What Affects Tutoring Costs?
Online vs Home Tutoring
Online tutoring is usually more affordable because it does not include travel, fuel or parking costs. It also gives families access to tutors across Dubai, regardless of location.
Home tutoring generally costs more because tutors may charge for travel time and transport.
For families who prefer flexible lessons without travel, online tutoring can be a convenient alternative to in-home tuition.
Curriculum and Level
Tutoring costs often increase for advanced or specialist programmes, including IGCSE and GCSE, A-Level, International A-Level, IB and AP. Senior students may need tutors with specific exam-board and syllabus experience.
You can learn more about available IGCSE tutoring support and IB tutoring in Dubai before choosing a programme.
Subject
Advanced subjects such as Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Economics and Computer Science may cost more, particularly at IGCSE, A-Level and IB levels.
Combo Tutors Academy provides support across a range of subjects, including online Maths tutoring, Physics, Chemistry and Biology, and English.
Tutor Experience
Rates depend on the tutor's qualifications, teaching experience, curriculum knowledge, exam-board expertise and subject specialisation.
A qualified teacher or experienced IB specialist will usually charge more than a university student providing general academic support. When comparing tutors, consider both the hourly rate and the tutor's experience with the student's exact curriculum and academic level.
Exam Preparation
Exam-focused tutoring may cost more than regular weekly support. Students preparing for final exams often need past-paper practice, mark-scheme analysis, timed questions, mock-exam feedback, exam strategy and targeted revision.
Students preparing for international examinations can explore exam preparation tutoring for structured support with revision, past papers and exam technique.
Monthly Tutoring Costs
Based on Combo Tutors Academy's starting rate of AED 55 per hour, here is what regular weekly tutoring can cost per month:
| Lessons per Week | Approximate Monthly Cost |
|---|---|
| 1 lesson | AED 220 |
| 2 lessons | AED 440 |
| 3 lessons | AED 660 |
- These estimates assume four weeks per month and one-hour lessons. The final cost depends on the tutor, subject and lesson schedule.
- For two subjects, one lesson per week each: from AED 440 per month.
- For two subjects, two lessons per week each: from AED 880 per month.
Is Online Tutoring Good Value?
Online tutoring can offer better value because it costs less than many home-tuition options, provides access to a wider range of tutors, eliminates travel costs, works well with digital worksheets and past papers, allows flexible scheduling, and supports students across Dubai.
The cheapest tutor is not always the best choice. Parents should consider the tutor's curriculum experience, teaching style and ability to help the student make measurable progress.
A suitable tutor should understand the student's syllabus, identify learning gaps and provide clear guidance between lessons. You can find a suitable online tutor based on your child's subject, level and goals.
What to Check Before Booking
Before choosing a tutor, confirm the following:
- They teach the student's exact curriculum
- They have experience with the required subject and level
- They understand the relevant exam board
- Materials and feedback are included
- Cancellation terms are clear
- A trial lesson is available
- There is no unnecessary long-term commitment
