Flexible hours & set amount of hours
It was great to schedule a specific amount of hours because it was reassuring to go into the test after many tutoring hours. It was also nice to be able to schedule flexible hours as we are all pretty busy this year.
Economics tutor experience
She was very helpful and organized, also very understanding when I missed a lesson or was late. She made me understand things about economics that I understood as well as I did Chinese but now I’m Fluent.
We have been helped by Think Smart for…
We have been helped by Think Smart for the last three years of the IB Programme from MYP up until DP. All I can say is that their caliber of flexibility and diligence, has been second to none. Many thanks to Mo, Shrijita and Evan for guiding me all the way until the May exams! I have recommended this wonderful service to my friends and international school community
Matylda has been tutoring my son in…
Matylda has been tutoring my son in mathematics since January, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Matylda pairs deep mathematical expertise with rare teaching talent and genuine care for her students. She helped my son with improving his grades, guided him through his IA, and most importantly gave him a lot of confidence before the finals. Thank you.
The Spanish tutor calls were super…great
The Spanish tutor calls were super helpful and motivating. They really improved my understanding and confidence, especially in reading. Great support! definitely made a big difference in my prep :)
English Tutoring Session
What made it so great was the fact that Charlize was actively listening to what I was saying and was offering suggestions to make my analysis even better. This goes for ESS as well and the structure she gave me for History. It truly was such a pleasant experience to have her as one of my tutors.
really recommend
if you have the money for it, the tutors are very nice and useful. feels like you're talking to a smart classmate rather than a teacher. they know what they're doing and so far helped me a lot.
Think Smart offers well-curated, native-speaking tutors who bring both expertise and clarity to every session.
Working with Think Smart has been a great experience! We were really lucky to have Gonzalo—a young, Spanish-speaking tutor—guiding us. He must have been an excellent student himself, as he had all the content fresh in his mind and taught everything with great structure and clarity. My daughter and I truly appreciated his professionalism and dedication. Thank you, Gonzalo! Thanks to you, my daughter is now aiming higher in her Spanish A Literature IB finals.
I’ve been using Think smart for the past year and this is my personal experience
I’ve been using Think smart for the past year and a bit and couldn’t be more thankful for their Help! I mostly worked with Daria Thaddee and Matylda which are all just as professional and helpful as you could possibly wish for! Daria by far is the most helpful and considerate English and economics tutor I’ve ever had, always made the effort to answer as soon as she could and helped with everything she is basically a walking library with all the information you’ll ever need!! Thaddee has always been able to help me understand topics I thought aren’t even possible to comprehend and has always done so in the most efficient and professional ways. And matylda is just simply the most perfect maths chemistry and TOK tutor out there! Who knew someone could master so many subjects yet still teach them with such perfection!! Very much recommend them all!
Very good tutor for physics
I’ve been working with Matylda on my physics before the exams and she is very familiar and comfortable with the material and able to explain it clearly and well. Very patient tutor who shows passion for their work!
Andres was particularly helpful
Andres was extremely helpful, he supported our daughter through the entire Y13 IB journey and kept her both calm and confident . He established a good relationship with her and was able to boost her confidence and motivation when needed.
Great healp, fantastic teachers
Great help. Ann (History) has been fantastic, caring, efficient, understanding, pragmatic, flexible, sensible to the students needs. It has helped my daughter both with content and confidence. Think smart has been very helpful providing very good tutors that met our needs. I recommend the service.
I highly recommend Think Smart for targeted assistance in IB exams preparations
I highly recommend Think Smart tutoring. I have spread the news and recommended this platform to all my friends. The managers understood immediately our needs, recommended the best package for our needs and put us with highly qualified teachers for Math and Biology. They have been so far a tremendous help in structuring my daughter’s last weeks of studying and feeling more secured for her IB exams. The contact with managers both by email and WhatsApp was extremely fluid. Highly recommended.
Santiago, Excellent spanish tutor!
I worked with Santiago, the Spanish tutor. He helped me improve my Spanish, particularly before my IO in a very short time. Provided resources for me to practice with him and between lessons. He adapted to what I needed and made sure I constantly understood. Super kind and helpful! Created a really supportive learning environment where I was not afraid to ask questions. Thank you Santiago!

Tutor took time out of lessons to give extra help. Tutor was also helpful in general for EE and IA
Disappointing Experience with Think Smart
high hopes for Think Smart, but unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. The biggest issue with this company is the quality of its teaching staff. Rather than hiring experienced, qualified educators, they seem to rely on former IB students with little to no professional teaching background. While these individuals may have done well in the IB program themselves, that does not automatically make them effective teachers.
The lack of proper teaching experience was evident—my instructor struggled to explain complex concepts clearly, and their lesson plans felt unstructured and disorganized. There was also a noticeable lack of professionalism, with some tutors showing up late, being unprepared, or failing to provide constructive feedback.
For the high prices Think Smart charges, I expected much better. If you are looking for real educational support from trained professionals, I would recommend looking elsewhere.
