What it costs

A programme for each situation

A repeated year at an international school typically starts at $30,000. That is what these programmes are measured against.

$100 an hour, the same for every student, every subject and every format, and the same however you buy.

The path to the target grade

For a grade that has to move by the end of the year, not by next week.

20 hours · $2,000

Exam preparation

For a fixed date: the IGCSE or IB session, or the weeks before mocks.

10 hours · $1,000

Catching up and realigning

For one specific gap: a topic that never landed, or the first weeks after a change of curriculum.

5 hours · $500

One lesson at a time costs the same. What a programme adds is a target agreed at the start, a slot held for you, and the grade followed over time.
