About IB Math HL Tutoring (AA & AI Hub)

IB Math HL is one of the most demanding courses in the IB Diploma Programme and, since 2019, has been split into two distinct syllabuses: Analysis and Approaches (AA) and Applications and Interpretation (AI). The two syllabuses differ in content, exam format, IA focus and target university programmes, which is why we maintain two separate tutoring pages for AA HL and AI HL.

Analysis and Approaches HL focuses on pure mathematics and theoretical concepts. Algebra, functions, trigonometry, advanced calculus (limits, derivatives, integrals, differential equations), complex numbers, vectors and series are its cornerstones. AA HL is ideal for students targeting careers in engineering, physics, mathematics, computer science and the theoretical sciences. Exam structure: Paper 1 (no calculator), Paper 2 (with GDC), Paper 3 (problem solving + GDC) and the Internal Assessment (a mathematical exploration).

Applications and Interpretation HL focuses on the real-world applications of mathematics. Statistics, probability, mathematical modelling, optimisation and the use of technology (especially the GDC) are at its heart. AI HL is highly suitable for students targeting business, economics, social sciences, psychology and data science. Papers 1 and 2 are done with a GDC, while Paper 3 focuses on extended modelling problems.

When deciding which syllabus to take, consider both your university goals and your current mathematical skill level. Engineering and physics applications usually expect AA HL, while business and social science programmes accept AI HL equally at many universities. If you are still deciding, our adviser will assess with you which syllabus suits your goals in a free initial consultation.

All of our IB Math HL tutoring programmes are delivered fully one-to-one through our own online teaching platform. We have experienced teachers who know the IB assessment criteria for both syllabuses. For detailed information on syllabus, exam structure, IA support and pricing for our AA HL and AI HL programmes, use the cards above to move to the relevant syllabus page.

IB assessment experience

Lessons are, wherever possible, planned with teachers who have relevant subject experience and a strong command of the IB assessment criteria. For some subjects we can offer lessons with teachers who have IB Examiner experience; matching is done based on subject, level and teacher availability.

Syllabus Topics

AA HL: Number and Algebra, Functions, Geometry & Trigonometry
AA HL: Statistics & Probability, Calculus, Further Calculus, Series, Complex Numbers
AI HL: Number and Algebra, Functions, Geometry & Trigonometry
AI HL: Statistics & Probability, Calculus (modelling-focused), HL Topics (matrices, graph theory)

Internal Assessment - mathematical exploration (Math Exploration)

About grade boundaries: IB grade boundary ranges vary noticeably by subject, level and exam session. In some subjects the proportion needed for a 7 can range between 55–85%, so the current May/November session boundary documents should be checked separately. In our one-to-one lessons we review the student's realistic grade range together using past-session boundaries and mock results.

IA / Written-Task Support

Where do one-to-one lessons provide support on the Internal Assessment and written tasks?

1

Choosing the research question

We narrow down a topic that matches the student's interests and syllabus (AA / AI) and can be developed mathematically.

2

Mathematical modelling

Moving from data to model, parameter selection and clearly writing the model's limitations are planned together.

3

Communication & Presentation

Notation, formula writing, graph labelling and logical flow are checked against the IB rubric.

4

Reflection & Personal Engagement

The process journal, discussion of alternative approaches and real-world application of the model are structured to the rubric.

Comparing Preparation Paths

The differences between self-study, group classes and one-to-one support for IB Math HL Tutoring (AA & AI Hub)

Self-study

Avantajlar

  • Flexible schedule, no extra cost
  • Self-paced progress

Limitations

  • No feedback on IA / oral / written tasks
  • Hard to spot knowledge gaps
  • Difficult to interpret the IB rubric alone

Best for?

Students with strong subject command and low need for feedback.

School / group course

Avantajlar

  • Regular schedule, peer interaction
  • Shared course materials

Limitations

  • Not planned around personal pace and target grade
  • Limited one-to-one IA / oral / written-task feedback
  • Question-by-question problem solving stays average

Best for?

Students who want a general command of the core syllabus.

One-to-one online tutoring

Avantajlar

  • A personal plan based on target grade and current level
  • One-to-one feedback on IA / oral / written tasks / past papers
  • Flexible hours, recorded lesson replays

Limitations

  • Higher cost than self-study

Best for?

Students with a clear target grade who want personalised feedback.

Study Plan Framework

A typical 4-phase structure for IB Math HL Tutoring (AA & AI Hub) in one-to-one lessons; adapted to the student's exam date.

  1. 1 — Diagnosis

    Weeks 1-2

    • Establishing current level, target grade and exam date
    • Diagnostic past paper for knowledge gaps
    • Weekly lesson and study schedule
  2. 2 — Subject mastery

    Weeks 3-12

    • Sequential concept teaching + worked examples
    • Topic-based past papers / quizzes
    • Extra revision sessions on weak topics
  3. 3 — IA / written task

    In parallel throughout the syllabus

    • RQ selection, drafting, data / evidence collection
    • Line-by-line feedback against the IB rubric
    • Revision and academic language work
  4. 4 — Exam preparation

    8-12 weeks before the exam

    • Full past paper (mock) practice
    • Mark scheme and model answer analysis
    • Time management and exam strategy

This framework is a sample plan; it is customised for each student based on exam date, target grade and current level.

How One-to-One Lessons Work

The general structure of IB Math HL Tutoring (AA & AI Hub) sessions

Starts with diagnosis

In the first session a diagnostic past paper / oral assessment clearly maps the current level and knowledge gaps.

A plan based on the target grade

A weekly lesson and study plan is made together, factoring in the student's target grade, exam date and school calendar.

Concept + problem solving

Each session has two blocks: concept consolidation and past-paper-focused problem solving.

Feedback against the IB rubric

IA, written tasks, orals and exam answers are read line by line against the IB assessment criteria, with concrete revisions suggested.

Weekly progress

A short progress summary is shared at the end of each week; the plan is revised as needed.

Recorded lesson replays

Lesson recordings can be shared on request, so students can revisit a topic during revision.
