About Mid-IB Revision Courses
Our Mid-IB Revision courses programme is a 5-week intensive review programme that helps students consolidate what they learned at the end of IB 1 and move strongly into IB 2.
All topics in the IB 1 curriculum are reviewed. Weak areas are identified and extra work is done. Preparation for IB 2 topics begins.
Support is also provided for IA projects. IAs started in the IB 1 period are reviewed and improved.
Mock exams are used to assess the student's current standing. Personalised study plans are created towards target scores.
Our programme is held during the summer break between IB 1 and IB 2 (June-July).
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.

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.
Process & Support

Academic language and citation
Thesis, evidence integration, academic tone and citation style (MLA / APA / Chicago) are chosen together.
Final check and submission
Final read-through, format check and a submission timeline aligned with school deadlines are planned together.

How One-to-One Lessons Work
The general structure of Mid-IB Revision Courses 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.
