Maths & Economics • Prospective Econometrics student • I teach the way I wish I'd been taught. I build intuition, explain methods the IB actually rewards, then train for speed. That way, questions feel predictable, your answers are clean, and you walk in confident on exam day.

Jack
English, Spanish & History • English at University College London • The languages and the humanities are difficult to master, especially in a rigorous system like the IB. Having said that, achieving great scores in them is very doable once you understand the structure of the exams and the exact material you should study.

How We Make Steady Progress
Consistent beats cramming. Each lesson follows a loop: quick recap → 2–3 targeted past questions → mark-scheme feedback → next steps. We recommend:
- Cadence: 1-2×/week normally; 2+×/week in the 6–8 weeks before mocks/exams.
- Homework: focused question-set (or a 20–40-minute timed set) between sessions.
- Study pack: build a shared formula sheet/glossary + exam checklists as we go.
- Assessment rhythm: one timed paper every session every 2 weeks before an exam.
- IA/EE: lock a research question early; milestones → outline → draft → feedback. Integrity first.
Checklist
- Send syllabus/option topics, exam dates, and target grade.
- Share recent tests or coursework (with teacher comments).
- Agree a weekly slot and preferred contact (email/WhatsApp).
- Set up a shared folder/Doc for homework, feedback, and the formula sheet.
