About the programme

Research, guided step by step

Whether you are tackling a school or university project, working on an EPQ, preparing your IB Extended Essay or taking your first steps into academic research, Private Tutorship gives you expert guidance, clear accountability and personalised support at every stage.

Research can feel overwhelming at the beginning. Where do I start? How do I find reliable sources? Is my question too broad? How do I bring everything together into a strong final piece? This is where one-to-one mentorship makes a real difference.

With an experienced mentor you will define a focused research question, create a clear and structured plan, evaluate academic sources, develop convincing arguments and present your work with confidence. By the end you will have a polished written piece of up to 5,000 words, and the time-management, academic writing and independent thinking skills to match.
