about international baccalaureate tuition
Our IB tutors support students across all six subject groups at both SL and HL, including English, Economics, IB maths, chemistry and physics. Tuition is tailored to each student’s school, subjects and university ambitions. The IB Diploma requires breadth across six subjects alongside independent research and sustained commitment beyond the classroom. We also support students through Theory of Knowledge (TOK), the Extended Essay and CAS.
Why pick us?
The IB Diploma is structured around six subject groups and the DP core. Students study a combination of languages, humanities, sciences, mathematics and arts, while also completing Theory of Knowledge, an Extended Essay and Creativity, Activity, Service. This framework is designed to combine academic depth with breadth, independence and real-world engagement.
Students typically take three subjects at Higher Level and three at Standard Level. HL and SL courses are assessed against the same grade descriptors, but HL requires a greater body of knowledge, understanding and skills. In addition, the Extended Essay is a 4,000-word independent research project, while TOK and CAS form compulsory parts of the programme.
We have extensive experience supporting students across the full IB Diploma, helping them manage workload, meet assessment criteria and maintain strong performance across all elements of the programme.

A first class service from Think Tutors. We were provided with a very skillful and experienced tutor who provided a well thought out and bespoke service. All the communication around the sessions, monthly reports etc. was excellent too, as well as the very useful general advice. All in all I would certainly recommend and use again in future.
