EDP-004 · IB Programme · Grade 10
Personalized weekly support to upgrade grades from 70-85% to 90-95%+ during the critical Grade 10 semester—when your transcript starts counting for university applications.
21 weeks · February to July 2026
Individual sessions + continuous diagnostic analysis aligned with IB MYP/DP curriculum
A structured 21-week intervention designed to close invisible gaps and elevate academic performance during Grade 10—the first year that officially counts on your university transcript.
The gap between “good” (70-85%) and “excellent” (90-95%+) isn’t about studying more hours— it’s about identifying and fixing invisible micro-gaps in comprehension, application, and test execution.
This program uses weekly diagnostic analysis of your actual schoolwork to pinpoint exactly what’s preventing you from reaching top grades—then systematically fixes those gaps.
Each week follows a proven diagnostic cycle that identifies gaps and fixes them before they compound
You receive a customized practice set (approximately 1-1.5 hours of work) aligned with your current IB curriculum (Math, Sciences, Economics, etc) and based on the materials you provided. These exercises target specific gaps identified in previous week’s analysis. Complete and submit digitally (via scan or tablet).
Before your live session, I analyze every answer—not just marking “right/wrong,” but classifying error types (conceptual gaps, interpretation issues, calculation mistakes, timing problems). This creates your personalized gap map for the week.
First 10 min: Review diagnostic findings—what worked, what needs attention
Next 30 min: Close critical gaps identified this week with targeted explanations and examples
Final 10 min: Align on next week’s focus areas based on upcoming school content
Apply techniques learned in session to actual school assignments and tests. WhatsApp support available for urgent questions or last-minute clarifications before exams.
Everything you need for systematic grade improvement over 21 weeks
Wednesdays 5pm, 50 minutes each. Online via Zoom. Multi-subject support aligned with IB MYP/DP curriculum.
Weekly analysis of your practice work with error classification, gap identification, and personalized recommendations.
Weekly exercises (1-1.5h of work) perfectly aligned with your ManageBac curriculum and targeting your specific gaps.

Why Grade 10 is your critical window for transcript excellence
Grade 9: Practice year. Grades don’t appear on official transcript.
Grade 10-11: OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT YEARS.
Universities see these grades.
Grade 12: Too late to “fix” a weak GPA. Decisions already being made.
Grade 10 is the last chance to build a strong GPA foundation before the pressure of Grade 11 (when universities start looking) and Grade 12 (when it’s too late to change much).
Think of it like weatherproofing your house before the storm hits— not during or after.
You’re entering IB Diploma Programme right now. The next 2 years (Grade 10-11) determine your official transcript.
Closing invisible gaps now means:
💡 Bottom line: Grade 10 is when “good students” (70-85%) separate into “excellent students” (90-95%+). The difference isn’t talent or hours studied—it’s identifying and fixing the invisible gaps that prevent top performance.
For students targeting Ivy League+ universities, SAT preparation should ideally begin in Grade 10, not Grade 11.
Why?
This program (Performance Upgrade) focuses on closing school gaps first. Once your Grade 10 foundation is solid (90-95%+ consistently), transitioning to dedicated SAT preparation becomes much more efficient.

(Diagnostic analysis included—no hidden fees)
Complete school documentation is essential for maximum precision. Please bring:
Required:
Important: The quality of diagnostic analysis depends directly on having complete materials. If materials are incomplete, exercise sets will be based on generic IB curriculum rather than your specific school’s approach, which reduces precision in gap identification.
That’s okay—we’ll work with what you have. However, understand that:
With complete school materials: Diagnostic precision is maximized. Exercise sets target
your school’s specific question styles, difficulty levels, and teacher expectations.
Without complete materials: We use standard IB MYP/DP curriculum materials from other schools.
This still works well, but may miss some nuances specific to your teachers’ assessment style.
Bottom line: More materials = more precise gap identification = faster improvement.
All IB MYP/DP subjects as needed: Mathematics, Sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Physics), Economics, Language & Literature, etc. Sessions adapt to your current school curriculum and upcoming assessments.
Online via Zoom. This allows flexible scheduling and ensures we can maintain the Wednesday 5pm time slot consistently throughout the semester.
Rescheduling policy (per EDP cancellation policy):
Rescheduling limit: Up to 25% of contracted sessions during program validity (5 out of 21 weeks = ~5 reschedules max). Beyond this limit, rescheduling depends on availability with no guarantee. Medical emergencies with documentation don’t count toward this limit.
Yes. According to EDP policy:
• Programmed breaks: Up to 4 cumulative weeks per semester with 48h notice
• School recesses: July and December/January breaks don’t consume validity
For this 21-week program (Feb-Jul), we already have 1 built-in break (Carnival week).
Additional pauses can be arranged if needed within policy limits.
No purchase required. If you already have an iPad or tablet with stylus, that works perfectly. If not, I’ll provide a Wacom tablet on loan for the duration of the program. This makes submitting practice work much easier than scanning.
Most students see measurable improvement within 4-6 weeks as we close critical gaps. However, the goal isn’t just “quick wins”—it’s building sustainable excellence throughout Grade 10 and beyond. Expect steady, progressive improvement rather than overnight transformation.
The primary outcome: Complete clarity.
After 21 weeks, you’ll have a crystal-clear diagnostic map of exactly where you stand:
Natural next step: Most students continue with structured support because they’ve experienced
the difference between “studying harder” and “studying with precision.”
Typical pathways:
We’ll discuss your specific situation in Week 18-19 (mid-June), giving you time to plan Grade 11 strategically rather than reactively.
Yes, installments available:
Number of installments and fees depend on your card issuer. Contact us for specific payment arrangements.

Plan accordingly before enrolling.
Grade 10 is your critical window. Let’s close those invisible gaps and build a transcript that opens doors.
