IB Tutors in DLF Crest, Gurugram

For Diploma work, generally yes, and sometimes better. Internal assessment drafting, extended essay scoping and past-paper technique are document-and-discussion tasks, and a shared screen holds the question, the markscheme and the student script side by side in a way a dining table cannot. The gap appears elsewhere: practical set-up, handwriting speed under timed conditions, and students who need physical presence to start working. If your DP student already works independently, online usually buys the better tutor rather than the nearer one.

It adds a step, not a problem. Ask whether your tower allows a tutor to be registered for the term rather than approved on each visit, since a fifteen-minute wait at the gate takes a real bite out of an hour. Share the gate and parking details with the tutor before the first session. On that first visit it is reasonable to ask to see the identification the platform verified. After that the routine settles and entry stops being a topic at all.

Value depends on what is scarce for you. Online removes travel from the fee structure and widens the choice of tutor, so for a narrow higher level subject it usually buys more expertise per rupee. A home visit carries travel time, which is reflected in the rate, and buys presence and accountability that some students genuinely need. The expensive option is neither of those: it is paying for months of sessions with a tutor who does not know the assessment at your child level.

Both, usually. A report reflects classwork, participation and completed tasks. Feeling lost is often about the gap between following a lesson and producing a criterion-matched response alone. That gap stays invisible on a report until an assessment lands. Take her seriously and ask for a recent marked task rather than the grade, then look at which criterion the marks stop at. A student who says she is lost while still scoring adequately is usually right about where things are heading.

Yes, and it is a sensible order for some families. Starting online lets you judge the tutor assessment knowledge without the scheduling commitment of a home visit, and if it works you may find you never need to change. Moving to home sessions later depends on that tutor travel and their schedule for the term, so raise it early rather than assuming. Some families keep both, with one visit a week and online doubt-solving in the days before a test.

At minimum a short note: what was covered, what the student found hard, and what to practise before the next session. For Diploma work, an annotated script or draft is more useful than a summary. This is also your main window into whether the sessions are doing anything, particularly online, so agree it in the first week rather than complaining about its absence in the second month. A tutor unwilling to send anything in writing is telling you something worth hearing.

Tutors on the platform have taught students from a range of Gurugram IB campuses, and some may have worked with students at Lancers International School, Pathways World School, Scottish High International School or GD Goenka World School. That describes experience only. IB Gram is an independent tutoring platform and is not officially affiliated with any of those schools unless specifically stated, and no tutor should ever be presented to you as school-approved or school-recommended.

Earlier than feels necessary, because mock weeks are when every family in the same cohort asks at once and tutor schedules tighten. Four to six weeks ahead is comfortable for adding a session or two. Booking three days before is possible but limits the choice to whoever happens to be free. It is also worth deciding in advance whether the extra time is for content gaps or for timed practice, since those need different session shapes and sometimes different tutors.

Ask a direct question first: what does the tutor think is blocking progress? A useful answer names something specific, a skill, a habit, a missing foundation from an earlier year. A vague answer is itself the finding. Beyond that, look at whether work between sessions is actually happening, since two months of good teaching with no independent practice produces exactly this pattern. If neither explains it, request a different tutor. Adding hours to a match that is not working rarely helps.
