Introduction: International Standards, Local Expertise

At Ustaad, we provide expert tutoring for students enrolled in International Baccalaureate (IB), Advanced Placement (AP), and Advanced Subsidiary (AS) programs. These qualifications are recognized worldwide and are increasingly popular among schools in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and across the Emirates. Our mission is to help students master complex subjects, excel in exams, and secure admission to leading universities.

International Baccalaureate (IB) Tutoring

The IB Diploma Programme (IBDP) is one of the most challenging and respected qualifications for students aged 16 to 19. Widely offered in international schools across the UAE, it emphasizes critical thinking, research, and global awareness.

Students study 6 subject groups along with the Extended Essay, TOK (Theory of Knowledge), and CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service).
Success in IB is crucial for admissions to top universities in UAE, UK, US, Canada, and beyond.

At Ustaad, our IB tutors:

Guide students in EE, TOK, and IA (Internal Assessments).
Offer exam strategies and practice tailored to IB’s unique grading system.

Advanced Placement (AP) Tutoring

The AP Program, designed by the College Board (USA), is offered by many American curriculum schools in the UAE. AP courses allow students (Grades 9 to 12) to study university-level subjects while still in high school.

Subjects range from AP Calculus, Physics, and Biology to AP Economics, Psychology, and Computer Science.
Strong AP scores give students an edge in US university admissions and may even count as college credits.

At Ustaad, our AP tutors:

Focus on both conceptual clarity and exam performance.
Help students build the confidence needed to earn top scores (4s & 5s).

Advanced Subsidiary (AS) Level Tutoring

The AS Level, part of the British curriculum, is usually taken in the first year of post IGCSE study (Grades 11 to 12). Many UAE schools offer AS Levels as a stepping stone to full A Levels.

Students typically study 3 to 4 subjects at AS before progressing to A2 (final year).
It provides strong preparation for university studies in the UAE and abroad.
