FAMILIAR SCHOOLS. INDIVIDUAL GOALS.
We’ve helped IB students across Barcelona and the surrounding area, and continue to support families here today. Schools attended by students we’ve supported include The British School of Barcelona, Hamelin-Laie, Agora Sant Cugat and St Peter’s.
From Barcelona itself to Castelldefels, Montgat and Sant Cugat del Vallès, online lessons bring your tutor to wherever you learn. Your schoolwork, teacher feedback and goals give each lesson its starting point.
Some students are building confidence in the MYP; others are making the step into the Diploma or preparing for final exams. We match the support to your own programme and level, with time to work through the ideas you find challenging.

Good IB tutoring starts with the right person and a clear focus. We connect students in Barcelona with subject specialists, build lessons around their schoolwork and stay involved as their needs change.
A challenging HL topic calls for someone who knows its depth; MYP support needs an approach suited to that stage. Online lessons give us a wider pool of IB tutors and teachers to draw from, so your course and learning needs guide the match.
Fit tutoring around school, activities and assessment deadlines. Join from home in Barcelona, Sant Cugat or along the coast, with times agreed with your tutor. If you travel during the school holidays, you can keep working with the same person online.
Move from following a solution to explaining it yourself. Your tutor helps you identify the step that is missing, connect it to what you already know and practise on a related question. The aim is understanding you can use in class and in your exams.
We take time over your tutor match and stay involved after the trial. Share feedback, discuss changing priorities or ask for help finding a better fit. You have a team to turn to as well as your tutor.
