IB Maths tutors

Showing 24 of 30 UK tutors who teach Maths at IB. £15–£150/hr · median £40

Maths runs the full distance in the UK curriculum: from Year 1 number bonds through GCSE problem-solving to A-level Pure, Mechanics and Statistics. Tutoring helps most at the friction points: the jump from arithmetic to algebra around Year 6/7, the pace and breadth of GCSE coverage, and the technique-led applied papers at A-level. Spec choice matters: Edexcel, AQA, OCR and MEI diverge enough on Mechanics, Statistics and Decision content that exam-paper familiarity is part of the job. For 11+ and 13+ prep, look for tutors who know the local test format (GL, CEM, ISEB, or bespoke school papers).

The International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme is a two-year sixth-form qualification taken in place of A-levels, offered by some independent and a small number of state schools. Students take six subjects (three Higher Level, three Standard Level) plus the Theory of Knowledge course, the Extended Essay, and CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service). UK universities accept the IB on equivalent UCAS-points terms, often with course-specific subject requirements. Tutoring helps most with HL subject content (which goes beyond A-level in some cases), with the Extended Essay, and with the Theory of Knowledge essay and presentation. Look for tutors with explicit IB teaching or examining experience.
