You can cancel a lesson package at any time. Lessons already given are charged at the single-lesson price and the rest is refunded. The first-lesson guarantee applies on top.

We do not offer free trial lessons. Payment is required before your first lesson.

Your 14-day right of withdrawal

Private tutoring. If you are a consumer, you can withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period ends 14 days after the day the contract is concluded, which is the day you complete the payment. At checkout you expressly request that the lessons may start before the withdrawal period ends, and you acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal once the service has been fully provided. If you withdraw after lessons have started, private lessons already given are charged at the single-lesson price, the lessons already held in a group course or private group are charged in proportion to the course, and the rest is refunded (Directive 2011/83/EU, Article 14(3)). Once all the lessons you bought have been given, the right of withdrawal ends (Article 16(a)). Our guarantees in section 7 go further and apply in addition; where both apply, you get whichever is better for you.

IB private-group programmes

Pre-IB preparation

Prepare for the move into the Diploma Programme with subject foundations, study techniques and an introduction to how IB work is assessed, in a private group you form with your friends.

See private-group prices
  • Usually in the summer before IB1; we set the dates with your group
  • An introduction to IB assessment and its command terms
  • An overview of TOK and the Extended Essay
  • Guidance on HL and SL subject choices
  • An introduction to IB academic writing
  • A private group of three or more friends at Pre-IB's own fee per student, set by the number of subjects (1 to 4); 10 live lessons of 90 minutes (15 hours) in each subject

For students about to start IB1 who want to build their subject knowledge and understand what the programme will ask of them.

Mid-IB revision

Review your first-year learning with your own group before starting IB2. Identify gaps, revisit difficult topics and prepare for the demands of the exam year.

See private-group prices
  • Usually in the summer between IB1 and IB2; we set the dates with your group
  • A review of IB1 that finds the topics you are missing
  • A head start on IB2 topics
  • Feedback on IA drafts and guidance on developing your work
  • A mock exam to review your current performance
  • A private group of three or more friends at MID-IB's own fee per student, set by the number of subjects (1 to 4); 20 live lessons of 90 minutes (30 hours) in each subject

For students who have finished IB1 and want to consolidate their learning and make progress with their IA before IB2.

IB Revision

Bring your revision together before the May exams with systematic topic review, past-paper practice and analysis of what earns marks. Friends who want regular group lessons during the school year set up a private group the same way.

See private-group prices
  • Intensive revision in the weeks before the exams
  • Every topic revised, one by one
  • Worked past papers and mark-scheme analysis
  • Paper-specific strategies for your subject and HL or SL level
  • Weekly mock exams with error analysis
  • A private group of three or more friends; the fee per student is set by the number of subjects (1 to 4), 30 hours of live lessons in each subject

For students approaching their final IB exams who need a structured revision timetable and focused exam practice.

Refunds and withdrawal

If you are not satisfied after the lessons held in the first week, we refund your payment in full. After the first week, group course fees are not refunded. Each group is built around its enrolled students: the class size, the tutor and the timetable are set for them, and when one student leaves, the course changes for everyone else in the group. This does not affect your legal right to withdraw within 14 days of payment: if you withdraw in that period after lessons have started, the lessons already held are charged in proportion to the course and the rest is refunded.

A group opens when enough students have enrolled. If there are not enough enrolments, you choose what happens to your payment: a full refund, a place in the next group to start, or one-to-one lessons of the same value.

We do not offer free trial lessons. Payment is required before your first lesson.

Candidates sitting in November 2026 can still take a World Studies EE.
CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service)———Not graded; an experiential learning component that must be completed to earn the diploma.

IB Scoring (max 45)

The IBDP total is the sum of the 1–7 grades from each of the six subjects (max 42) plus 0–3 bonus points from TOK and the EE (max 45). University entry thresholds vary by institution and programme, and many universities also set minimum grades in specific HL subjects.

  • 7
    Excellent — the IBDP's top grade band, defined by the subject grade descriptors the IB publishes.
  • 6
    Very good — the grade band many selective universities ask for at HL.
  • 5
    Good — a common university entry threshold.
  • 4
    Satisfactory — basic competence; some universities require a minimum of 4 at HL/SL.
  • 3
    Mediocre — acceptable for the diploma but limiting for competitive applications.
  • 2
    Poor — weak performance in the subject.
  • 1
    Very poor — puts the diploma requirements at risk.
