IB DP Mathematics tutoring for London students
London is one of the largest IB DP markets in Europe — schools like Sevenoaks (Kent), ACS Cobham (Surrey), Southbank International, the International School of London, and Whitgift offer the Diploma alongside or instead of UK A Levels. London IB students typically aim at Oxbridge, Imperial, UCL, LSE, plus US Ivy League and European top schools where the IB's breadth and TOK/Extended Essay components carry weight. Our online IB Maths tutors deliver lessons in GMT/BST aligned to both AA and AI at HL and SL, with structured Paper 3 (HL) coaching, full IA support, and past-paper drilling ahead of the May exam session.
IB DP Mathematics — AA + AI, HL + SL explained
IB DP Mathematics is offered as two parallel programmes: Analysis & Approaches (AA) — pure, proof-led, leading to STEM and Maths-heavy degrees — and Applications & Interpretations (AI) — modelling-led, leaning into statistics, technology, and real-world data. Each programme runs at Higher Level (HL, 240 teaching hours) and Standard Level (SL, 150 hours). Most universities accept any of the four, but specific degrees (e.g. Maths, Physics, Engineering at top universities) typically require AA HL.
Higher Level (HL)
240 teaching hours · 3 papers · IA
HL Maths (both AA and AI) is three papers totalling 5 hours plus the Internal Assessment. Paper 1 (no calculator, AA only) tests pure technique. Paper 2 (calculator) tests application. Paper 3 (extended response, HL only) is a problem-solving deep-dive worth 20% of the final grade.
Standard Level (SL)
150 teaching hours · 2 papers · IA
SL Maths (both AA and AI) is two papers totalling 3 hours plus the Internal Assessment. Paper 1 is non-calculator for AA, calculator for AI. Paper 2 is calculator for both. No Paper 3 at SL.

Internal Assessment (IA)
The Mathematics Internal Assessment (IA) is a 12–20 page mathematical exploration worth 20% of the final grade. Students choose a topic, formulate a question, apply mathematical methods, and reflect on findings. Strong IAs make a real difference at the 6/7 boundary — our tutors coach the full IA cycle from topic selection through final draft.
Exam sessions
Two main IB exam sessions: May (Northern Hemisphere schools, the larger session) and November (Southern Hemisphere). Students sit all exams within a 2-3 week window. Re-takes are possible at the next session.
Grading on the IB 1–7 scale
IB grades each subject on a 1–7 scale. Final IB Diploma total is 45 points (6 subjects × 7 + 3 bonus points from TOK + Extended Essay). Grade 7 in HL Maths AA typically requires around 80% on the externals plus a strong IA score.
What we cover one-to-one
- ✓Number and algebra — sequences, series, logarithms, complex numbers (HL)
- ✓Functions — domain/range, transformations, modelling
- ✓Geometry and trigonometry — vectors (HL), 3D geometry
- ✓Statistics and probability — distributions, hypothesis testing, regression
- ✓Calculus — differentiation, integration, differential equations (HL)
- ✓Discrete mathematics and graph theory (AI HL only)
- ✓Proof — direct, by contradiction, by induction (AA HL)
- ✓IA support — topic ideation, mathematical exploration, reflection
Where IB DP Maths leads
- →Top universities globally — IB DP is the most widely recognised pre-university qualification, accepted in 90+ countries
- →STEM degrees — AA HL Maths is the gold standard for Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, Economics at top universities
- →Business and social science degrees — AI HL or AA SL is typically sufficient
- →Strong IB scores (38+) make competitive applications to Ivy League, Oxbridge, Imperial, NUS, NTU, McGill, UBC, Toronto

Which London IB World Schools teach Mathematics HL and SL?
IB-authorised schools in and around London teaching the full Maths AA/AI HL/SL range include Sevenoaks School (Kent), ACS Cobham (Surrey), Southbank International School, the International School of London (ISL), Whitgift School (Croydon), and several state-funded IB schools across the capital. Each typically offers all four maths variants.
How does the IB Diploma compare to UK A Levels for UK university applications?
All UK universities accept the IB Diploma. Top universities (Oxbridge, Imperial, UCL, LSE) publish equivalent IB requirements — typically 38–40 points with 6/7 in HL subjects. The IB's breadth (six subjects + TOK + EE + CAS) is valued, but A Level depth in three subjects can be equally competitive. The right choice depends on the student's strengths and target degree.
Can a tutor help with the Mathematics Internal Assessment (IA)?
Yes — we coach the full Mathematics IA cycle from topic selection (with examples that score 6/7) through to the final 12–20 page exploration. The IA is worth 20% of the final grade and a strong score is often what separates a 6 from a 7 in HL Maths.
What does an online IB DP Maths tutor cost in London?
Online IB DP Mathematics tutors at Tutopiya typically range from £30 to £90 per hour depending on tutor seniority and IA support intensity. We share a clear quote after the free trial.
