For students entering Year 11 and IB2 (DP2)
Expert-led small-group classes for Year 11 Edexcel GCSE/IGCSE and IB2 (DP2) Business students.
Through interactive weekly teaching, students develop clearer subject understanding, stronger exam technique and the confidence to turn what they know into marks.
Is this for you?
These classes are built for students who are working hard but not seeing the grades to match. If any of these resonate, you're in the right place.
You're doing past papers but still not getting the marks — and you can't figure out what you're missing.
You understand the content in class but can't seem to properly apply it when it comes to exam questions.
You're spending hours revising but grades are stuck — and that effort isn't translating into progress.
You're aiming for the highest grades — whether for personal goals or to secure a place at your first-choice university.
You want to know exactly what examiners reward so you can approach every question with real clarity and confidence.
You want smarter study strategies — not more hours of reading that don't move the needle on your grade.
This isn't for you if you're looking for a one-off cram session, you're unwilling to attend consistently, or you believe high grades come without effort. These classes reward students who show up, engage, and apply what they learn.
What You Get
Every subscription includes the full suite of support below — not just access to a weekly session. Each element is designed to build the skills and habits that lead to lasting grade improvement.
Interactive, small-group lessons via Google Meet. We focus on understanding what examiners reward — and practise applying it, live, together.
Exam-focused topic notes, structured question packs, and mark-scheme guidance — so students can study effectively, not endlessly.
Every session is recorded and uploaded to Google Classroom. Miss a class? Catch up at any time — no one falls behind.
Students can submit questions between sessions via Google Classroom for guidance and clarification.
Results
Case Study · IB Business
Predicted a 4 → Achieved a 6 in her IB2 mock in four months
She already had knowledge of the course. What changed was her ability to structure longer responses, apply case-study evidence and understand exactly where marks were being lost.
Parent Review · IB HL
"My daughter not only benefited from her grades improving as she struggled with longer responses before working with Miss Pearl but I could see the impact the sessions had on her confidence, and calmed her anxiety leading up to exams."

Your Teacher
I'm Pearl — a qualified teacher and First Class Business graduate with over 10 years of classroom experience, including international teaching in the UAE and roles at schools whose results ranked in the top 1% of all UK schools during the years I worked there.
As a qualified Edexcel examiner, I know exactly what markers are looking for — and I bring that directly into every session. My approach is grounded in High Performance Learning principles: building not just subject knowledge, but the thinking skills and exam habits that turn effort into top grades. Sessions are interactive and engaging, focused on removing the guesswork so students understand precisely how to approach any question with confidence and clarity.
My students come to me with different starting points, but the goal is always the same: to make exam expectations clear, build confidence in applying knowledge, and help effort translate into stronger marks. Students have achieved improvements of two or more grades when consistent attendance is combined with focused exam strategy, practice and feedback.

Common Questions
Everything parents typically want to know before enrolling.
When do classes begin?
Groups begin in the second week of September 2026.
Are HL and SL students taught separately?
Yes. HL and SL students join separate groups so teaching, question practice and exam strategy can be tailored to the precise demands of their course.
Is this suitable for my child?
These groups are for students studying Business at school or through home education who want clearer understanding, stronger exam technique and higher marks.
Groups are available for IB2 (DP2) Business Management HL/SL students, and Edexcel GCSE/IGCSE Business students entering Year 11.
How small are the groups?
Groups are capped at a strict maximum of six students. This keeps classes focused, ensures every student can participate fully, and means Pearl knows each student personally — their strengths, gaps, and goals.
What if my child misses a session?
All sessions are recorded and uploaded to Google Classroom promptly after each class. Students can catch up on recordings and notes before the next session — no one falls behind. Consistent attendance is encouraged as sessions are progressive and build on each other.
How does payment work, and can we cancel?
Payment is collected monthly via a secure online portal on a fixed date. There are no long-term contracts. To cancel, simply give at least one week's written notice by email before your next payment date. Full details are provided on enrolment.
Do you offer one-to-one sessions?
Yes, subject to availability. One-to-one sessions start from £70 per hour and are paid in advance. Complete this form and we'll come back to you with availability.
What does the included IA support cover?
IB students receive two focused 30-minute IA support sessions during the programme: one in Term 1 and one in Term 2. These sessions can be used for guidance on areas such as the research question, structure, analysis and applying the assessment criteria.
Any additional individual IA support sessions requested outside of these included sessions will be charged separately.
Can you support students with SEND or additional learning needs?
Yes. Resources are designed to be clear, structured and accessible, including adaptations that can support students with dyslexia. I also have experience supporting students with ADHD.
As every student's needs are different, parents should include any relevant information in the application so I can confirm whether the group is the right setting and how best to support their child.
