Tutoring Services
One-to-one tutoring offers personalized support tailored to individual needs, helping students address specific challenges and master difficult concepts effectively, which is crucial for excelling in university entrance exams and obtaining key career certifications. In contrast, group tutoring promotes collaborative learning and peer interaction, enhancing problem-solving skills and exposing students to diverse perspectives. Both methods are vital: one-to-one tutoring ensures focused, customized guidance, while group tutoring fosters teamwork and motivation, preparing students comprehensively for academic and career success.
Why Online Tutoring?
Online tutorials are instrumental in preparing students for IB, A-levels, International A-levels, SAT, ACT, and AP exams, especially when students are navigating a different educational system in their home country. These platforms offer specialized guidance and resources tailored to the requirements of various international qualifications. Here's why online tutorials are crucial:
​
Customized Learning Experience: Online tutorials adapt to the unique needs and curriculum of each qualification. They provide targeted content, practice materials, and exam strategies specific to IB, A-levels, SAT, ACT, and AP, ensuring students are well-prepared for the respective exams.
​
Flexible and Adaptable Approach: Online tutorials accommodate students from diverse educational backgrounds and systems. They bridge gaps in knowledge and understanding, helping students transition smoothly into the curriculum and exam format of IB, A-levels, or other international exams.
​
Global Accessibility: Online tutorials are accessible from anywhere in the world, making them an ideal choice for students pursuing international qualifications. Students can connect with experienced tutors and top-quality resources, even in regions where access to local educational support may be limited.
​
Expert Guidance: These platforms offer guidance from experienced educators who understand the nuances of different exam systems. Expert tutors can provide insights, tips, and strategies specific to IB, A-levels, SAT, ACT, and AP, maximizing students' performance.
​​
Comprehensive Preparation: Online tutorials provide a holistic approach to exam preparation. They cover syllabus content comprehensively, conduct regular assessments, and offer mock exams, ensuring students are well-prepared for the demands of the IB, A-levels, SAT, ACT, or AP exams.
Efficient Time Management: Students in different educational systems often face challenges in managing their time effectively for international exams. Online tutorials help students streamline their study routines, allocate time efficiently for each subject, and maintain a disciplined approach to exam preparation.
​
Increased Confidence: By providing structured guidance and ample practice opportunities, online tutorials boost students' confidence levels. Confidence is critical for excelling in exams like IB, A-levels, SAT, ACT, and AP, where a strong mindset greatly influences performance.
​
In summary, online tutorials play a vital role in preparing students for international qualifications, offering a tailored and supportive learning environment. They empower students to navigate the complexities of different exam systems, ultimately helping them achieve the required results for a successful academic journey.
When and How to Apply to University
Min Three years Prior to Application
For an international student, GCSEs (General Certificate of Secondary Education) and IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) are typically taken during the last two years of secondary education, which is roughly around the ages of 14 to 16. The exact timing can vary based on the country and educational system.
​
For International students, we advise students to take a minimum of 7 to 8 GSCE or IGSCs three years prior to the desired University entry year.
​
Some common IGCSE subjects include Mathematics, English Language, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, History, Geography, Computer Science, Economics, Business Studies, Art and Design, Foreign Languages (e.g., French, Spanish, German), Music, and Physical Education.
The most required IGCSE subjects by universities often depend on the chosen field of study. However, universally valued subjects include Mathematics (critical for STEM courses), English Language, Sciences (Physics, Chemistry, Biology), History/Geography, and Computer Science/ICT. Students should review the specific program requirements of their target universities to ensure they meet the subject prerequisites.
Alevels and International Alevels
Students generally begin taking A-levels (Advanced Level) after completing their General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) or its equivalent, typically at the age of 16. A-levels usually span two years, although some opt for an accelerated one-year program.
Regarding subject choices, the selection is influenced by a student's academic interests, career goals, and intended university field of study. Here are subjects that are often considered desirable for a comprehensive academic foundation:
​
1. Mathematics: A core subject, essential for many STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) degree programs at the university level.
2. English Literature or Language: Enhances communication skills and critical thinking, valuable for a broad range of degree programs.
3. Sciences (Physics, Chemistry, Biology): Highly valued, especially for students aspiring to pursue Medicine, Engineering, Natural Sciences, or related fields.
4. Computer Science: In high demand due to the digital age, particularly relevant for technology-related university courses.
5. Economics: Important for students considering degrees in Economics, Business, Finance, or related fields.
6. History/Geography: Beneficial for those interested in Social Sciences, History, International Relations, or similar disciplines.
7. Languages (e.g., French, Spanish, German): Enhances linguistic abilities and is advantageous for students pursuing language-based degrees or international studies.
8. Further Mathematics: An advanced subject extending core Mathematics, highly beneficial for those pursuing advanced studies in Mathematics, Engineering, or Physics.
​
We advice students to start studying and taking examinations two years prior to their desired entry year to university, however some students will take these examinations in one year.
Students should thoroughly research the specific subject requirements of their target universities and programs, ensuring their A-level subject choices align with their intended field of study and long-term career objectives.
International Baccalaureate (IB)
To take International Baccalaureate (IB) examinations, students typically begin by enrolling in an IB World School, authorized to offer the IB Diploma Programme. Students choose six subjects from different groups and decide whether to take them at a Higher Level (HL) or Standard Level (SL). Internal assessments are completed within the school for each subject, along with Theory of Knowledge (TOK) and Creativity, Activity, and Service (CAS) components. The IB examinations occur in May for Northern Hemisphere students and in November for those in the Southern Hemisphere. The exams encompass various question formats based on the subject, including essays, short responses, multiple-choice questions, and practical assessments.
​
For international students not enrolled in an IB World School, taking IB exams as an external candidate is possible. This allows students to prepare for and sit the exams without completing the full IB Diploma Programme.
​
As for the number of subjects, students can choose to take exams for a few IB subjects or for the full Diploma (six subjects). It's common for students to select 3 to 4 subjects for exam purposes, although they can choose more if they wish. The IB Diploma subjects usually encompass Language and Literature, Language Acquisition, Individuals and Societies, Sciences, Mathematics, and the Arts.
​
Starting early in the two-year IB Diploma Programme is advisable for students preparing for the exams. This timeline allows ample time to cover the syllabus, complete internal assessments, and thoroughly prepare for the examinations. Seeking guidance from IB coordinators, and teachers, and utilizing available study resources is crucial for effective exam preparation.
