How we help

One tutor, matched to your current grade and school, covering every paper and the Internal Assessment against the same criteria examiners use. Tap any item for more detail.

Section A asks two short-answer questions on biological, cognitive, or sociocultural content; Section B applies that knowledge to an unfamiliar scenario; Section C is one extended response, chosen from two options. We drill all three approaches, not just the one a student finds easiest.

35% SL · 25% HL

Section A asks four questions built around the research methods covered in class practicals; Section B presents an unseen study to evaluate using two or more concepts. We practise evaluating research you’ve never seen before, not just reciting the ones studied in class.

35% SL · 25% HL

HL only. Four source-based questions combine quantitative and qualitative findings around the HL extension topics, with a strong emphasis on data interpretation. We drill reading unfamiliar sources accurately under time pressure, not memorising past ones.

30% HL only

SL and HL both submit a research proposal investigating a real-world problem for a specified population of interest, built around one of the four methods covered in class practicals. We help students choose a population and method with genuine scope, then build the proposal against the criteria examiners use.

Before you book

Sessions run one-on-one over video, built around your child's actual school assessments rather than a generic syllabus.

We match on subject mastery and teaching style, informed by the free 15-minute call, not just who happens to be free.

Simply reach out to our admin team, and we'll work with you to arrange a replacement tutor better suited to your needs.

We recommend starting a few weeks before the beginning of term to allow adequate time for preparation, though starting earlier is always beneficial.

There is no minimum session requirement. We do, however, offer package options for families who prefer to commit in advance.

Yes. Paper 1 and Paper 2 are covered at both levels, plus Paper 3 for Higher Level students specifically, all timed to your school's assessment calendar.

Biological, cognitive, and sociocultural. Paper 1 and Paper 2 both draw on all three, so we make sure every student is comfortable applying each one, not just their favourite.

Yes. We help students choose a population of interest and a research method with genuine scope, then build the proposal out against the same criteria examiners use.
