We Can make the difference
NimaI went from 43% in first year to receiving a masters offer at the LSE! Having almost failed my first year I decided to get tutoring from The Profs in my second year. Thanks to the brilliant quality of the tutors I managed to score a 1st in my second year and receive an offer for the LSE Masters in Management. A big thank you to The Profs.

IB Tutors: Frequently Asked Questions
The Profs' IB tutors for the IB Diploma are subject specialists, not generalists from a broad directory. Each tutor is selected through one of the UK tutoring sector’s strictest vetting processes and is matched to the student’s specific IB pathway - Standard Level (SL) or Higher Level (HL), subject combination, and target grade. That means tuition is tailored to IB assessment objectives, Internal Assessment (IA) expectations, Extended Essay (EE) requirements and TOK where relevant, delivering exam-focused support from the first lesson.
What is The Profs' IB tutor vetting process?
The Profs operates a rigorous selection process in which only 3% of applicants are accepted. Every IB tutor meets the following standards before being matched with a student:
- Holds a university degree; 98% hold postgraduate qualifications and 45% hold doctorates
- Minimum two years' teaching or tutoring experience; the network average is over 10 years
- All tutors undergo identity verification, Enhanced DBS check and KYC
- Many tutors are current or former IB coordinators, examiners or subject teachers with direct experience of IBO assessment criteria
- Each tutor is vetted specifically against the student’s IB subject, SL/HL level and the components they need help with (IA, EE, TOK, exam technique)
What IB-specific experience do The Profs' tutors bring to Diploma students?
IB Diploma students need subject mastery plus familiarity with IB-specific assessment. The Profs’ tutors bring:
- Deep academic knowledge of IB subjects at SL and HL
- Practical experience of IB mark schemes, internal assessment marking conventions and common candidate errors
- A structured teaching approach that builds concept understanding rather than rote learning
- Adaptable lesson plans matched to the student’s learning style, pacing and IB deadlines
Lessons focus on independent study skills, IA and EE planning, and exam technique so students perform under real IB conditions.
The Profs measures outcomes and publishes consistent improvement figures. Across school-aged tuition, 92% of students report a grade improvement after sustained tutoring. The Profs also maintains a 4.9/5 Trustpilot rating since 2016, reflecting high client satisfaction with IB outcomes.
How much progress can an IB Diploma student make with The Profs in a term?
Most IB students working with The Profs make measurable improvements within a term. Progress is tracked and structured, with tutors concentrating on:
- Diagnosing gaps across syllabus topics and IA/EE requirements early
- Building knowledge in line with IB Assessment Objectives for SL and HL
- Developing exam technique, timing and question-response strategy
- Reducing last-minute cramming through consistent term-time support and revision plans
Typical study commitment recommendations align with The Profs’ internal data: short-term boosts for imminent exams, or 20–40 hours across a term to secure substantive grade gains.
What is The Profs' track record for IB subjects and results?
The Profs has a strong track record across IB subjects and related qualifications. Key signals of performance include:
- High client satisfaction: 4.9/5 on Trustpilot since 2016
- Robust grade-improvement metrics: 92% of school-aged students report improvements*
- Many students supported by The Profs go on to offers from top UK universities, including Russell Group and Oxbridge-level offers where appropriate
