IB Diploma Programme Mathematics is its own world. Students choose between two courses — Analysis and Approaches (AA) or Applications and Interpretation (AI) — each offered at Standard Level (SL) or Higher Level (HL). Choosing the right one matters for university plans, and HL in particular is demanding. On top of the exams, every student writes a Mathematical Exploration (the Internal Assessment), an independent piece of coursework that’s often where marks are won or lost. A tutor who knows the IB system helps with all of it.
Whether you’re choosing a course, struggling with HL, or facing the IA

- Not sure about AA vs AI, or SL vs HL? A tutor helps you choose based on your strengths and your intended university course.

Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between AA and AI?
Analysis and Approaches (AA) emphasises algebra, calculus and pure mathematical reasoning; Applications and Interpretation (AI) emphasises real-world modelling and statistics. The right choice depends on your strengths and your intended university programme.
Should my child take SL or HL?
HL covers more material in greater depth and is expected for some university courses; SL is rigorous but more manageable. A tutor can help you weigh it against your goals.
Can a tutor help with the Exploration (IA)?
Yes — with topic choice, mathematical depth and the assessment criteria. The tutor guides; the student writes it.
Are lessons in person or online?
Both — in North Vancouver, online, or a mix.
