IB Physics Online and Private Tutoring in Dubai
Struggling with IB Physics?
For students in Dubai, IB physics is often considered to be the most difficult Diploma science option. IB physics necessitates a strong mathematical foundation and advanced problem solving skills. In the subject’s two-year programme, candidates are expected to familiarise themselves with core concepts such as atomic, nuclear, and particle physics. Those studying IB physics at higher level, will will also cover the more advanced topics of wave phenomena, electromagnetic induction, and quantum physics.
Without support from an IB physics tutor, understanding the course’s vast array of topics can be a challenge. IB physics demands confidence in both theoretical concepts and their experimental applications. BartyED’s IB physics tutors often watch learners in Dubai repeatedly make the same mistakes. For instance, in the exam room, there is often a failure to distinguish between radians and degrees in Topic 6 of the IB Physics curriculum. Alternatively, they confuse the rules of vertical and horizontal motion in a gravitational field which can lead to losing unnecessary marks. Here, private and online physics tuition can make a real difference for learners in Dubai.

A personalised approach ensures that a tutor’s style matches the mindset of the individual learner. Through a holistic teaching approach, a tutor will cement a learner’s foundational physics knowledge, while systematically targeting areas of weakness. To ensure Dubai candidates achieve top marks, a BartyED tutor will also assist learners with revision strategies and assessment technqiues. BartyED’s exam-focused IB physics tuition produced a track record of continuous high marks, regularly coaching Dubai’s determined candidates to 6s and 7s.
Elias: An IB Physics Success Story
Elias, a Dubai-based candidate, enlisted the help of a BartyED physics tutor in his second year of the Diploma programme. Mechanics is typically taught during the first month of IB physics classes, yet Elias had always struggled with the topic. Mechanics comprises a sizable portion of the IB exam paper (11%), giving him an immense lack of confidence in his physics ability. Lessons with a BartyED IB physics tutor allowed Elias to develop the necessary skills for mechanics. By having one-to-one lessons reinforcing the foundations of motion, momentum, and power, and practicing exam-style questions on system schemata, LOL diagrams, and graphical vector addition for forces, Elias was able to master the mechanics section of his final exam, and score a 7 in IB physics.

Frequently Asked Questions
What percent is a 7 in IB physics?
The grade boundaries for a 7 in IB physics vary from year to year. However, based on the average grade boundaries from 2016 onwards, higher level students will need to score an average of 68%, with standard level students needing to score an average of 65%.
How many people get 7 in IB physics?
On average, 22% of HL students manage to achieve a 7. For SL, around 10% of students score a 7.
Is IB physics harder than A-Level?
IB physics is regarded as more difficult than A-Level physics. IB candidates are given a broader syllabus, covering a wider range of topics and requiring a greater depth of understanding. Furthermore, the IB qualification is generally considered to be more difficult than A-Levels, with a demanding workload of six subjects, compared to three or four.
Do you need calculus for IB physics?
No, IB physics exams will not require calculus.
