How a class works · About ClassArc · Pricing

Which IB maths course
your child is actually taking

Since 2019 the Diploma offers two maths routes, and families are often unsure which their child is on. Analysis and Approaches is the algebraic, proof-oriented route. Applications and Interpretation is modelling and statistics led, with technology used throughout.

Each runs at Standard and Higher Level, and the gap between AA HL and AI SL is very large. Tutoring that treats them as one subject helps nobody.

Tell us the course and level and we teach that syllabus. If your child is still choosing, we will talk through which route fits their strengths and their university plans.

AA+AI

Both Diploma routes, at Standard and Higher Level, plus all five MYP years.

Affordable across
both Diploma years

The Diploma is a two-year programme, and support that stops partway through is support that mostly went to waste. A price a family can carry to the final exams is the one that matters.

Affordable without being thin: a full 55 minutes, one to one, on your child's actual course and level, with Internal Assessment guidance included rather than charged separately.

No joining fee, and any unused class balance is refunded if you stop.

from
$13.50

per 55-minute, one-to-one class. The first class is free and no card is required.

Three places the marks go.

i

The wrong course,
taught well.

AA and AI reward different skills. A tutor comfortable with one is not automatically useful for the other — so we teach the syllabus your child is actually sitting.

ii

An Internal Assessment
chosen badly.

Most IA problems start with the topic: too broad, too thin mathematically, or with no genuine personal engagement behind it.

iii

Reasoning that is
never written down.

IB marks communication. Students who can do the maths still lose marks by not showing how they got there.

Support with the
IB maths exploration

We teach the mathematics and the structure. We do not write any part of the exploration — IB academic honesty rules are clear, and a tutor who offers otherwise is risking your child's diploma.

“

A tutor who writes any of the exploration is not helping. They are putting a diploma at risk for a few marks.

Where we draw the line
i
💡

A topic that works

Narrow enough to finish, mathematically rich enough to score, and genuinely connected to something your child cares about.

ii
📐

Plan the maths first

Work out which mathematics the exploration will actually use before any writing starts. Most weak IAs are written before this is settled.

iii
📋

Read the criteria together

Each criterion rewards something specific. Students lose marks to criteria they never read rather than maths they could not do.

iv
✅

Your child writes it

We review structure and mathematics and point at what is missing. The words are theirs, entirely.

Which IB maths students ClassArc can help

IB maths is five distinct courses, not one subject at different speeds. We teach the one your child is actually sitting.

IB maths, MYP through Diploma

We teach the syllabus your child is on, and prepare for the assessments that come with it.

Our own classroom,
not a video call

Most online tutoring is a video call plus a shared PDF. ClassArc built its own classroom instead.

Both write on the same interactive worksheet at once, with a shared whiteboard for taking a derivation apart line by line and answers that sync as they are entered.

Your child joins from a browser. Nothing to install.

“

IB rewards reasoning that is communicated clearly. The teacher has to see it form, not receive it finished.

Why we built our own

What actually happens
in the free first class

The first class is free, lasts the full 55 minutes, and is a real lesson. No card is required to book it.

We ask which course and level first — AA or AI, SL or HL — because they are genuinely different syllabuses. The teacher then works out where your child sits within that course, which usually means starting above the current topic and stepping back until the foundation is firm.

You will finish it knowing how the teacher handles a proof or a model and how your child responded. Knowing the specific course matters, and so does whether your child will say when a step lost them. If the fit is not right, we will arrange a second free class with a different teacher.

“

A tutor comfortable with AA HL is not automatically useful for AI SL. The free class is where you check.

What the free class is for

Six things that are
true of every class.

The Diploma runs two years. These are the things that stay constant across them.

One-to-one, always

Never a group. IB maths goes wrong in specific, individual places, and finding those takes a teacher whose attention is not divided.

The same teacher throughout

Not a marketplace tutor each session. One person who has followed your child from MYP or from the start of the Diploma and knows the pattern.

Live teaching, not a video course

Real lessons rather than a recorded series. A recording cannot see that a proof lost your child at line three.

A classroom that shows reasoning

IB awards marks for communication. Both of you write on the same sheet, so the teacher sees the argument form instead of receiving it finished.

Your actual course and level

AA and AI are different syllabuses, and AA HL and AI SL are very different courses. We ask which one before the first class and teach that.

Affordable, IA guidance included

From $13.50 a class, with Internal Assessment support built in rather than charged separately, no joining fee, and a refund on any unused balance.

IB maths guides for parents

Do you teach both Analysis and Approaches and Applications and Interpretation?
Yes, both, at Standard and Higher Level. They are genuinely different courses — AA is algebraic and proof-oriented, AI is modelling and statistics led — so we teach the specific syllabus your child is on rather than a blend.
Can you help with the Internal Assessment?
Yes, with topic choice, planning the mathematics, structure, and understanding the assessment criteria. We do not write any part of the exploration — IB academic honesty rules are clear, and a tutor who offers otherwise is putting your child's diploma at risk.
My child is choosing between AA and AI. Which should they take?
It depends on strengths and university plans. AA suits students heading towards mathematics, engineering, physics or economics, and several universities require it for those courses. AI suits students who think better through modelling and data. We are happy to talk it through in a free class.
Do you teach MYP as well as the Diploma?
Yes, all five MYP years, including criterion-based assessment practice. Starting in MYP makes the jump to Diploma HL considerably less painful.
Do you use Zoom?
No. ClassArc built its own classroom platform, with a shared interactive worksheet, a shared whiteboard and live-syncing answers. Your child joins from a browser — nothing to install and no software to keep updated.
How much does an IB maths tutor cost?
ClassArc starts at $13.50 a class on the Committed plan and $16.50 on Starter, for 55-minute one-to-one lessons with the same teacher. The first class is free and no card is required.
Is online IB maths tutoring as effective as in person?
For many students, online math tutoring can be just as effective as in-person tutoring, especially when lessons are interactive and the teacher can see the student's working in real time. Our classroom shows the teacher the reasoning as it forms, which is the part IB actually awards marks for.
How do I find an IB maths tutor who knows the syllabus?
Ask which course and level they teach most often. AA HL and AI SL are very different, and a tutor comfortable with one is not automatically useful for the other. Ask in the free first class — it is a fair question and the answer is quick.
Who is ClassArc not the right fit for?
Families who want group classes at a lower price per student, a different tutor each session from a marketplace, or a self-paced video course. We are also the wrong choice for anyone hoping a tutor will write part of the exploration — IB academic honesty rules are clear, and we will not do it.
