Why Janabiyah students
Janabiyah's IB Diploma demand comes from two distinct routes — neither of which is taught inside Janabiyah village. The closer route is St Christopher's School Bahrain (Saar campus, ~10 min), which runs IB DP alongside its Cambridge A-Level pathway and is the obvious choice for British executive expat families in Janabiyah who want HL Economics for UK and Canadian university applications. The British School of Bahrain (BSB, Hamala, ~10 min) also offers IB DP. A meaningful Janabiyah cohort commutes ~20 minutes to Ibn Khuldoon National School (IKNS, Isa Town) — Bahrain's first IB school (1983) and still the Kingdom's flagship DP cohort. Riffa Views International School (RVIS) is a longer drive but still drawn from. IB Economics — HL especially — turns on IA structure, paper technique and EE supervision, not raw content. Our Janabiyah IB Economics tutors are examiners who match the St Christopher's Saar HL pace, the BSB DP cadence and the IKNS internal IA/EE deadlines (typically September of Year 13), running Bahrain-time sessions around Ramadan, Eid and the May exam series.
Exam boards we cover
HL Economics is the standard route for St Christopher's Saar (the closest IB DP school to Janabiyah), BSB Hamala IB DP and Ibn Khuldoon National School (IKNS, Isa Town — Bahrain's first IB school) students targeting top medicine, engineering or quantitative university courses. Heavier content and a more demanding internal assessment.
SL Economics suits Janabiyah Diploma students keeping a balanced six-subject load. Same internal assessment framework, lighter syllabus depth.
Syllabus coverage
Our IB Economics tutors cover the full specification with extra depth on the topics where Janabiyah students most consistently lose marks.

What we fix
How we fix it:No international school sits inside Janabiyah village — every Economics student commutes ~10 minutes to St Christopher's (Saar) or BSB (Hamala), or ~25 minutes to Bahrain School (DODEA, Juffair). Online 1-to-1 lessons remove the second commute and protect evening study time.
How we fix it:Janabiyah's footprint is small enough that siblings frequently end up at different schools — one at St Christopher's Saar (Cambridge), another at BSB Hamala (Cambridge/IB), another at Bahrain School (AP). We staff one tutor per child matched to the exact Economics board so household scheduling stays simple.
How we fix it:Janabiyah families live around the Royal Golf Club, and weekend tournaments shape the family schedule. We flex Economics sessions into Bahrain-time weekday evenings and protect Friday-Saturday tournament weekends rather than fighting them.
How we fix it:Janabiyah's British and American executive expat households rotate on 2-4 year postings, so mid-year school transfers (UK → Bahrain or Bahrain → UK/US) are common. We diagnose Economics gaps from the prior curriculum in lesson one and rebuild missing foundations before mocks.
How we fix it:BQA-regulated schools serving Janabiyah families — St Christopher's, BSB, IKNS, Bahrain School — shorten timetables by roughly three hours during Ramadan, then pause for Eid. We rebuild Economics cadence around the shortened day and protect mock-prep blocks on either side.
Why Combo Tutors
Our Janabiyah Economics tutors are matched by exact board and school: St Christopher's Saar students get a Cambridge IGCSE / A-Level / IB DP specialist; BSB Hamala students get a Cambridge or IB DP specialist; Bahrain School (Juffair) students get an American-curriculum tutor; IKNS commuters get an IB DP examiner. No generic lessons.
Every Janabiyah student already commutes once a day to Saar, Hamala, Isa Town or Juffair. We run Economics lessons online 1-to-1 in Bahrain time (AST, GMT+3), so the second commute disappears and weekday evenings stay protected for school homework, sports and Royal Golf Club rhythm.
Lessons flex around Royal Golf Club weekend tournaments, British executive expat rotational postings, Bahrain Ramadan ~3-hour timetables, Eid and Bahrain National Day (16 December). Parents receive weekly Bahrain-time progress notes on Economics — not generic monthly reports.
Mrs Helena Whitfield
IB Economics · St Christopher's School Bahrain (Saar campus) · Janabiyah resident · British executive expat
Our daughter is in Year 13 at St Christopher's Saar — a ten-minute drive from our villa in Janabiyah. Her Economics predicted was sitting at a B and the UCL offer needed an A. Combo Tutors paired her with a Cambridge examiner who drilled mark-scheme phrasing line by line. She walked into the May series with an A* prediction.
Mr Steven Reilly
IB Economics · Bahrain School (DODEA, Juffair) · Janabiyah resident · American banker family
We moved to Janabiyah from Houston on a two-year posting and put our son into Bahrain School in Juffair for AP Economics. The 25-minute commute meant evenings were short. Combo Tutors ran AP Classroom FRQ drills in Bahrain time around the Royal Golf Club weekends. He pulled a 5 on the May AP exam.
Sophia B.
IB Economics HL · St Christopher's School Bahrain (Saar campus) · Year 13 · Janabiyah resident
I'm in Year 13 at St Christopher's Saar doing IB HL Economics and we live in Janabiyah near the Royal Golf Club. My IA draft was nowhere near the top band. Combo Tutors set me up with an IB examiner who restructured the IA week by week. Final IA scored 6, predicted lifted to 7.
Sarah M.
Parent of IB Student · London
My daughter was struggling with IB Mathematics HL and had almost given up hope of getting a 7. After just two months of weekly sessions with her Combo Tutors tutor, her confidence soared and she went from a predicted 4 to a final grade of 6. The personalised approach made all the difference—her tutor identified exactly where the gaps were and worked through them systematically.
James P.
Parent of A-Level Student · Manchester
My son started tutoring for A-Level Physics about three months before his exams. His tutor was incredibly patient and broke down complex topics like electromagnetic induction into simple, intuitive steps. He ended up getting an A* which we genuinely didn't think was possible. I'd recommend Combo Tutors to any parent who wants a tutor that actually cares about your child's progress.
Priya K.
Parent of GCSE Student · Birmingham
We needed help with GCSE Science for my son who found chemistry particularly challenging. His tutor made the sessions engaging and relatable—using real-world examples that finally made reactions and bonding click for him. He improved by two grades and, more importantly, actually enjoys science now.
IB Economics in Janabiyah
Janabiyah has no on-village international school, so families commute. The closest options for IB Economics are St Christopher's School Bahrain (Saar campus, ~10 min — Cambridge IGCSE / A-Level / IB DP) and the British School of Bahrain (BSB, Hamala, ~10 min — Cambridge / IB DP). American families commute ~25 minutes to Bahrain School (DODEA, Juffair) for AP Economics, and a Janabiyah cohort commutes ~20 minutes to Ibn Khuldoon National School (IKNS, Isa Town) for IB DP. Riffa Views International School (RVIS) is a longer drive but still drawn from.
Yes — St Christopher's School Bahrain (Saar campus) is our most common Janabiyah-area school. Our tutors know the Cambridge IGCSE paper codes, Cambridge International A-Level specifications and IB DP HL/SL pace that St Christopher's Saar runs for Economics, plus the school's internal mock-week cadence. We align IB Economics homework so school and tutoring stay in sync rather than competing for evening time.
Janabiyah's small footprint means siblings often end up at different commutable schools — one at St Christopher's Saar (Cambridge Economics), another at BSB Hamala (Cambridge or IB DP Economics), another at Bahrain School (AP Economics). We staff one tutor per child, each matched to the exact IB Economics board, and consolidate parent reporting so households see one weekly summary rather than three.
Yes. Royal Golf Club weekend tournaments shape the Janabiyah family week, so we slot IB Economics lessons into Bahrain-time weekday evenings and early-morning Friday windows, protecting Friday-Saturday tournament time rather than fighting it. The first trial lesson is free and there is no minimum-term contract — families pause around tournaments and Eid.
Yes — the British School of Bahrain (BSB, Hamala) runs both Cambridge IGCSE/A-Level and IB Diploma. Our Janabiyah IB Economics tutors are matched to the specific BSB pathway: examiner-trained Cambridge specialists for the A-Level cohort, and IB DP examiners for the HL/SL cohort, with IA structure and EE supervision aligned to BSB's internal deadlines.
IB Economics tutoring for Janabiyah families starts from BHD 20/hour, billed in Bahraini Dinar. Premium examiner sessions for top-band St Christopher's Saar, BSB Hamala and IKNS HL students sit at BHD 25-30/hour. The first trial lesson is free and there is no minimum-term contract — Janabiyah families pause during Royal Golf Club tournament weekends, Ramadan, Eid and Bahrain National Day.
