Specialist IB Geography & ESS Support
IB Geography and ESS ask students to think critically about complex global issues — from climate change and resource security to urbanisation and globalisation. The courses are rich and demanding, and many students benefit from structured, 1-to-1 support alongside their school teaching.
I am an experienced IB tutor with a background in Geography, Environmental Science and related fields. I help students build secure understanding of core concepts, improve their exam technique, and develop clear, well-structured written answers.

Core, options and exam papers
Support across the full IB Geography course, including core themes, optional themes, and exam preparation for Paper 1, Paper 2 and (where relevant) Paper 3.
Environmental Systems & Societies (ESS)
Interdisciplinary environmental thinking
Help with key ESS concepts, case studies and exam questions, with a focus on clear explanations and strong use of examples.
Support tailored to your IB programme
Every IB school structures Geography and ESS slightly differently. I work with students to match their specific syllabus, school resources and assessment deadlines, so that tuition fits smoothly alongside their existing workload.
Topics and Areas I Can Help With
Common areas of support in IB Geography and ESS include:
Core and optional themes
Skills, case studies and exams
- Population, resources and development
- Global climate, vulnerability and resilience
- Global resource consumption and security

Internal Assessment (IA) Guidance
The Internal Assessment is a major part of IB Geography and ESS. I can support students with understanding the IA requirements, refining their research question, planning fieldwork or data collection, and improving the clarity and structure of their written report.
I do not write IA projects for students, but I can give clear guidance, feedback and suggestions to help them produce their own best work in line with IB academic honesty expectations.
