YOUNG SCHOLARZ APPROACH
Our teaching approach starts with pre-IGCSE/MYP (grades 6 to 8), building a strong foundation for Grade 10 exams. Grades 9 and 10 students receive access to past papers and examiner reports for better preparation. Personalized 1:1 classes cater to each student's needs with proven techniques for optimal progress.
WEEKLY STRUCTURED CLASSES
For all subjects, as students progress to grades 9 and 10, we offer both group and 1:1 sessions. Our sessions are available in both group and 1:1 formats. Additionally, weekly English sessions cover all essential modules to ensure students are fully prepared for exams In the months leading up to the main exams, we conduct intensive exam-prep sessions where students take mock exams and practice various question types.
PERSONALISED FEEDBACK
Each student that comes to us receives nuanced feedback, closely aligned with markschemes, on all their classwork and homework A progress report is maintained with comprehensive notes enabling parents to keep abreast of their child’s academic progress.
BOUNCE
Conceptualised by Sunita Sharma, CEO of Young Scholarz
The ‘secret sauce’ for our students’ high grades in all the subjects‘BOUNCE’, a proprietary, 6-step approach to student success.
Message from our CEO - “Over the past 16+ years of building, coaching and mentoring at Young Scholarz, I’ve formulated an innovative teaching methodology that has positively impacted thousands of students. All the programs we deliver, online and in-person, inculcate our 6-step methods, helping students consistently produce excellent results.
Two core beliefs drive my passion for education: That the future can be shaped in whichever way we choose to imagine it, and 1. When coupled with the right encouragement, a sound educational foundation can allow everyone to achieve their goals.”

For our IGCSE students, we offer Paper Marking services, where students can have their mock papers/ attempted papers marked by one of our expert teachers. We can mark your papers and provide extremely detailed feedback that is invaluable and will help you get the grades you want
