This session will begin with Venn diagrams and conditional probability. It will include SL and HL content (clearly identified by the tutor) building into the concept of random variables.

In this session, we will review kinematic problems involving displacement, distance, velocity, and acceleration for both paper 1 and paper 2.

In this session we will look at methods to solve a variety of different types of questions including, quadratics, trigonometric, combinatorial, exponential and logarithmic. The session will be (P1) non-GDC focused and will be relevant for both SL and HL students.

This session will look at various techniques to integrate different families of quotients. It will focus on paper 1 applications and include some paper 2.

This session will look at various ways to solve differential equations to find exact solutions. It will also cover Euler’s method to find approximate solutions.

This session will review the conversion between Cartesian, polar, and exponential forms: products, quotients, and integer powers, De Moivre’s theorem, and geometrical interpretations.

In this session, we will find exact and approximate solutions to coupled differential equations. We will also sketch and interpret phase portraits, considering real and complex eigenvalues.

We will review conversion between Cartesian, polar, and exponential forms: products, quotients, and integer powers, and add sinusoidal functions with the same frequencies but different phase angles.

In this session, we will look at chi-squared tests and t-tests for SL, then tests for binomial, Poisson, and bivariate normal distributions for HL, including type I and type II errors.

In this session, we will look at mathematical modeling with a range of different functions (quadratic, cubic, exponential, sinusoidal) and investigate the key features of graphs of functions not specifically mentioned in topic 2.

This session will cover SL simple harmonic motion and then move on to the concepts of superposition, standing waves, and two-source interference.

This session will cover HL simple harmonic motion and then move on to diffraction gratings, single-slit diffraction patterns, resolution, and thin films.

In this session, we will review wave-particle duality in two aspects: how light behaves like a particle through the photoelectric effect and how matter can behave like waves, through particle diffraction.

This session will review the main ideas of gravitation and circular motion with practice problems for both featured. It will also cover the role of circular motion in other topics.

In this session, we review osmoregulation in insects and humans, including the structure & function of the Malphighian tubule system, the nephron and the kidney, as well as the role of ADH. Both Paper 1 and Paper 2 questions will also be presented.

In this session, we review mitochondrion structure and function, the stages of cellular respiration, including glycolysis, the link reaction, the Krebs cycle, electron transport, and chemiosmosis.

This session will review chloroplast structure & function. Then we’ll look at the light-dependent & light-independent reactions, including oxidative photophosphorylation and the Calvin cycle.

This session will review the hormones insulin, glucagon, melatonin, leptin, thyroxin, and the reproductive hormones involved in the menstrual cycle. This is relevant to the SL and HL courses.

We will review core content that includes reaction types for alkenes, halogenoalkanes, alcohols, and benzene. HL content will cover SN1 & SN2 mechanisms, Electrophilic Addition & Markovnikov’s rule.

This session will review kinetics, including key SL ideas (collision theory, Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution curve, and factors affecting rates) and HL content (rate expressions and mechanisms).

This session will review mass spectrometry, infrared, and NMR spectroscopy. We will practice using these tools in connection with % composition and IHD to deduce molecular structures.

This session will review Energetics HL. It includes Hess's Law, Born-Haber cycle, and building cycles with bond dissociation, formation, and combustion enthalpies to determine enthalpies of reaction.

This session will review the organic chemistry HL content, including nucleophilic substitution mechanisms (SN1 and SN2) and electrophilic additions of unsymmetrical alkenes (Markovnikov's rule).

This session will explore climate change, focusing on adaptation and mitigation strategies. We will evaluate strengths and limitations of the strategies and incorporate exam essay question techniques.

We will take a systems approach as we look at both Aquatic and Terrestrial Food Production, particularly with an eye on sustainability. Questions will focus on using examples.

This session will focus on diagrams and analysis for perfect competition, monopoly (and everything in between) to show how each model of competition impacts stakeholders.

This session will review macroeconomic concepts of the circular flow model of income, Keynesian and Monetarist models, and measure of GDP. Paper 1 strategies will also be covered.

This session will review strategies for IB Business Management Paper 1, 2, and 3 exams. It includes insights on question formats, answer structuring, and critical analysis for exam success.

This session will focus on exam techniques on Finance and Accounts. The session will cover topics of break-even analysis, final accounts and ratio analysis, and will examine questions on these topics.

This study session will review research methods and ethics content. It will also provide techniques on how to write solid research methods and ethics SAQs.

We'll review common overlapping or 'power studies' in Psychology. We will also review strategies for writing high-mark responses on Papers 1 and 2, focusing on critical thinking.

In this session, students will cover models of memory and thinking & decision-making models, overlapping studies, and sample paper 1 style questions.

Learn tips and tricks for Paper 3 questions. You will review relevant content, how to structure your responses to maximize marks and discuss traps to avoid and common mistakes to watch out for.
