Online French Tutoring for IB (International Baccalaureate) Students in Dubai & Doha

    Native French tutors specialised in IB French B (SL & HL) and IB French A Literature for expat students in the Gulf.

    Skoolup connects IB students in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha and the wider Gulf region with native French tutors based in France. We support IB French B (Standard & Higher Level), IB French A Literature, and IB Bilingual Diploma candidates. All sessions take place online with HD video and an interactive whiteboard — fully compatible with your school timetable and Gulf time zone.

    Full IB French curriculum coverage

    Our tutors have direct experience with the IB Diploma Programme. We follow the latest IB syllabus and prepare students for paper 1 (text comprehension), paper 2 (written production), individual oral assessment, and the literary analysis required at HL.

    • French B SL & HL (themes, written + oral assessments)
    • French A Literature (close reading, comparative essays)
    • French ab initio (beginners pathway)
    • Internal Assessment (IA) coaching and feedback

    Tutors who actually know the IB

    Every Skoolup tutor working on IB programmes has either taught IB students before or holds advanced French degrees (Master, Agrégation, normalien). We rigorously vet each tutor with a pedagogical interview and a subject-matter test.

    • Native French speakers based in France
    • Hands-on experience with IB rubrics and band descriptors
    • Mock orals and written exams under real conditions
    • Detailed progress reports for parents

    Flexible scheduling for Gulf families

    We schedule lessons around your school day — typically 4 PM to 10 PM local time (UAE/Qatar), plus Saturdays for intensive sessions. Holiday revision camps available before mock exams and the May session.

    Transparent international pricing

    Our IB tutoring packages start at €32 per hour. Payment by international credit card (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) in EUR. Your bank converts to AED, QAR or KWD automatically. No long-term commitment — the first consultation is free.

    Frequently asked questions

    Can you help my child cross from a French school to the IB?+

    Yes. We support many expat families who switch from the French national system to the IB during the lycée years. Our tutors help bridge methodology gaps, especially for French A Literature.

    Do you cover both Standard and Higher Level?+

    Yes. We offer dedicated support for SL and HL, with HL students typically benefiting from additional close-reading and essay-writing sessions.

    Can you help prepare the oral commentary?+

    Absolutely — we run timed mock orals, record them, and provide structured feedback against IB rubrics.

    What is the time difference like?+

    UAE is GMT+4 and Qatar is GMT+3. We typically schedule sessions between 4 PM and 10 PM local time, which is afternoon for our tutors in France.

    How do I pay from the UAE or Qatar?+

    Just use your local credit card — payment is processed in EUR via a secure international gateway. Your bank handles the currency conversion automatically.
