Job Description
IGCSE tuition jobs at IB Gram are freelance engagements teaching Cambridge (CAIE) or Pearson Edexcel IGCSE students in Years 9 and 10. You apply once, list your board, subjects and tier, pass an ID and credential check, then receive matched students. Home tuition is 50-50 for the first month and 100% yours after; online is 70% yours. Payouts land on the 1st of each month.
IGCSE is where most international-school students meet a public examination for the first time, and it is where a lot of confident students suddenly stop coping. The syllabus is broader than most national curricula at the same age, the papers reward precision in a way school tests often do not, and the two-year course ends in a terminal exam series that decides sixth-form and IB Diploma entry.
That is the work. Families rarely want general help — they want someone who knows their board's papers, has seen their mark schemes, and can tell them whether their child should be entered for the Core or the Extended tier. We match on exactly those details.
You are an independent professional here, not an employee. You decide which students you take, how many hours you teach, whether you teach online or travel to a home, and what you charge. We find the students, arrange the free demo class, collect the fees and pay you monthly.
What IGCSE tutors earn and what we take
You set your fee and we publish it; families see it before they book, so the demo class is about teaching rather than negotiating. IGCSE rates sit a little below DP Higher Level in most markets, but the volume is higher and the work is far less seasonal, so a full IGCSE timetable is usually easier to build and keep.
Our share depends only on the mode. Home tuition is split 50-50 for the first month, and from month two you keep every rupee for as long as you teach that student. Online is a flat 70/30 in your favour, every month, with no first-month discount.
The split in force when a student starts is locked for that student. Any change to these terms is announced at least 30 days in advance and applies only to students who start afterwards.
Responsibilities
- Teach IGCSE students one to one, matched to you by programme, subject and level before you accept.
- Plan each session around the student's current school unit rather than a fixed syllabus of your own.
- Prepare students for the assessment model of their stage, including internal assessment and exam technique where it applies.
- Set and publish your own fee, and decline any student who is not a fit.
- Keep agreed session times, and give notice through IB Gram if a session must move.
- Report progress to the family at the review points agreed at the start of the engagement.
- Teach online across time zones using your own device and connection.
Requirements
- Subject command at IGCSE level and above. A degree or teaching qualification in the subject, or a track record of IGCSE results. You should be comfortable a level above what you teach, so an A* student never outruns you.
- Knowledge of at least one board's assessment. You should be able to name the papers in your subject, say what each one tests, and explain how marks are awarded. Knowing both Cambridge and Edexcel is a real advantage; knowing one properly is the minimum.
- Government photo ID for verification. Uploaded and reviewed before your profile goes live. This is an identity check, not a police or criminal-records check, and your profile says exactly that rather than implying more.
- A working setup for your chosen mode. Online needs stable broadband, a camera, a microphone and a quiet professional space — plus a graphics tablet or document camera for anything with working out. Home tuition needs reliable travel to the areas you list.
Nice To Have
- Experience in an international school. Weighted in review and valued by parents, but we accept strong subject specialists from national-curriculum backgrounds who have learned the board's assessment.
- Examiner or marking experience. Cambridge or Edexcel marking experience is the single strongest signal on an IGCSE profile. We display it once evidenced and it lets you charge more.
