A dedicated online learning platform, built for the IB pathway
Riyadh has become one of the fastest-growing hubs for International Baccalaureate education in Saudi Arabia, with a growing number of schools now offering the IB curriculum from the Primary Years Programme right through to the Diploma Programme. StudyHours works exclusively with IB-trained tutors who understand the PYP’s inquiry cycle, the MYP’s concept-based units, and the DP’s Higher Level and Standard Level demands.
Our online IB tutors don’t just help with homework — they build genuine subject mastery matched to each student’s exact IB programme, assessment criteria, and command terms, delivered entirely through live one-to-one online classes with no compromise on quality or attention.
Three stages, one continuum
The International Baccalaureate is an internationally recognised framework built around transdisciplinary and conceptual learning, spanning early primary school through to the final two years before university — structured around the Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme, and Diploma Programme, building toward globally recognised qualifications.
Primary Years Programme (PYP)
Inquiry-based learning across six transdisciplinary themes — building confident reading, writing, and number sense alongside genuine research and reflection skills.
Middle Years Programme (MYP)
Eight subject groups taught through key and related concepts, assessed against detailed criteria — building toward the Year 5 Personal Project.
Diploma Programme (DP)
Six subjects plus TOK, the Extended Essay, and CAS, scored out of 45 — the final, most demanding stage of the IB pathway.
Because Higher Level subjects carry more depth and independent-study demands, consistent, personalized online support from the start of the DP can make a measurable difference to a student’s final results and university applications.
Building the foundations inquiry learning demands
Ages 3 to 12 focus on building literacy, numeracy, and the inquiry and research skills the PYP is built around. Our tutors use interactive digital tools and structured, concept-led questioning to build confident independent thinkers early, during every virtual classroom session.
- ✓Live, one-to-one online sessions matched to the PYP framework
- ✓Early exposure to the IB’s inquiry cycle and reflection habits
- ✓Strong study habits ahead of MYP subject choices
Ages 3–12 · Inquiry
Reflection Check-in
Short, structured online sessions that build inquiry and reflection skills one theme at a time.
MYP · Personal Project
Building Toward the DP
Rubric literacy built now pays off through every DP subject and IA that follows.
Where the rubric matters
MYP is where concept-based learning deepens and assessment criteria matter. Our tutors provide dedicated one-to-one online classes matched to your school’s exact MYP criteria — not a generic approximation of the subject.
- ✓Strengthen weak areas through personalized online learning plans
- ✓Guidance through the Year 5 Personal Project, start to finish
- ✓Build the subject-choice clarity the DP will demand
Where university applications begin
The Diploma Programme is the most demanding stage of the IB pathway, with a score out of 45 that carries real weight for university applications. Every DP subject is studied at Higher Level or Standard Level: HL courses go deeper and require more independent study, while SL courses cover a narrower syllabus in less depth. Our IB HL tutors work on the depth Higher Level subjects demand, while our IB SL tutors build efficient, exam-focused understanding.
- ✓Personalized online learning plan aligned to HL or SL demands
- ✓Rubric-led IA, TOK, and Extended Essay coaching
- ✓A dedicated online subject tutor across every DP group

Mock Under Timed Conditions
Past papers marked against real IB rubrics, practiced under genuine exam timing.
Ready for May and November
IB exam preparation in Riyadh looks different from most other curricula, because so much of the final grade is locked in long before the exam session — Internal Assessments, the Extended Essay, TOK, and CAS reflections all carry weight. Our online IB exam tutors build a structured revision timeline around the specific session your school has entered your child for.
- ✓Past-paper practice marked against real IB rubrics and command terms
- ✓Internal Assessment and Extended Essay planning, drafting, and review
- ✓Timed mock exams that build genuine exam-day stamina under IB conditions
Every subject group, one tutor network
If your child’s school follows a slightly different subject combination or assessment variant, we match your booking with a tutor experienced in that exact specification, so lessons stay directly useful for classroom tests and coursework.
Language and Literature, and Literature courses.
Analysis & Approaches and Applications & Interpretation.
Biology, Chemistry, Physics — content and IA support.
Economics, Business Management, History, Geography, Psychology.
Multiple languages, from beginner to advanced levels.
Live. One-to-one. Never recorded.
Every StudyHours session is a live, one-to-one online class — never pre-recorded, never group-based unless requested. Our interactive virtual classroom uses a digital whiteboard, real-time screen sharing, and instant feedback tools, giving students the same depth of interaction as a focused one-to-one session, entirely online.
Classes are scheduled around Riyadh time (AST), with weekday evening and weekend slots available, so live online tutoring fits naturally into a demanding IB timetable and CAS commitments. Sessions can be recorded on request — particularly useful for DP students revisiting a specific IA feedback point.
