International Baccalaureate (IB) Private Tuition

We cover the full IB Diploma Programme. Maths (AA and AI, HL and SL), English A Literature and Language, Sciences, Economics, Humanities, and Languages. In addition, we offer specialist tuition for the “core” elements: Theory of Knowledge, the Extended Essay, and Internal Assessments. These areas often determine top band scores, yet are rarely given the same attention in school timetables.

Yes. Our subject specialists tailor their approach depending on whether a student is working at Higher or Standard Level. For HL students, this often means going beyond the syllabus to strengthen critical thinking and prepare for top university entry.

We guide students through the process, from crafting a research question to structuring analysis and polishing the final draft. For IAs, that might mean showing how to apply methodology consistently; for the EE, it’s about balancing original insight with academic rigour. Crucially, we don’t “do” the work. We help students learn the habits of independent research that will serve them at university and beyond.

Many students struggle with TOK because it feels abstract. Our tutors break it down into manageable steps: framing a knowledge question, selecting clear real-world examples, and developing a line of argument that flows logically. We also coach students in finding their own voice, the difference between a 6 and a 7 often comes down to confidence in tackling ambiguity rather than trying to “play it safe.”

Yes. Many of our families are based overseas, and our tutors are used to supporting students across time zones. Several of our team have taught in international schools themselves, so they understand the unique challenges that IB students often face.

Starting early in IB1 helps students build solid habits, particularly in Maths and Sciences, where concepts build rapidly. However, many families also come to us in IB2, when coursework deadlines and exam preparation converge. We adjust accordingly: early tuition tends to be about depth and clarity, later tuition about exam performance and stress management.

Yes. Retake students often don’t need “more content” they need a new way of approaching the content. We focus on past-paper strategy, exam psychology, and the specific skills examiners are looking for in each subject. With focused guidance, it’s common to see grades shift significantly in a single retake cycle.

Absolutely. IB results are a central part of competitive applications, but they’re only one piece. Our tutors and consultants help IB students align their coursework, Extended Essay, and subject choices with their future ambitions. We also provide guidance on UCAS, Oxbridge, Ivy League, and European universities, ensuring each student presents themselves authentically and compellingly.
