What parents tell us.

Multi-subject tuition
Both her tutors, Rethik and Mark, were able to explain techniques that were difficult for her to grasp. Through their constant encouragement and guidance, she has improved tremendously. As a parent, I am heartened to know that my daughter has benefited from the tuition.

Full IB coaching
Being the first time having a child in IB curriculum, I was clueless and it did not help that his grades were at the lower range. We decided to try IB Lounge this April, in the midst of COVID and the tremendous anxiety that the final exam was ten months away. The tutor Seng Woo connects with my son instantly and his constant encouragement helps. I saw my son putting in effort to the last, and whatever the IB final exam result is, does not really matter because he has tried. Thank you Markus and Seng Woo.

History · Essay technique
My son has been with IB Lounge for three months now and the results have been good. His writing has improved with much better ease in getting started. He has learnt more about History and the organisation of information. Most importantly, he enjoyed the classes and wants to continue them even after his summer holidays. IB Lounge communicates with me via WhatsApp and email. The frequency and quality of communication are good.

What students tell us.

HL Economics
My tutor was able to find the balance between friendliness and familiarity with the intensity and rigour of teaching, and always kept us students in mind, asking whether his pace was appropriate for our understanding. Having taken IB himself, and the recency of it, meant that he was extremely familiar and adept with Econs. More importantly, he knew how to approach answering an exam question with adequate efficiency, to maximise the marks attained whilst managing time. IB Lounge has not only given me the opportunity to improve on my grades, but also allowed me to transition from despair to enthusiasm for the upcoming IB exams.

Mathematics
I find the teachers in IB Lounge especially helpful in clarifying the most basic of concepts and questions. For Math, I appreciate how they go through common mistakes made by students in a way that is easy to learn and remember. The teachers are really patient in explaining simple and harder concepts, and given that they've also gone through the IB, the entire experience makes it very relatable.

IB programme
Honestly the tutors are pretty good. They literally went through the whole IB experience and pretty much know how IB works. Honestly would recommend to friends as IB Lounge has such great tutors and notes that can help with IB.

IB + university admissions
As a student under IB Lounge, I am very satisfied with the great help the tutors have given me in bettering my learning and the vast amount of resources I am provided with. The tutors have prior experience in being in the IB programme, thus they are able to give personalised advice for other non-academic parts of the curriculum, like university admissions.

HL Economics
Coming into IB Lounge for the first time, I felt quite nervous as I knew my foundations for Economics were very shaky. However, the tutor was really friendly and explained concepts in a manner that was easy to understand. With each concept that we covered he made sure to refresh what we went through to reinforce the idea in my head. He also probed me many times to make sure I had fully grasped what he was teaching. The notes were well organised and easy to digest. I am fairly confident in scoring in my Econs essay tests now.

Subject tuition
The tutor shared insightful tips and didn't waste time. The content was already in note format with space to make your own. The learning space was great and I was comfortable to ask the tutor every single question I had, with ease. The learning was interactive and drew on knowledge from other topics. The tutor was very knowledgeable. He was a graduate of the new IB syllabus.

Group tuition
The tutor was very welcoming and engaging during the lesson. He listened to our queries and misconceptions, and patiently worked with my friend and I to correct our mistakes. He also gave us notes that were a summary for the topic we would be learning. The environment which the tuition was set in was very conducive for studying.

HL Biology
IB Lounge has been really helpful especially with their Biology lessons. The tutor is both engaging yet detailed when it comes to explaining the various chapters. The lessons do not only include the teaching of content from the textbook, but also challenging questions that are commonly found in tests.

Peer-to-peer guidance
IB Lounge is a unique and fresh experience. Being an IB student, a problem was that while tutors knew of our syllabus, they were never in the course itself and thus it was hard to communicate with them. However, with IB Lounge I was able to obtain guidance from a peer who had the same troubles that I once had. It has truly made all the difference.

SL Mathematics
I attend SL Math classes here and I find it extremely beneficial. Unlike other tuition centres, the tutors have first-hand experience with the IB syllabus. My tutor, Rethik, is a former SJI IB student. They are better able to teach and give relevant tips about the whole IB experience. The class is very small with only 3 people, so it is more conducive.

Subject tuition
The lessons here are very beneficial. The tutors know what they are doing and are always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that their students get the highest quality lessons.

Subject tuition
The tutor was very prepared for class and all our questions. Although I had some basic questions to ask about the topic we were doing, the tutor was happy to answer all of them. The tutor also provided some useful IB-style questions to test our understanding, which made me realise some gaps in my knowledge that I managed to clarify right away.

IB Biology
Great tuition centre with very knowledgeable teachers. They knew exactly what to focus on as well as what is usually present in the exams for IB Bio. Would recommend.

HL Physics
I attend classes for HL Physics here and they have been really helpful. I used to attend another tuition centre but because they focused on O or A levels, some of their classes were not as relevant for me. With IB Lounge, my current tutor Mark is a former IB student and it really helps that he has first-hand experience with it. The notes are very helpful in breaking down more complex topics.
