IB Preparation Prices
Every way to prepare for IB with us, with lesson packages, included materials and available self-study options.
- From USD 95 per lesson
- Single lesson available first
One-to-one lesson packages
Every lesson is 90 minutes, live and online, with the same specialist for as long as you are working on their area. Where two areas need lifting — SAT Math and Reading and Writing, say — that is two specialists rather than one generalist, and the package covers lessons with either. The per-lesson rate falls as the package grows; the single lesson exists so you can meet a tutor before committing.
| Package | Total | Per lesson | Buy |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 lesson | USD 100 | USD 100 | Buy: IB, 1 lesson |
| 10 lessons | USD 970 | USD 97 | Buy: IB, 10 lessons |
| 20 lessons | USD 1,900 | USD 95 | Buy: IB, 20 lessons |
Bought here, with no account needed: the checkout asks for the student’s details, and we then contact you to match the tutor and agree the times. A single lesson can be bought up to ten at a time. Lessons in a package stay valid until they have been used.
IB-specific programmes
The Diploma needs more than subject lessons. Written-work supervision is booked one-to-one; Pre-IB and Mid-IB are bought as private-group seats, each at its own fee. IB Revision is further down, in the IB private group.
IA, EE and TOK supervision
Booked as one-to-one lessons, with a supervisor who knows the criteria you are marked against.
| Package | Total | Per lesson | Buy |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 lesson | USD 100 | USD 100 | Buy: IA, EE, TOK, 1 lesson |
| 10 lessons | USD 970 | USD 97 | Buy: IA, EE, TOK, 10 lessons |
| 20 lessons | USD 1,900 | USD 95 | Buy: IA, EE, TOK, 20 lessons |
Pre-IB, as a private group
For students starting the Diploma next year: before DP1 begins, it closes the gap between IGCSE or a national curriculum and HL expectations.
Each subject: 10 lessons of 90 minutes, 15 hours.
| Subjects | Price per student | Lessons | Buy |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 subject | USD 385 | 10 lessons | Buy: Pre-IB, 1 subject |
| 2 subjects | USD 715 | 20 lessons | Buy: Pre-IB, 2 subjects |
| 3 subjects | USD 1,000 | 30 lessons | Buy: Pre-IB, 3 subjects |
| 4 subjects | USD 1,300 | 40 lessons | Buy: Pre-IB, 4 subjects |
Mid-IB, as a private group
For students already in DP1, alongside school across the year rather than as a burst before an exam.
Each subject: 20 lessons of 90 minutes, 30 hours.
| Subjects | Price per student | Lessons | Buy |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 subject | USD 765 | 20 lessons | Buy: Mid-IB, 1 subject |
| 2 subjects | USD 1,530 | 40 lessons | Buy: Mid-IB, 2 subjects |
| 3 subjects | USD 2,000 | 60 lessons | Buy: Mid-IB, 3 subjects |
| 4 subjects | USD 2,600 | 80 lessons | Buy: Mid-IB, 4 subjects |
Neither programme runs on fixed dates. Three or more friends who want the same programme each buy their own seat here, in one payment, at the fee for their number of subjects; at checkout you name your subjects, each at HL or SL, and the friends you are joining, and the start date and lesson times are then agreed with your group. A seat includes no practice tests or question bank.
Support for written work is advisory and supervisory. We do not write, redraft or edit a student’s internal assessment or extended essay: doing so would breach the IB’s academic integrity policy and put the whole Diploma at risk.
IB private group: revision and term-time lessons
IB Revision and group lessons during term are taught only in a private group: three or more friends who want the same IB subjects form their own class, as IB has no group courses with set dates. Revision is intensive group work in the weeks before the May or November session. Each student buys their own place here at the IB Revision price for the same number of subjects, with 30 hours of live online lessons in each subject, in one payment. At checkout you name your subjects, each at HL or SL; once the places are paid we agree the start date and timetable with your group. The IB private group includes no practice tests or question bank.

Private groups: If you are not satisfied after the lessons held in your group's first week, we refund your payment in full. The checkout asks for the student’s details and, if you like, the names of the friends you are booking with.

Not sure how many IB lessons you need?
That is what the free intro call is for. We would rather sell you ten lessons that close the gap than fifty that do not.
