Our approach to IB Geography tutoring is completely personalised. This means, we adapt our tutoring programme based on your needs instead of using a one-size-fits-all approach. We start by understanding your specific needs, including the topics that challenge you and the areas you know well. At the same time, we would like to get to know your learning style so that we can adapt the material accordingly.
Having said that, our IB Geography tutors have comprehensive knowledge of the IB Geography syllabus, including all core topics:
Our expert support extends to the optional themes as well, of which Standard Level students study two and Higher Level students – three:
For Higher Level students, we offer guidance on the additional HL-exclusive content:
You can be sure that our tutors tailor their approach to strengthen your geographical knowledge and prepare you for all assessment components.
Yes, we provide tailored tutoring sessions for both Standard Level and Higher Level IB Geography students. We adjust our approach based on the level you are at, since they have varied depths of the material and assessment methods.
Higher Level Geography builds on the SL foundation but includes additional content and more rigorous assessment. While SL students study two optional themes, HL students must master three. At the same time, Higher Level covers three HL-specific topics: power, places and networks; human development and diversity; and global risks and resilience.
The assessment structure is also different. SL requires two exam papers; at HL, you will have to write a third paper, which focuses exclusively on the extension units. Both levels also require an Internal Assessment (fieldwork report).
Our tutors design lessons to account for these differences. Whether you’re studying Geography at SL or HL, your tutoring experience will precisely match your curriculum requirements and assessment criteria.
Our tutors are committed to delivering personalised support for your IB Geography Internal Assessment. You can count on us every step of the way, from initial idea development to report formatting.
Would you like to present a unique question for your Geography IA? Our tutors will be happy to assist with brainstorming as well as assess the feasibility of your ideas within the IB framework. You are not sure how to best approach your research question? You can rely on our tutors to guide you through appropriate methodologies for data collection. Not sure about your research design? Let them give you tips on how to make it sound and appropriate for the IB programme. As you progress with your IB Geography IA, our tutors can assist with analysis techniques and the creation of visual representations.
For many students, the written IA report is as challenging as the research itself. After all, it is important to structure your work effectively, develop clear arguments, and provide evidence, while meeting all the assessment criteria. With an IB Geography tutor, you can avoid the most common errors. They are able to provide feedback on drafts and highlight areas for improvement.
Yes, we put a strong emphasis on past paper practice as it’s one of the most effective ways to prepare for IB Geography exams.
First of all, practice with past papers helps you become familiar with specific question styles (from short-answer responses to extended answers), command terms, and mark allocation used in IB Geography exams.
Second, they help understand what examiners are looking for in your answers and develop effective exam strategies. These may include:
Third, past papers are an excellent way to find out your strengths and areas of growth. Thanks to detailed feedback from our IB Geography tutors, you can improve your approach, avoid common errors, and gain more confidence with each practice session.
Overall, our experience shows that students who regularly work through past papers with a tutor may expect a boost in their exam performance.

Our IB Geography tutors are highly qualified professionals with degrees (at least a Bachelor’s) in Geography or related environmental sciences. As a result, they possess deep subject knowledge that is not limited to the IB curriculum.
Along with this, our Geography tutors have a past or current experience in teaching at international schools and many of them are also IB examiners. Thanks to this insider perspective, they are able to offer strategies for maximising your marks.
To become a member of our team, all the candidates go through rigorous vetting. It includes in-depth interviews, reference checks, and background verification. We want to make sure all our tutors have passion for their subject, profound expertise, and adaptable teaching methods.
We incorporate a diverse range of resources into our Geography sessions to make them engaging and worthwhile. Above all, we rely on personalised study plans. They are developed for each student individually to meet their specific needs and learning goals. For example, if you are a visual learner, you can expect such resources as satellite imagery, diagrams or videos illustrating geographical processes.
We also find it important to offer past examination materials. They are extremely useful to help you understand question types and assessment criteria. Our IB Geography tutors complement them with the best exam strategies, as well as provide their feedback on your performance with past papers.
Case studies are another crucial element of our approach. We maintain a database of geographical examples from around the world. These real-world scenarios can help you apply theoretical concepts to actual events and places.
Overall, our resources range from reputable Geographic websites and academic journals to relevant datasets. All these materials are carefully selected to align with the current IB Geography curriculum and examination requirements.
You can easily book a trial IB Geography tutoring session. All you need to do is call us at +41 22 731 8148 or email .
Before we arrange a tutor, we would like to discuss your current geographical understanding, identify specific areas where you need support, and learn about your learning preferences. This information helps us match you with the perfect tutor for your needs.
The trial lesson gives you a risk-free opportunity to get to know what tutoring is like. This means, in particular, that you can experience the pace of the lesson or the types of exercises. After your trial, we welcome your feedback to ensure you’re completely satisfied with the match. If you decide to continue, we’ll create a tutoring schedule that accommodates your other IB commitments and preparation timeline.
We specialise in one-on-one IB Geography tutoring since it allows for a highly personalised learning experience.
Individual tutoring lets us fully customise each session. For example, if you struggle to understand atmospheric processes, your tutor can dedicate the entire session to breaking down challenging concepts until it clicks. You are free to ask questions and engage in productive discussions. Ultimately, with one-on-one tutoring, it is easy to adopt a learning pace that works for you.
During your individual sessions, your IB Geography tutor will provide immediate feedback. This ongoing assessment helps identify misconceptions and gaps early and reinforces correct understanding.
While group learning has its own benefits, the ability to address your individual learning needs makes one-on-one tutoring the optimal approach for achieving excellent results.
