About Edexcel International
Pearson Edexcel International Advanced Levels, known as IAL, are A Levels set by Pearson for international schools and private candidates. They are taught widely across the Middle East, Asia and Africa, and accepted by universities in the UK, US, Canada, Australia and beyond. Unlike the UK A Level, IAL is modular in every subject except Law, which is linear. Each subject is built from units: the first half forms the International AS (IAS), and the second half, the International A2 (IA2), completes the International A Level. Students can sit units across different series, bank the results, and resit an individual unit to improve it, with the better of the two most recent attempts counting towards the final grade. Because IAS makes up half of the full qualification, strong first-year results carry directly into the final grade. Exams run in January and May/June, with an October series in Accounting, Biology, Business, Chemistry, Economics, Maths and Physics, which gives far more flexibility over when to sit and resit than a UK board offers. The unit system also lets Maths students combine pure units with their choice of applied units.
Not sure which board you are on?
Every paper carries the board name and a syllabus code in the top corner. Cambridge codes are four digits: 9709 for AS & A Level Mathematics, 0620 for IGCSE Chemistry. Check a past paper, a mock, or ask the subject teacher.
–Look at the header of any past paper or mock
–Four-digit code = Cambridge; other boards use different formats
–Send us the code and we will match the tutor to it
How IAL assesses you
Two boards can teach the same content and still reward different things. This is how Cambridge papers are built, and what that means for how a student should prepare.
1. Paper Structure
IAL subjects are built from units, each with its own exam paper. In the sciences there are six units, three at IAS and three at IA2, and in Maths students combine Pure units with applied units in Mechanics, Statistics or Decision Maths. Units can be taken in whichever series suits the student, so two students on the same subject may reach the final grade by different routes.
- Units sat as they are taught, across different series
- Unit results banked and carried forward
- Applied unit choices in Maths and Further Maths
- Check which units your school enters you for
2. Practicals and coursework
IAL has no teacher-assessed practical endorsement. In the sciences, practical skills are examined on paper in dedicated units, one at IAS and one at IA2, which test planning, data analysis and evaluation based on the practicals students carry out in class. Most subjects are assessed entirely by written exams.
- Two written practical-skills units in each science
- Core practicals completed in class
- Planning, analysis and evaluation assessed on paper
- Little or no coursework in most subjects
3. The role of AS and A2
The International AS is half of the qualification. It can be certificated on its own after the first year, or its units carried forward and combined with the IA2 units for the full International A Level. This is the opposite of the UK Edexcel A Level, where AS counts for nothing, and it means first-year exams matter for the final grade.
- IAS is 50% of the International A Level
- IAS units carry forward to later series
- IA2 units complete the full A Level
- Some students sit IAS and IA2 units together
4. Markings and grades
Papers are marked externally against published mark schemes. Each unit's raw mark is converted to a uniform mark (UMS), which keeps units comparable when they are sat in different series, and the International A Level grade comes from the uniform mark total. Grade boundaries are set for each unit in each series.
- Published mark schemes for every unit
- Raw marks converted to UMS for each unit
- The better of the two most recent attempts counts when a unit is resat
- A* needs an overall A plus a very high score on the IA2 units
What we coach for on Cambridge papers
These are the habits that separate a B from an A on this board specifically. Tutors who have marked Cambridge scripts teach to them from the first lesson.
Each IAL unit tests a defined block of content, and question styles repeat from series to series. That makes past papers unusually predictive: a student who has worked through every recent paper for a unit, and learned what the mark scheme rewards, has seen most of what the exam can ask.
Mark schemes are precise about command words and wording. "State" wants one line, "explain" wants a reason, and "evaluate" wants a judgement weighed against evidence. The number of marks shows how many distinct points are needed, and writing beyond that wins nothing.
With three series a year, timing is part of the strategy. Deciding which units to sit when, and which unit is worth resitting for a few extra uniform marks, can move a final grade as much as extra revision. IA2 units also draw on IAS content, so banked units still need revisiting.
The practical-skills papers test planning, error analysis and evaluation in a consistent format, and formula booklets are provided in several subjects. Both are learnable, and knowing exactly what is given changes how revision time should be spent.
IAL subjects and syllabus codes
We have tutors available for all subjects.
Key dates for IAL
IAL runs exams in January and May/June, plus October for selected subjects, and entries close months before each one. Private candidates need to enter through an approved centre, or through the British Council in many countries.
May/June series: the main series for most schools. Entries close several months ahead, on a date set by the school's exam centre. Papers run from May into June, and results are released in mid-August.
October series: entries close shortly after June results, around late August. Exams run in October, with results in mid-January. This is the usual route for resitting a unit after a summer result.
January series: exams run in January, with results in March. Schools use it for first sittings of IAS units and for resits, so units can be banked before the summer.

Teaching Approach
My teaching philosophy is built upon an innovative, empirical framework that synthesises advanced scientific inquiry, diagnostic assessment architecture, and metacognitive learning strategies. Designed to transform passive memorisation into active analytical mastery, my approach elevates student performance across four core pillars:
Diagnostic Micro-Assessment Architecture — To guarantee complete syllabus coverage, every unit concludes with a mandatory diagnostic topic test. Built around rigorous targeted questioning, this system systematically identifies and resolves micro-gaps in knowledge before they impact official examination performance.
Examiner-Grade Assessment Mechanics — Drawing directly on my role as a Certified Senior Examiner, I train students to interpret command terms, structure high-scoring responses, and decode complex mark schemes. I provide specialised coaching on critical exam mechanics, including mastering extended 6- and 9-mark analytical questions and navigating board-specific scoring criteria.
Intradisciplinary Scientific & Applied Research Integration — I bridge theoretical syllabus content with real-world scientific methodologies derived from active research in high-altitude tropical ecology, geophysics, and environmental management. This intradisciplinary model deepens conceptual understanding, strengthens analytical data-response essays, and prepares students for top-tier academic rigour.
Adaptive Metacognitive Mentorship — Every learning pathway is customised to the student's unique cognitive profile, integrating high-yield active recall and structured problem-solving with dedicated academic mentorship. By cultivating both conceptual clarity and strategic resilience under exam conditions, I help students reach their highest academic potential.

Lina’s teaching philosophy is centred on helping students understand the “why behind the why” rather than relying on memorisation alone. Lessons typically begin by identifying gaps in prior knowledge, followed by clear explanations and modelling, guided practice, and independent problem-solving. Students are also given targeted practice to reinforce their learning between lessons.
Because Chemistry can be highly abstract, Lina uses visual explanations, analogies, worked examples, and real-world applications to make challenging concepts easier to understand. She creates a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and developing confidence in their Chemistry abilities.
Whether a student is preparing for Cambridge IGCSE, Cambridge O Level, AS or A Level Chemistry, following the Singapore Chemistry curriculum, or studying Pearson Edexcel Chemistry, Lina combines deep subject knowledge, over two decades of international-school teaching experience, current academic leadership, and exam-focused teaching to help students reach their full potential.

Louise B has taught/tutored A level and GCSE/IGCSE Biology for over 10 years and is experienced at preparing students to perform well during their exams. Several of her A level students have gone on to study Medicine and many of her GCSE students have achieved a 9, but her biggest driver is to build the confidence in the young people she works with. Helping her students realised that they are more capable than they previously believed is what, she believes, enables them to make the fastest progress towards their goal.
At university Louise initially began studying Biochemistry but quickly realised that Microbiology was a bigger passion. She therefore has an excellent understanding of metabolic processes that students tend to find tricky. Her PhD in life sciences demonstrates that she understands the research process and is able to pass these skills onto her students.
Finally, Louise's teaching qualification was attained at the University of Oxford meaning that she is equipped with teaching skills that will allow her to get the best from her students. Her approach is to work with students with empathy and an open mind so that students grow in confidence and feel that they can achieve more than they previously thought possible.

Mahesh B is an experienced A Level Physics educator and International Examiner with over a decade of full-time teaching experience. He has taught students from different countries and academic backgrounds, helping them develop a strong understanding of Physics while preparing them systematically for their examinations.
Mahesh teaches Cambridge International (CAIE) A Level Physics and Pearson Edexcel International A Level Physics. His experience with both examination boards allows him to understand the differences in syllabus structure, question styles, assessment requirements and examination expectations. He adapts his lessons according to the student's specific specification rather than using the same approach for every exam board.
Alongside teaching, Mahesh works as a Cambridge International A Level Physics Examiner and Pearson Edexcel A Level Physics Examiner. His examining experience gives him first-hand exposure to mark schemes, assessment criteria and student responses. Having assessed examination answers, he has developed a clear understanding of the areas where students commonly lose marks and the level of explanation, working and reasoning expected in different types of questions.
He brings this examiner experience directly into his tutoring. Students learn not only how to arrive at the correct answer but also how to approach an examination question, show their working clearly, explain their reasoning, use appropriate units and present answers in a way that addresses the requirements of the question.
His teaching approach is centred on understanding Physics rather than memorising formulas. He breaks down difficult concepts into simpler ideas and then helps students apply those concepts through numerical problems, diagrams, real-world examples and exam-style questions. Particular attention is given to topics that students find challenging and to developing the mathematical and analytical skills required for A Level Physics.
A significant part of his teaching involves past-paper practice and examination preparation. Rather than simply working through large numbers of questions, Mahesh encourages students to understand why a particular approach works, identify patterns in questions, recognise common errors and learn from their mistakes. This helps students become more confident when they encounter unfamiliar problems in examinations.
Mahesh also provides individualised one-to-one online tutoring to students worldwide. He has worked with students from diverse educational backgrounds and adapts the pace, depth and teaching style according to each student's needs. Whether a student is struggling with fundamental concepts, looking to improve their examination technique or preparing for high grades, lessons are structured around their individual areas of difficulty.
In addition to teaching, Mahesh has worked as a Physics content developer with Revision Village and Pamoja, contributing to the development of educational and learning resources. This experience has strengthened his ability to explain Physics clearly and create structured, student-friendly learning material.
His online lessons are interactive and highly visual, making use of digital writing, simulations, animations, illustrations and real-world applications wherever they help students understand a concept more effectively. He aims to create an environment where students can ask questions freely, work through problems step by step and develop confidence in their own ability to solve Physics problems.
With his combination of 10+ years of teaching experience, CAIE and Pearson Edexcel examining experience, international tutoring experience and educational content-development work, Mahesh brings both subject expertise and an examiner's perspective to A Level Physics tutoring.
His ultimate aim is to help students understand Physics deeply, approach challenging problems with confidence and develop the examination skills needed to demonstrate their knowledge effectively.

Over the last twenty years I have gained significant classroom and management experience at several State, Grammar and Independent Schools. I have been out of the classroom environment recently but continue to keep up to date with Education Policy and support students away from the school environment via home tutoring.
I am an experienced teacher with a passion towards my subject and have a great desire that all pupils across the ability range are inspired by Science; there is no greater job satisfaction for me than when that inspiration leads to students excelling in examinations or pursuing a career in medicine. As Head of Biology at Kingston Grammar School I managed a team of four experienced teachers- as well as being actively involved in the overall management of the Science department.
I was successful in improving both A-Level and GCSE results year on year. I was responsible for co-ordinating Community Service placements for students in the wider community. I also worked closely with Brunel University with their PGCE programme and was part of a team inspected by OFSTED and I was awarded as ‘outstanding’ in my mentoring work with PGCE students at Kingston Grammar.
Whilst my teaching specialism is Biology I have also taught Chemistry and Physics at key stage three, four and A Level. I have a broad knowledge of the science curriculum and how it fits in to schools academic policies and wider educational policies. I also have a good understanding of International Baccalaureate programs and Vocational courses. I have written schemes of work and working policies for a department as well as full risk assessments for practical work. I also have experience of intake of student new to a school be it a state school or an 11+ or Common Entrance at 13+.

I’m Taiwo, a tutor with ten years of teaching and tutoring experience and a B.Sc. in Electronic and Electrical Engineering from Obafemi Awolowo University. I teach A-level, GCSE and IGCSE students, bringing together subject knowledge, classroom experience and a patient, practical approach to learning.
My subjects include Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, English Language and Computer Science. My current GCSE teaching includes AQA Mathematics at Foundation and Higher levels and AQA English Language. My engineering background strengthens my teaching of Mathematics and Physics, while my professional software development experience allows me to connect computing concepts with practical applications.
I plan lessons around what each student needs. Some need to rebuild foundations; others understand the content but struggle to apply it in unfamiliar exam questions. I identify those gaps, explain ideas clearly and guide students towards solving problems independently. In Mathematics, that means understanding why a method works and recognising when to use it. In Science, it means connecting concepts, calculations and experimental evidence. In English, it means moving beyond identifying techniques to developing thoughtful analysis supported by precise examples.
Students can expect structured lessons, personalised homework and detailed feedback. I use past papers and mark schemes to help them understand what questions demand, improve the clarity of their answers and develop effective revision habits. I track difficulties across lessons so that we revisit what needs attention rather than simply move through topics.
I currently work with international learners, including students in the UK and Hong Kong, and understand the importance of adapting explanations to different educational and language backgrounds. I want students to feel comfortable asking questions, willing to attempt challenging work and able to recognise their own progress. My aim is to build secure understanding, greater independence and confident exam preparation.

IAL tutoring FAQs
We have answers to your most frequently asked questions. Anything not answered here, please reach out to our team.
Edexcel International (IAL) A-Level and AS tutoring with an academic tutor starts from $60 USD (£45) per hour. Packages save 5–15%. There are no lock-in contracts. Professional tutors (qualified teachers and examiners) cost from $85 USD (£64) per hour. See our full pricing.
Late cancellations and no-shows are charged at half the lesson fee. That applies if you cancel less than one hour before the start time, or don't turn up. You can still change a session time whenever you need to, as long as you give your tutor notice.
Our Edexcel International (IAL) tutors cover Maths, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Economics, Psychology, English Literature, History, Business and Geography, plus Further Maths, Pure Maths, Accounting, English Language, French, Spanish, Law and more. Tell us which units you have already sat when you apply.
Pearson's past papers search gives free access to IAL question papers and mark schemes, although papers from the last 12 months are locked for teachers only. Each subject page holds the specification, for example IAL Biology.
Grade boundaries for every series are on the grade boundaries page. Private candidates entered for a series can request access to locked papers.
Yes. Pearson treats anyone who hasn't studied with the centre that enters them as a private candidate, including home-educated students and those resitting. Outside the UK, you use Pearson's international centre search to find an approved centre, and you pay that centre's fees. Entries can also be made with the British Council in some countries. Entered private candidates can request locked past papers. Read Pearson's private candidates page and our resits and retakes guide.
The UK Pearson Edexcel A Level is linear, while IAL is modular: unit results are banked and can be resat, and the International AS counts for 50% of the final grade. Compared with Cambridge International (CIE), which holds AS & A Level series in June and November (plus March in India and Romania), IAL adds a January series in most subjects and an October series in seven. OxfordAQA is also unit-based, but its AS counts for 40%.
IAL has no teacher-assessed practical endorsement. In Biology, Chemistry and Physics, practical skills are tested in two written exam units, Unit 3 at IAS and Unit 6 at IA2, each worth 10% of the International A Level and based on practical work done in class. Subjects such as English Literature, Geography, French and Spanish are 100% externally assessed. See the IAL Biology specification for detail.
Each unit is marked externally and the raw mark is converted to a Uniform Mark Scale (UMS), so units sat in different series count equally. Unit UMS marks are added together for the overall grade, A* to E at International A Level. An A* needs an overall A plus at least 90% of the IA2 uniform marks.
In June 2026, grade A in IAL Biology required 480 out of 600 uniform marks. Raw-mark boundaries for each unit change every series and are published on Pearson's grade boundaries page.
Yes. The International AS (IAS) is the first half of the International A Level and counts for 50% of it. It can be awarded as a standalone qualification, or its unit results banked and later cashed in with the IA2 units for the full International A Level. Units can be resat, and Pearson uses your best result from your two most recent attempts. Law is the exception, as it is not modular. Our AS Level tutors help students plan which units to sit when.
IAL exams run in January, May/June and October, but not every subject sits in every series. Accounting, Biology, Business, Chemistry, Economics, Maths and Physics run in all three; English, French, Geography, History, Psychology and Spanish run in January and May/June; Law is May/June only.
For 2026/27, Pearson's entry deadlines are 28 August 2026 (October), 16 October 2026 (January) and 21 March 2027 (May/June), with summer results on 12 August 2027. See the IAL timetables and key dates.
Edexcel International Advanced Levels (IAL) are International AS and A Levels set by Pearson for international learners. They are available in 21 subjects and are modular in every subject except Law. Pearson states they are comparable to UK GCE A Levels, as confirmed by UK NARIC.
All Russell Group universities in the UK, including Oxford and Cambridge, and all Group of Eight universities in Australia accept IALs. See Pearson's International A Level site.
Yes. Every IAL tutor we match is chosen for your Pearson Edexcel International specification, including the units you still have to sit. Our tutors are academics who achieved A*/A grades, or qualified teachers and examiners, and our Learning Advisor matches you on subject, exam board and target grade.
You can meet our tutors or apply here to be matched with an IAL tutor.
