About Us
Excellence - it's in our DNA.
Recognising the lack of a customisable, centralised and affordable tutoring solution for students facing the International Baccalaureate, Velasca Tutors was born with the mission of delivering academically rigorous tuition that meets the requirements of a demanding curriculum like that of the IB diploma.
At the core of our tutoring approach lies the unwavering belief that learning is deeply personal. Exemplary tutoring, therefore, must live up to this expectation, placing the student at the forefront of the experience by assessing their needs, tailoring lesson plans to their individual specifications and then ensuring that premier teaching be available whenever, wherever the tutee needs it. This is the unique formula which underpins tutoring at Velasca Tutors.
Velasca was founded by IB students, for IB students. It is impossible to ignore that high school education does not meet the needs of all: whether you require minor assistance on singular topics or thorough reviews of entire subjects, Velasca Tutors is equipped to help you succeed. Excellent students who have faced your exact current circumstances will guide you to academic success.
Why Velasca?
Rigorous recruitment process
Tutors face multiple stages of scrutiny when they apply to our organisation — this ensures they live up to our highest quality standards. In fact, only students who attained a level 7 can tutor in a subject!
Quality Assurance
By booking, revising, recording, chatting and sharing files entirely on our platform, we can ensure that your learning experience is on track, giving you peace of mind.
Success, at a click’s distance
You will have unparalleled control over your revisions sessions: all the action happens on our LearnCube platform, a proven medium for premium teaching.
Unrivalled Digital Presence.
The distinguishing feature which differentiates Velasca Tutors from its competitors is our reliance on proven, internationally-acclaimed online learning software for the entire tutoring experience, from booking your first lesson to actually talking to your tutor via video. It is virtually impossible to overstate how significant this is, as it allows unprecedented access to great teaching — wherever you are.
Thanks to our partnership with LearnCube, you will be able to browse our pool of tutors, eventually selecting the one who you believe will be your best match, based on their IB score, reviews, character traits and style of teaching. Once you’re in agreement with them, you can then access our online learning environment, where you can buy lesson packs, schedule multiple lessons in your calendar and begin your learning journey. Inside the classroom, you then can draw on a whiteboard, share files, chat, share your screen or simply talk on video. This revolutionary technology is a taste of what allows us to bring the classroom directly to you.
