IB Maths mentorship programmes kicked off. The first one had just one student in it out of room for 8. And I see that genuinely as a decent success. This idea:

💡 didnt exist when I started out RS
💡 Took some months of tinkering and iterating
💡 has been communicated as a structured group program to move away from 1-1s
💡 has resulted in genuine interest and has resulted in someone deciding that this is an investment worth both their time and money

Did I realistically expect that group to fill by Day 1? Don’t be absurd 😂

Everything starts from somewhere. I’m proud to see my idea come into fruition, be in a position to decline 1-1 tuition and decline work offered to me by 3rd party tuition centres and stay in control of my venture rather than trade my time to grow the success of someone else’s.

That means for my AASL Year 1 group, you now know there are 7 spaces left 😂

Looking forward to seeing how the mentorship journey goes. And I have sign ups already for AAHL and AASL Y2 😎

Let’s report back in a year’s time how it’s gone!

If you are an IB Math AAHL student taking your exam this November, you are going to want to make this topic a priority ahead of Paper 1.

Complex Numbers!

It’s come up every single year in November since 2021- always at the end of the paper and averaging 19.8 marks. Thats 18% of the Paper 1 on just one topic!

So you’re an IB student preparing for November exams and taking Math AAHL, save this video and share to your classmates! This is going to be very helpful with your revision and prep!

Debunking a claim that I saw online that if you’re IB teachers were any good, then EVERY student in the class should be getting 7s.

Just a few problems with that argument. Not least of all that this isn’t how teaching and learning works.

When should you decide to get an IB Maths tutor? Well it shouldn’t be at the point where students are already completely lost!

It depends on the individual but the old adage of prevention being better than the cure. When gaps are flagged early, it’s better to work on closing gaps and improving areas of weakness before they get worse and before bad habits become embedded. So basically, not leaving it until the last few months before the final exam!

If you’re an IB Maths student studying AA or AI, HL or SL, which topics are causing you the most difficulty? Let me know in the comments!

IB Maths support should be more than simply turning up to another online lesson.

Resident Sigma IB Maths Mentorship is designed for DP1 and DP2 students who want structured, ongoing support throughout their IB Maths journey.

Alongside live small-group teaching, students receive assessed work, retrieval practice, IA guidance, feedback, parent reporting and the opportunity for individual support — all informed by years of IB teaching experience and my work examining real IB Maths AAHL scripts.

£225/month. No four-figure upfront commitment.

And if you’re not ready to commit to mentorship yet, you don’t have to.

Students can experience Resident Sigma first through a £40 topic Masterclass, or join a live Mentorship session for £45 before deciding whether the full programme is right for them.

Programmes are available for:

📐 Maths AA HL & SL
📊 Maths AI HL & SL
🌍 DP1 & DP2 students internationally

Comment MATH MENTOR below and I’ll send you the details.

IB Math students: tell me which topics you would like me to make reels on? Whether you are Maths AA or Maths AI, SL or HL- this would be a good chance for me to make a reel that fits with something you struggle with.

Tell me in the comments and be as specific as possible!

Momentous and proud day for the wee man starting his first day of school! He’s handling it much better than I think I did on my first day 😂 proud parent moment, and Lawrie did so well today 😊

To every IB Maths student starting DP1 or DP2 around the world — good luck! 🌍📚

Whether you’re taking AA or AI, HL or SL, there will be moments this year when everything clicks… and probably a few when absolutely nothing does. 😂

Don’t expect to have everything figured out immediately.

Ask questions. Get things wrong. Understand why you got them wrong. Keep practising. Keep building.

And remember — particularly if you’re just starting DP1 — you don’t need to be brilliant at IB Maths on day one. You’ve got two years to become brilliant at it.

Enjoy the journey. There’s some brilliant mathematics ahead of you.
