Practice
Apply what you’ve learned
Try a question using the method or ideas covered in class. Discuss why an approach works and where you need to adjust your reasoning.
Answer skills
Make your answers clearer
Practise responding to the question asked, showing your working and supporting explanations with evidence. Use feedback to identify missing steps or details.

Before you enquire
A few useful answers.
Can you find a tutor for my IB programme and subject?
Tell us your programme, subject, year of study and current topics. We check the course content and tutor availability before confirming a match. Include a course outline if you have one.
What do SL and HL mean?
In the Diploma Programme, SL means Standard Level and HL means Higher Level. Include your level when requesting a tutor so we can check the content and depth of support you need.
Which details should I share for IB Mathematics?
For Diploma Mathematics, tell us whether you study Analysis and Approaches (AA) or Applications and Interpretation (AI), and whether you take Standard Level or Higher Level. Include your assessment year and current topics.
What should I bring to a lesson?
Bring relevant class notes, practice questions or marked work, along with feedback from your teacher. Point out where you got stuck and share any upcoming assessment dates.
Can I arrange regular lessons or help before an exam?
Yes. Request ongoing support during your course or lessons ahead of an assessment. Tell us your preferred times and deadlines so we can discuss a schedule with the tutor match.
Can a tutor help with assessed coursework?
Share your school’s rules on outside assistance first. Within those rules, a tutor can explain concepts and help you understand your approach. You must develop and submit your own work; tutoring does not include writing or completing assessments for you.
Where can I meet a tutor in person?
Share your location in Cape Town or the surrounding service areas. We confirm tutor availability, the meeting place and travel arrangements before booking.
Can I take online lessons outside Cape Town?
Yes. Online tutoring is available across South Africa. Choose Online in the enquiry form, or Either if both lesson formats work for you.
