Online tutors in Kuwait

Kuwait's government schools serve Kuwaiti nationals and follow the national curriculum under the Ministry of Education. Most expatriate children attend private schools, also licensed and overseen by the Ministry, which teach British (IGCSE and A Level), American (high school diploma with AP), IB, Indian and Pakistani curricula, as well as Arabic bilingual programmes.

Many Kuwaiti families also choose British or American private schools, so international qualifications are common across both communities. Students heading to universities in Kuwait or abroad often need strong grades in maths, sciences and English, and some will need an equivalency for foreign qualifications.

We teach online only, with tutors matched to each student's exact board and syllabus. That makes lessons easy to fit around school and family commitments, and they continue if the family travels during Kuwait's long summer.

Sitting exams

Students at international schools sit exams at their own school where it is a registered centre. Private candidates can register for Cambridge and Pearson Edexcel exams through the British Council in Kuwait, which sets a minimum age and document requirements. In the May/June 2026 series, Cambridge awarded grades in Kuwait through a portfolio of evidence instead of written exams, so confirm current arrangements with your school or the British Council.

School calendar

Private schools in Kuwait generally run from September to June, and the Ministry of Education publishes the government-school calendar each year. National and Liberation Day holidays fall in late February. During Ramadan, school hours are shortened and tutoring usually moves to the evening. Summer temperatures often exceed 45°C, which makes online study a practical choice.
