Thanks you so much for your unwavering guidance and support throughout these last few months of my IB Diploma journey. Despite being on the other side of the world, your dedication to teaching and belief in my abilities truly made a world of difference. I couldn’t have done it without you!
Because one size doesn’t fit all
Every student is unique, and adapting the teaching style makes all the difference.
Every student learns differently — and that’s a strength, not a challenge. Whether it’s visual, verbal, or hands-on learning, we adjust the approach to match your style, so the material really sticks.

Let Me Introduce Myself…
Hi, I’m Patricia Akao – your go-to IB Math tutor.
Math isn’t just what I teach – it’s what I love. Over the years, I’ve helped students not only raise their grades, but truly understand the “why” behind the numbers. Because when things start making sense, confidence follows.
My background might surprise you – I’ve studied everything from biological physics to business. With a B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. across science and environmental fields, I bring a unique perspective that helps me see patterns others miss and explain concepts in fresh, simple ways.
I’m a big believer in curiosity, creativity, and making learning feel doable. Whether you’re aiming high or just want math to feel a little less scary – I’ve got your back.

Just one Small Question
Do you help with both AA and AI? HL and SL?
Absolutely.
I work with students in AA HL, AA SL, AI HL and AI SL — and I know how different each one is. Whether you’re aiming for a 4 or a 7, the lessons are tailored to your specific level and needs. To hear more about IB Math AA tutoring. To hear more about IB Math AI tutoring.
Is online studying effective?
Yes — when it’s done right.
I use tools like Zoom, Goodnotes, and shared screens to make lessons interactive and clear.
Most of my students actually prefer it — no travel, full focus, and everything is recorded for review.
What if I am really struggling or lacking confidence?
That’s exactly why I’m here.
My experience as an IB math tutor allows me to identify gaps quickly and guide students who feel stuck, anxious, or “not good at math.”
We build skills and confidence — step by step.
Can I try one lesson?
Of course.
I offer a free trial so we can get to know each other and see if it’s the right fit.
No pressure, no obligation.
When is the best time to start?
There’s no single “perfect” time to start IB Math tutoring. It really depends on the student’s goals, confidence, and study habits.
Many students begin early in the IB program to build a strong foundation and avoid stress later on.
Others start in the second year, when the workload increases and exam preparation becomes more demanding.
Starting around six months before exams is also very effective, as it allows enough time to review content, strengthen weak areas, and practise past papers.
Beginning too close to the exams often makes it harder to achieve meaningful results because there’s limited time for proper learning and improvement.

Extra Information
- The classes are held using Zoom and Goodnotes app, the last one works as a real-time whiteboard. All the notes can be accessed at any time after class
