Tutors who join go through an ID check. Tell us the class, board and your sector: we share two or three matched tutors, each with their fee, and the first class is a free demo, at home or online.
Book a free demo classAcross NXTutors, most home-tuition sessions fall between ₹800 and ₹2,500 an hour; Classes 11–12, IB/IGCSE and JEE/NEET sit toward the upper end; specialists for IB HL or JEE Advanced can charge more. Tutors set their own fee, and you see each tutor's fee before the demo class.
Monthly example: 3 one-hour classes a week ≈ ₹9,600–₹32,500 a month (12–13 classes at ₹800–₹2,500 an hour). An example, not a quote: your tutor's own fee decides the real figure.

Say "IGCSE" to a tutor and you have told them half of what they need. The other half is the awarding body (Cambridge or Pearson Edexcel), the syllabus code, the tier and the exam series your child is entered for. Those details decide which papers your child sits, which grades are reachable and what practice actually helps. This page explains how the IGCSE years work, which subjects Gurugram families usually ask about, how tiers are decided, what to check in a demo class, and how home and online tuition compare across the city. It is written by Ajay Vatsyayan, who teaches IB, IGCSE and ISC maths on NXTutors.
Most schools teach IGCSE over Grades 9 and 10, with exams at the end of Grade 10. Students take a set of separate subjects, each with its own code, papers and grade, rather than one combined board result.
| Cambridge IGCSE | Pearson Edexcel International GCSE | |
|---|---|---|
| Grading | A* to G, or 9 to 1 where the school enters for that scale (maths 0580 offers both) | 9 to 1 |
| Maths tiers | Core or Extended (0580) | Foundation or Higher (4MA1) |
| Science tiers | Core or Extended in 0625, 0620 and 0610 | Untiered in 4PH1, 4CH1 and 4BI1 |
| Calculator in maths | One non-calculator and one calculator paper | Allowed in both papers |
| Practical skills in sciences | A practical test or an alternative-to-practical paper | Tested inside the written papers |
| Exam series | June and November; March is also available in India | Maths A lists January and June; check with the school for each subject |
Parents rarely choose the board: the school does, subject by subject, and some schools mix the two. Ask the school office for the exact codes on your child's entry. Our Cambridge vs Edexcel IGCSE comparison sets out the paper-by-paper differences.
In Cambridge maths, Core candidates sit Papers 1 and 3 and can reach grades C to G; Extended candidates sit Papers 2 and 4 and can reach A* to E. In the Cambridge sciences, Extended students study the Core content plus a Supplement and can be awarded A* to G, while Core students can reach C to G. In Edexcel maths, Foundation targets grades 5 to 1 and Higher targets 9 to 4.
The practical meaning is simple: a student on Core maths cannot get an A, however well they do. Schools usually decide the tier during Grade 10 from test results, so a tutor's job in Grade 9 and the first half of Grade 10 is often to make sure the student is clearly working at the higher tier's level before that decision is made. If your child is borderline, ask the school when the tier is fixed and what evidence they use.
| Situation | Tutor's focus |
|---|---|
| Borderline between Core and Extended | Supplement topics, harder algebra, full Extended past papers under time |
| Secure on Extended or Higher, aiming for A* or 9 | Multi-step problems, precise command-word answers, error logs from past papers |
| Entered for Core or Foundation | Secure every reachable mark: method marks, units, reading the question fully |
| Cambridge science, alternative-to-practical paper | Planning methods, tables with units, graphs, commenting on reliability |
Cambridge IGCSE Physics, Chemistry and Biology share one structure: a multiple-choice paper (30%), a theory paper (50%) and a practical test or alternative-to-practical paper (20%), with the tier deciding which multiple-choice and theory papers a student sits. Each needs its own kind of practice, from timed sets of 40 questions to tables, graphs and evaluation for the practical paper. Edexcel International GCSE sciences are untiered, with practical skills tested inside two written papers.
Schools also choose between three routes: the three separate sciences, Co-ordinated Sciences (0654, a double award graded A*A* to GG) or Combined Science (0653, a single award). The route decides how much content is covered and what a Grade 11 science course can build on. Our IGCSE science tutors in Gurgaon page sets out each paper in detail, IGCSE biology tutors in Gurgaon covers the biology syllabus topic by topic, and our guide to separate, co-ordinated or combined science explains what each route means for later choices.
Grade 9 is where habits are set. Content moves quickly and much of it looks familiar to students arriving from CBSE or ICSE, which lulls them; the marks are lost on unfamiliar question styles, calculator papers and "explain" questions. A tutor in Grade 9 should work alongside the school scheme, one topic ahead or one topic behind, and start past-paper questions by topic early.
Grade 10 splits in two. Until the mocks, the work is finishing content and building exam technique subject by subject. After the mocks, it is full papers under timed conditions, marked with the official mark scheme, with every lost mark logged by cause. The exam series matters here: a March entry in India shortens the second half of the year compared with a June entry, so ask the school which series your child is sitting and plan backwards from it.
A typical session with a tutor who knows the course has a clear shape. It opens with a quick look at last week's mistakes, pulled from the student's error log rather than from memory. The middle is new teaching or repair of one topic, with worked examples in the style of the actual papers, including the command words. The last part is exam practice: two or three past-paper questions on that topic, done under time, then marked against the official mark scheme together so the student sees exactly where each mark is awarded. Homework is short and specific, and the tutor tells the parent in a line or two what was covered and what comes next. If a session is mostly the tutor talking, or the same worksheet every week, ask for a change.
Maths and the three sciences have their own Gurgaon pages, each going into the papers in detail:
Our parent's guide to IB and IGCSE tutoring in Gurgaon covers command terms and criteria-based marking across both systems, and families comparing schools can see which board each listed school follows in our guide to Gurgaon schools by board.

If the fit is not right, we arrange a demo with the next tutor on your shortlist, and switching later is free. Tutors who join go through an ID check; the Verified badge appears only after our team has reviewed the ID.
What comes after Grade 10 should shape the IGCSE year. A student heading to the IB Diploma benefits from Extended maths and a graphic calculator habit early; one moving to CBSE or ISC for Class 11 needs fast hand calculation, radian trigonometry and textbook-style full working, which IGCSE does not demand in the same way. Our guide to switching between CBSE and IB or IGCSE has a six to eight week bridging plan in both directions, and our IB tutors in Gurgaon page explains what the Diploma asks for.
Many families with children in IGCSE and IB schools live along Golf Course Road and Golf Course Extension Road, in gated societies with visitor-app entry, and more families along Sohna Road now ask for IGCSE tutors too. Home classes are easiest where a tutor for your child's exact syllabus lives close by, for instance around DLF Phase 4, Sector 53, Sector 56 and Sector 67, or South City 2 and Malibu Towne on the Sohna Road side. In large societies the walk from gate to tower takes a while, so build that into the slot.
For Additional Maths, a science on the Cambridge practical route or a Grade 10 student close to the exam, the right specialist may live across the city. In Central Gurugram, around South City 1 or Sector 31, the central location puts more tutors within reach; further out, a hybrid plan (a home session at the weekend, online on weekdays) keeps the specialist practical. Online maths and science need the tutor to see written working live. See online tutoring for Gurgaon and the Sohna Road and South City guide for local timing tips.
Across NXTutors, most home-tuition sessions fall between ₹800 and ₹2,500 an hour; Classes 11–12, IB/IGCSE and JEE/NEET sit toward the upper end; specialists for IB HL or JEE Advanced can charge more. For IGCSE, the subject, tier, how close the exam is and the tutor's travel at your slot all move the figure. The pricing guide and our Gurgaon fees post explain the ranges.
Tell us the board, syllabus code and tier (for example "Cambridge 0625 Extended"), the grade, your sector or society and your free slots. We shortlist two or three tutors, you see each fee first, and the first class is a free demo. Browse tutor profiles or every area on our page of home tutors in Gurgaon.
Parents often tell us their child's school so the tutor can follow the same board and books. These Gurugram schools follow Cambridge IGCSE, as shown on each school's own site or its board's directory, with the sector each is in. NXTutors has no tie-up with any school; tutors are matched by board and syllabus, and the list is alphabetical, not a ranking.
More on how these boards differ: Gurugram schools and their boards.
Across NXTutors, most home-tuition sessions fall between ₹800 and ₹2,500 an hour; Classes 11–12, IB/IGCSE and JEE/NEET sit toward the upper end; specialists for IB HL or JEE Advanced can charge more. For IGCSE in Gurugram, the subject, tier, how close the exam is and travel at your slot move the fee; you see each fee before the free demo class.
To find an IGCSE home tutor in Gurgaon, tell us the board, syllabus code and tier, such as Cambridge 0625 Extended, the grade, your sector or society and free slots.

IGCSE home tutors in Gurugram are easiest to find along Golf Course Road, Golf Course Extension Road and Sohna Road, where many IGCSE families live. Central Gurugram puts more tutors within reach. Further out, or for Additional Maths and Cambridge practical sciences, a weekend home session plus weekday online classes keeps the specialist practical.
For Gurgaon IGCSE students, the tier sets the grade ceiling: in Cambridge maths 0580, Core reaches C to G and Extended A* to E. In Cambridge sciences, Extended adds Supplement content and allows A* to G, while Core allows C to G. Schools usually fix the tier in Grade 10, so work toward the higher tier early.
Neither Cambridge nor Edexcel IGCSE is simply harder for Gurgaon students; the tier matters more than the board. Cambridge maths has a non-calculator paper and grades A* to G, while Edexcel maths allows a calculator in both papers and grades 9 to 1. Cambridge sciences are tiered with a practical paper; Edexcel sciences are untiered.
Gurugram students can sit Cambridge IGCSE maths and sciences in the June and November series, plus a March series available in India. Edexcel International GCSE Mathematics A lists January and June. The school chooses the series, and a March entry shortens Grade 10, so plan revision backwards from it.
Your Gurgaon child's school decides the IGCSE science route: three separate sciences (0625, 0620, 0610), Co-ordinated Sciences 0654 or Combined Science 0653. Co-ordinated is a double award graded A*A* to GG; Combined is a single award with less content. A tutor should know which route applies before planning.
A Gurgaon student should take IGCSE Additional Maths only if the main maths grade is secure and they enjoy algebra and calculus. Cambridge 0606 and Edexcel Further Pure Mathematics 4PM1 go beyond the main syllabus and suit demanding maths in Grades 11 and 12. Whether it is offered is the school's decision.
Home IGCSE tuition works well in Gurgaon where a tutor for your child's exact syllabus lives close by; build the walk from society gate to tower into the slot. Online suits a specialist who lives across the city, provided the tutor sees written maths and science working live on camera or a tablet.
Yes, a Gurgaon student can usually move from IGCSE to CBSE or ISC at the start of Class 11. The maths gaps to close are fast hand calculation, radian trigonometry, topics such as complex numbers and the binomial theorem, and full textbook-style working. A six to eight week bridging plan before term covers most of it.
