IB, PYP, MYP and AERO tutoring for Primary, Middle and High School
“The art of teaching is the art of assisting discovery.” – Mark Van Doren
We Take The Art Of Private Tuition Very Seriously
Every one of our IB tutors scored distinctions in high school, has studied at university, passed our intake exams with distinction, and then completed our tutor training programme with distinction.
Our IB tutors don’t just know the work, they know how to teach it; our students frequently improve their marks by 2 grade points.
First, we assess the student to identify gaps in the fundamentals (what content don’t they know?) and common error types (how are they losing marks?).
Then, we select a mentor from our team of Cambridge tutors. It is crucial for a student to ‘like’ their tutor and look forward to the lessons.
The trained tutor comes to the house for high-impact one-on-one lessons where they actually teach the ideas and concepts.
We set structured homework for the student to do in between lessons. When it comes to learning, practice is key.
We use projects, experiments, and practical demonstrations to excite the student and pique their interest.
The student writes regular mock tests so that they can practise their skills under exam conditions, and we can monitor their progress and increase their confidence.
A student needs to familiarise themselves with the technical requirements of the memorandum in order to excel. We teach test-taking techniques.
We supervise, guide and support the programme to ensure a great result.
