Why do our tutors cost what they do?
They are all experienced qualified teachers.
Many of our school entrance tutors have significant experience and track records in preparing students for competitive school entrance exams

They have achieved academic excellence themselves
Many of our tutors have achieved other relevant skills such as qualifications to assist students with special educational needs
How can I save money when using an Owl Tutor
Consider online tuition if you have not already done so. Most students at KS2 or above will have no problem engaging just as efficiently with an online tutor than a face to face one. Face to face tuition can be up to 50% more expensive for the same tutor!
Consider shorter sessions. Most tuition sessions are one hour. 40 minute sessions can often be effective and could reduce your fees by 33%.
Find out if there are times that you can offer to your tutor that are more convenient for them. Most tutors find it difficult to fill their hours during the day (9am to 3pm) in the week. Many of them will accept lower rates at these times.
How do our fees work?
Our tutors set the rates that they wish to be paid on each job. The rate that they will request will be dependent on a number of factors including:
The rate they wish to earn per hour
Whether the job is face to face or online
How much preparation time is required for each session
The tutor's remaining availability

IB, particularly Analysis and Approaches, is Aleksandra's main interest and she is really enjoys seeing her students becoming true IB learners - independent, reflective and balances thinkers. Aleksandra prefers to lead by example and motivate students to be risk-takers and decision-makers, instead of just following the rules.

IB Experience
At St. Andrews Aleksandra taught both AA and AI courses in the International School in the Bahamas. In her AA class she had 2 students who were covering the higher level, so she covered the topics from the higher level both in class and outside the classroom.
Aleksandra also organised IB maths clinic to support her students who struggled with the content. IB AA is a challenging course and Aleksandra always made sure that she discussed "sneaky" and "unusual" problem solving questions with her students in depth, making sure they are confident and have tools to solve similar kind of problems on their own.
Aleksandra favourite topic from the AI course is Voronoi diagrams which connects maths and history beautifully and proof by induction from the AA course higher level.
