Online tutors in Qatar

Qatar's government schools follow the national curriculum under the Ministry of Education and Higher Education, which also licenses and oversees private schools. Most expatriate children, and many Qatari families, choose private schools that teach British (IGCSE and A Level), American (high school diploma with AP), IB, Indian or Pakistani curricula.

Many students in Qatar aim for universities abroad or for the branch campuses of international universities in Doha's Education City, so subject grades and admissions tests matter. Students at British-curriculum schools typically take IGCSEs at 16 and A Levels at 18, while American-school students combine school grades with AP exams and the SAT.

We teach online only, matching each student with a tutor who knows their exact board and syllabus. Lessons run in Qatar time after school and at weekends, and continue unchanged if the family travels or relocates.

Sitting exams

Most students sit exams at their own school if it is a registered centre. Private candidates can register for Cambridge and Pearson Edexcel exams through the British Council in Qatar, which sets its own age and document requirements, so check these before you plan. In the May/June 2026 series, Cambridge awarded grades in Qatar through a portfolio of evidence instead of written exams, so always confirm current arrangements with your school or the British Council.

School calendar

Most private schools run from late August to June, with a winter break in December and a spring break around March. The Ministry publishes the calendar for government schools each year. During Ramadan, school hours are shortened and tutoring usually moves to the evening. Summer temperatures are very high, so many families use the break for online catch-up.
