Pick a topic
2. Read the question and answer (voice or text)
State Newton's second law of motion and explain what each quantity in the equation represents.
3. AI mark-scheme feedback

How it works
- 1Pick a physics topic from the CIE 0625 / Edexcel 4PH1 syllabus.
- 2Read the past-paper style question and press "Start speaking".
- 3OpenAI Whisper transcribes your spoken answer in seconds.
- 4You get keyword feedback against the examiner mark scheme and a model answer.
Why practice physics out loud?
IGCSE Physics long-answer questions are marked on specific keywords from the official mark scheme. Explaining a concept out loud forces you to produce full physical reasoning — the same skill you need in the written exam. Voice practice is faster than typing, so you can cover more questions in the same revision session.

Frequently asked questions
How does the IGCSE Physics voice practice tool work?+
You pick a topic from the CIE 0625 / Edexcel 4PH1 syllabus, read a past-paper style question and record your spoken answer (up to 90 seconds). OpenAI Whisper transcribes your answer, then a physics-tuned AI grader compares it against the mark-scheme keywords, awarding marks and giving you feedback and tips to reach full marks.
Which exam boards does it cover?+
The tool follows the Cambridge IGCSE Physics 0625 and Edexcel IGCSE Physics 4PH1 syllabi. All six major topic areas are included: general physics, thermal physics, waves, electricity and magnetism, nuclear physics and space physics.
Can I type my answer instead of speaking it?+
The tool is built around voice input because explaining physics out loud builds the same reasoning skills you need in the written exam. A typed-answer fallback is planned for a future release.
Is my voice recording stored anywhere?+
No. The audio is sent directly to OpenAI Whisper for transcription and is not persisted on our servers. Only the transcript is temporarily used to grade your answer; it is not stored after the grading call returns.
Is the grading accurate?+
The grader is prompted with the official style of Cambridge / Edexcel mark schemes and awards marks for physics ideas (not just exact wording). It tolerates scientific synonyms and minor transcription errors. It is excellent for revision and self-assessment, but a qualified tutor remains the best judge for borderline answers — which is why every result links to a free consultation with Pietro Meloni.
Is the tool free?+
Yes. The voice practice tool is completely free to use. If you want 1-to-1 support, you can book a free consultation with Pietro Meloni — PhD Candidate in Physics and IGCSE / IB specialist.
