What Our Students Are Saying.

 

“My daughter has enrolled into IB Lounge since the beginning of the year. 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.”

— Ms Xylia Tay, Parent of an SJI Student

“Being the first time having a child in IB curriculum, I was clueless and does not help that his grades are 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 is 10 months away. The tutor Seng Woo connects with 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, coz he has tried. Thank you Markus and Seng Woo!”

— Ms Joy Lim, Parent of an ACS Student

“I was introduced to IB Lounge through a friend's A-level Economics tutor, whom I had asked in a fair amount of desperation as to whether he knew any tuition centers which would be accepting students fairly late into Y6. I was enthusiastic to start classes, given the reasonable rates and predicament I was in with regards to my Econs grades for prelims.

However, I kept my expectations realistic, given that the tutors had recently graduated from IB as well. Presently, it is safe to say that my initial expectations were more than exceeded; and that became evident to me from the very first lesson.

My tutor was able to find the balance between friendliness and familiarity with the intensity and rigor of teaching, and always kept us students in mind, asking whether his pace was appropriate for our understanding. I realised that him, having taken IB himself, and the recency of it meant that he was extremely familiar and adept with the subject of Econs, and more importantly, he knew how to approach answering an exam question with adequate efficiency; to maximise the marks attained whilst managing time.

Furthermore, he had resources prepared for us to supplement our learning. Given the short time frame before the beginning of the IB exams, it was really helpful to not have to write and compile personal notes for the many topics within Econs. He collects and marks the essays we do as homework, and provides in-depth, detailed feedback, to ensure that we understand our shortcomings and areas for improvement.

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, all thanks to the hard work and genuine care from the tutors. I would thoroughly recommend them to my juniors, or anyone who would want to strengthen their grasp of the Economics subject, and exponentially improve on their answering techniques for the Econs exam.”

“My son has been with IB lounge for three months now and the results have been good. My son's writings have improved with much better ease in getting started. He has learnt more about History and organizations of information. Mostly importantly, he enjoyed the classes and want to continue them even after his summer holidays.

IB lounge communicates with me via whatsapp, emails and the frequency and quality of communications are good. Overall, I highly recommend their services to any student who are looking to improve their IB scores and general studying skills.”

“Honestly the tutors are pretty good. They literally went through the whole IB Experience and pretty much knows how IB works. Honestly would reccomend to friends as IB Lounge has such great tutors and notes that can help with IB!”

-Ming Han, St. Joseph’s Instutition (Independent)

“As a student under ib lounge, i'm very satisfied with the great help the tutors have given me in helping to better my learning and the vast amount of resources i am provided with to better understand content that is taught in school. in addition, the tutors have prior experience in being in the ib program, thus they are able to give personalised advice for other non-academic parts of the curriculum, like university admissions. i'm grateful to have met this community of tutors and i recommend anyone looking for ib tuition to check them out!!”

-Yi Qiang, St. Joseph’s Instutition (Independent)

 

“I find the teachers in IB Lounge especially helpful in clarifying the most basic of concepts and questions and especially for math, I appreciate how they go through common mistakes made by students in a way that is easy to learn and remember. Also, 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! Highly recommended! I am sure the tutors will be able to help you achieve your best grade in the IB :)”

— Esther Chua, Anglo Chinese School (International)

“Coming into the 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. It allowed me to learn and catch on a lot more quickly and for the first time I felt like I had substantially improved. Moreover, with each concept that we covered he made sure to refresh what we went through so far to reinforce the idea in my head and got it to stick. He also probed me a lot of times in order to make sure that I had fully grasped what he was teaching. The notes were well organized and easy to digest too; the content was very well organized and coupled with the essay planning skills that our tutor went through with us, I am fairly confident in scoring in my econs essay tests now.”

— Christian, St. Joseph’s Institution (Independent)

“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 on the subject because he was a graduate of the new IB syllabus. Overall the experience with IB Lounge was great.”

- Kailash, Dulwich College

 

“In the IB Lounge, the tutor was very welcoming and engaging during the lesson. He listened to our queries and our 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 during that lesson. I felt that really helped me to focus and make my own notes so that I can remember what I learnt. I also felt that the environment which the tuition was set in was very conducive for studying and there were no distractions that I was faced with. Overall, I felt that this tuition was very beneficial as it provided a conducive environment for me to study in and the tutor was kind and helped me clarify my doubts. I will definitely recommend this tuition to my friends that require help in their studies.”

“Didn't know what was happening in math class. I now know.”

-Jaelle, Anglo Chinese School (International)

“Very helpful with good communication and clear in-depth explanations :>”

-Phoebe, Anglo Chinese School (International)

“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. I'm extremely grateful for the passionate tutors and will highly recommend anyone who is struggling in Biology to try out IB lounge.”

-Beverly Yeo, Raffles

“the 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 was hard to communicate with them. However, with the IB lounge I now was able to obtain guidance from a peer who had the same troubles that I once had and it has truly made all the difference”

-Martin Ng, St. Joseph’s Instutition (Independent)


I attend SL Math classes here and I find it extremely beneficial. Unlike other tuition centers, the tutors have first hand experience with the IB syllabus. My tutor, Rethik is a former SJI IB student. Thus, 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's more conducive as the tutor can give more attention. Thanks to IB lounge, I find it much easier to understand and tackle SL Math.

- Nicholas, St Joseph’s Institution Singapore



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

I came into the ib lounge unsure as to what I should expect. However, I felt immediately at home as the tutor was very friendly and forthcoming! The classroom was the perfect size for conducive learning and 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 and I am glad that I managed to leave the class having understood the topic much better than I did during my class in school! The tutor also provided some useful ib-style questions to test our understanding on the topic which made me realise some gaps in my knowledge, which I managed to clarify with the tutor right away! Overall, I feel the tutors are very friendly, classes are extremely productive, and classrooms are very accessible and conducive for learning!! Highly recommend!

-Rohan Jaggi, St Joseph’s Institution (Independent)

Great tuition center 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!

- Felix Tala, Dalwich College

I attend classes for HL physics here and they have been really helpful for me so far! I used to attend another tuition centre but because they focused on O/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 a first hand experience with it as he can give more relevant tips about the curriculum! On top of that, the notes are very helpful in breaking down more complex topics and my tutor always explains them clearly so I can understand better. I would highly recommend IB lounge to any current IB student looking for a tuition centre :)
