We mapped 236 tutors in 33 countries: which exams they cover, where they live, what else they teach, and what they charge compared with other tutors in their country.**\n\n*TutorTime Research · Data snapshot: 26 October 2026, 00:02 UTC · Next update: April 2027*\n\nInternational curricula and admissions tests have never been bigger. IB programmes are taught in more than 6,200 schools in over 160 countries ([IB, Aug 2026](https://www.ibo.org/about-the-ib/facts-and-figures/)). Cambridge IGCSE is offered by over 7,000 schools in 147 countries, and Cambridge International AS & A Levels by almost 5,000 schools in 138 countries ([Cambridge International](https://www.cambridgeinternational.org/about-us/facts-and-figures/)). Just over 2 million students in the US class of 2025 took the SAT ([College Board](https://newsroom.collegeboard.org/sat-participation-class-2025-surpasses-2-million-test-takers-first-time-2020)), and more than 4 million IELTS tests were taken in 2023 ([IELTS](https://ielts.org/news-and-insights/ielts-trusted-by-millions-in-2023)).\n\nMany of those students look for a tutor, and more and more of them look online and across borders. This report shows who is on the other side of that search. It covers every public tutor listing on [TutorTime](https://www.tutortime.study/), a free listing board where tutors set their own rate and keep all of it.\n\n**Read this first:** these figures describe **tutors listed on TutorTime**, not all tutors in the world or in any country. Exams and curricula are **self-reported** by tutors. Prices are **advertised asking rates**, not what families paid. See Methodology and limitations.\n\n## Key findings\n\n- **52% of TutorTime tutors (123 of 236) list at least one international exam or curriculum.** 39% list a curriculum (IGCSE, A Levels, IB or AP) and 30% a test (SAT, ACT, IELTS or TOEFL).\n- **IGCSE and A Levels are the most common, and they come as a pair.** 65 tutors list IGCSE and 63 list A Levels; 77% of IGCSE tutors also teach A Levels. 82% of IB tutors also list IGCSE or A Levels.\n- **US exams are mostly taught from outside the US.** Nigeria is home to the largest group of TutorTime's SAT tutors (24%), more than twice the US share (11%). 85% of AP tutors are based outside the United States, most often in India (25%).\n- **Exam tutors ask about a third more (+33%) than tutors in the same country who list no exam.** They charge more in 6 of the 8 largest markets, from roughly double in India, Pakistan and the UK to no gap at all in Nigeria and the Philippines.\n- **IB tutors carry the biggest premium (+25% vs their own country's median).** SAT (+18%) and IGCSE (+15%) follow; A Levels sits close to the median (+3%) and TOEFL tutors price below it (−13%).\n- **Exam tutors are more experienced.** They have taught for a median of 8 years, against 6 for other tutors, and only 15% are in their first 2 years (28% of other tutors).\n- **Almost all of it happens online.** 100% of IGCSE, A Levels, IB and AP tutors teach online, and 98% of SAT tutors do. Only 17–29% also offer in-person lessons (ACT: 40%).\n\n## Which exams TutorTime tutors cover\n\n![Bar chart of how many TutorTime tutors cover each exam or curriculum. IGCSE is the most common with 65 tutors (28% of listings), followed by A Levels with 63; 52% of tutors (123 of 236) list at least one exam.](/research/exam-prep-tutors-2026/exam-tutor-supply.en.png)\n\n| Exam / curriculum | Tutors | Share of all listings | Tutor home countries | Teach online | Also in person |\n|---|---|---|---|---|---|\n| IGCSE | 65 | 28% | 16 | 100% | 18% |\n| A Levels | 63 | 27% | 16 | 100% | 17% |\n| IB | 45 | 19% | 14 | 100% | 24% |\n| SAT | 45 | 19% | 15 | 98% | 29% |\n| AP | 40 | 17% | 14 | 100% | 22% |\n| IELTS | 30 | 13% | 15 | 100% | 23% |\n| TOEFL | 24 | 10% | 13 | 100% | 21% |\n| ACT | 15 | 6% | 8 | 100% | 40% |\n\nExam tutors rarely specialise in just one exam. On average they list **2.7** of the eight, **45%** list three or more, and a third (**33%**) cover both a school curriculum and an admissions or English test.\n\nThe pairings follow how students actually move through school systems:\n\n- **Cambridge pathway:** 77% of IGCSE tutors also list A Levels, and 79% of A Levels tutors also list IGCSE. 50 tutors list both.\n- **IB alongside Cambridge:** 82% of IB tutors also list IGCSE or A Levels. That suits international-school families who move between systems, or whose school teaches IGCSE before the IB Diploma.\n- **US admissions:** only 35% of AP tutors also list the SAT. AP tutors are mostly subject specialists (Maths, Physics, Chemistry), while SAT tutors lean towards Maths and English (see below). All 15 ACT tutors also list the SAT.\n- **English tests:** 16 tutors list both IELTS and TOEFL.\n\n**Taiwan example (secondary):** AP and IELTS are the most-listed exams among TutorTime's 25 Taiwan-based tutors (5 each), and 48% of Taiwan tutors list at least one exam. See [Mathematics tutors in Taiwan](https://www.tutortime.study/find/mathematics/taiwan).\n\n## Where exam tutors live\n\n![Stacked bar chart of where each exam's tutors live, naming countries with five or more tutors. Nigeria supplies 24% of SAT tutors against 11% in the United States, and India supplies 25% of AP tutors.](/research/exam-prep-tutors-2026/where-exam-tutors-are-based.en.png)\n\nExam tutoring on TutorTime is spread across many countries. Each curriculum's tutors come from 14 to 16 countries, and 20 of the 123 exam tutors live outside the eight largest markets.\n\n| Exam | Largest home countries (share of that exam's tutors, countries with 5+ tutors only) |\n|---|---|\n| IGCSE (65) | India 17%, United Kingdom 17%, Pakistan 15%, Nigeria 15% |\n| A Levels (63) | India 19%, Pakistan 17%, United Kingdom 17%, Nigeria 10% |\n| IB (45) | India 27%, Pakistan 13%, United Kingdom 11% |\n| AP (40) | India 25%, United States 15%, Taiwan 12% |\n| SAT (45) | Nigeria 24%, India 11%, Philippines 11%, United States 11% |\n| IELTS (30) | Taiwan 17%; no other country has 5+ |\n| TOEFL (24), ACT (15) | no single country has 5+ tutors (13 and 8 countries) |\n\nTwo patterns stand out:\n\n1. **Curriculum and country don't line up.** The UK is the home of A Levels, but only 17% of TutorTime's A Levels tutors live there. India supplies more IB tutors (27%) than any other country, and only 15% of AP tutors and 11% of SAT tutors are US-based.\n2. **Nigeria is an SAT hub.** 11 of TutorTime's 45 SAT tutors are in Nigeria. Browse [SAT tutors in Nigeria](https://www.tutortime.study/find/sat/nigeria) or [SAT tutors in the United States](https://www.tutortime.study/find/sat/united-states).\n\n### Share of each country's tutors who teach an exam\n\n| Tutor country | Listings | Any exam | Curriculum | Test | Most-listed exams (5+ tutors) |\n|---|---|---|---|---|---|\n| United Kingdom | 22 | **73%** | 64% | 14% | A Levels, IGCSE, IB |\n| Nigeria | 31 | 58% | 32% | 42% | SAT, IGCSE, A Levels |\n| India | 29 | 55% | 52% | 21% | A Levels, IB, IGCSE |\n| South Africa | 19 | 53% | 32% | 47% | – |\n| Philippines | 20 | 50% | 20% | 50% | SAT |\n| Pakistan | 25 | 48% | 44% | 16% | A Levels, IGCSE, IB |\n| Taiwan | 25 | 48% | 32% | 32% | AP, IELTS |\n| United States | 24 | 38% | 29% | 25% | AP, SAT |\n\nCountries with fewer than 14 listings aren't shown individually but are counted in every global figure.\n\n## What else exam tutors teach\n\n![Heatmap of the share of tutors for each exam who also teach each subject. 73% of SAT tutors list Mathematics and 58% English, while 90% of IELTS tutors and 92% of TOEFL tutors list English.](/research/exam-prep-tutors-2026/subjects-by-exam.en.png)\n\n**% of each exam's tutors who also teach each subject**\n\n| Exam (tutors) | Mathematics | Physics | Chemistry | Biology | English | Economics/Business | Computer Science/IT |\n|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|\n| IGCSE (n=65) | 46% | 34% | 29% | 28% | 38% | 15% | 15% |\n| A Levels (n=63) | 48% | 37% | 30% | 29% | 40% | 17% | 17% |\n| IB (n=45) | 49% | 33% | 33% | 27% | 42% | 13% | 13% |\n| AP (n=40) | 50% | 40% | 40% | 32% | 32% | 8% | 12% |\n| SAT (n=45) | 73% | 22% | 11% | 11% | 58% | 11% | 18% |\n| ACT (n=15) | 60% | 20% | 7% | 0% | 67% | 7% | 13% |\n| IELTS (n=30) | 20% | 3% | 10% | 13% | 90% | 17% | 3% |\n| TOEFL (n=24) | 4% | 0% | 4% | 8% | 92% | 17% | 0% |\n\nMathematics is the most common subject among curriculum tutors: about half of IGCSE (46%), A Levels (48%), IB (49%) and AP (50%) tutors list it. Physics and Chemistry are especially common among AP tutors (40% each).\n\nTest-prep tutors split by test. **SAT** tutors are mostly Maths (73%) and English (58%) teachers, matching the test's two sections. **IELTS** (90%) and **TOEFL** (92%) tutors almost all list English, and few teach science.\n\nEconomics, Business and Computing are thinner: only 8–17% of curriculum tutors list them. Families looking for IB Economics or A Level Computer Science have fewer options than for Maths. See [Economics tutors](https://www.tutortime.study/find/subject/economics) and [Computer Science tutors](https://www.tutortime.study/find/subject/computer-science).\n\n## What exam tutors charge\n\n![Bar chart of how much more each exam's tutors ask than the median in their own country. IB tutors carry the biggest premium at +25%, SAT +18% and IGCSE +15%, while TOEFL tutors sit 13% below.](/research/exam-prep-tutors-2026/exam-price-premium.en.png)\n\nPrices vary five-fold between countries (see our [Tutor Rates Report](https://www.tutortime.study/research/tutor-rates-2026)), so a raw global median would mostly measure where tutors live. We therefore compare each tutor with the median of **their own country** (8 markets with 14+ listings).\n\n- Tutors who list any of the eight exams ask **8% above** their country's median. Tutors who list none ask **19% below**. Put together, exam tutors ask about **33% more** than same-country peers.\n- **IB** (+25%), **SAT** (+18%) and **IGCSE** (+15%) carry the largest premiums. **A Levels** tutors sit close to their local median (+3%). **TOEFL** tutors ask less than their local median (−13%).\n\n| Tutor country | Median, lists an exam | Median, lists none | Gap |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| United Kingdom | US$50.6 (n=16) | US$25.3 (n=6) | about 2× |\n| Pakistan | US$19.5 (n=12) | US$8.0 (n=13) | about 2.4× |\n| India | US$20.0 (n=16) | US$10.0 (n=13) | 2× |\n| Taiwan | US$28.9 (n=12) | US$18.8 (n=13) | +54% |\n| South Africa | US$19.5 (n=10) | US$14.1 (n=9) | +38% |\n| United States | US$50.0 (n=8) | US$40.0 (n=15) | +25% |\n| Nigeria | US$12.7 (n=18) | US$12.7 (n=13) | none |\n| Philippines | US$9.0 (n=10) | US$9.5 (n=10) | none |\n\nMedians of advertised hourly rates, converted to US$ by TutorTime at listing time. In local currency, Taiwan's medians are NT$925 (lists an exam) vs NT$600 (lists none), and the UK's £40 vs £20. The UK and US comparisons rest on small groups (6 and 8 tutors), so treat them as indicative.\n\n**What this means for families:** an exam specialist usually costs more, but not everywhere. In Nigeria and the Philippines, SAT and IGCSE tutors ask the same as other local tutors, and they teach online, so a student anywhere can book them.\n\n## Experience\n\n| Group | Tutors | Median years teaching | 10+ years | 0–2 years |\n|---|---|---|---|---|\n| Lists IGCSE, A Levels, IB or AP | 93 | 8 | 38% | 16% |\n| Lists SAT, ACT, IELTS or TOEFL | 71 | 7 | 37% | 15% |\n| Lists any of the eight | 123 | **8** | **38%** | **15%** |\n| Lists none of the eight | 113 | 6 | 30% | 28% |\n\nYears of teaching are self-reported (\"teaching since\" year). SAT tutors have the longest median at 9 years, and 44% of them have taught for 10+ years.\n\n## Is the share changing?\n\nTutorTime grew from 162 public listings on 8 October to 236 on 26 October 2026. The share of tutors listing at least one exam has stayed close to half: **55%** (8 Oct), **51%** (19 Oct) and **52%** (26 Oct). New tutors are joining in roughly the same mix as existing ones.\n\n## Advice\n\n**For students and parents**\n\n1. **Ask which exam board and syllabus.** \"IGCSE\" can mean Cambridge or Pearson Edexcel, and A Levels differ by board. Ask the tutor which papers they've taught.\n2. **Look beyond your own country.** Every IGCSE, A Levels, IB and AP tutor on TutorTime teaches online. The tutor who fits your syllabus and time zone may live on another continent. Start with [online tutors](https://www.tutortime.study/online-tutors).\n3. **Budget for a premium, but compare.** Exam specialists ask about a third more than other tutors in their country on average. In some markets there's no premium at all.\n4. **For SAT, ACT and AP, check the time zone.** Most of these tutors are outside the US. Agree on lesson times in UTC (or both local times) before you book.\n\n**For tutors**\n\n1. **List the exact exams you teach.** Half of TutorTime tutors list at least one, and exam tutors ask more than other local tutors in 6 of 8 markets.\n2. **Fill the gaps.** Economics, Business and Computing are listed by only 8–17% of curriculum tutors, and ACT by only 15 tutors in total. [Create a free listing](https://www.tutortime.study/list).\n\n## FAQ\n\n**How many tutors on TutorTime teach IGCSE, A Levels or IB?**\nOn 26 October 2026, 65 TutorTime tutors listed IGCSE, 63 listed A Levels and 45 listed IB, from 14–16 countries each. 52% of all 236 tutors list at least one of eight international exams or curricula.\n\n**Do IB and IGCSE tutors cost more?**\nUsually.

There's no gap in Nigeria or the Philippines.\n\n**Where are most SAT tutors based?**\nOn TutorTime, Nigeria is home to the largest group of SAT tutors (24% of 45), followed by India, the Philippines and the United States (11% each). Almost all SAT tutors (98%) teach online.\n\n**Can I find an AP tutor outside the United States?**\nYes. 85% of TutorTime's 40 AP tutors live outside the US, most often in India (25%) and Taiwan (12%). All of them teach online.\n\n**Do IB tutors also teach IGCSE and A Levels?**\nMostly, yes. 82% of TutorTime's IB tutors also list IGCSE or A Levels, and 77% of IGCSE tutors also teach A Levels.\n\n**Are exam tutors more experienced?**\nOn TutorTime, yes. Exam tutors have taught for a median of 8 years, against 6 for other tutors, and only 15% are in their first two years of teaching (28% of other tutors).\n\n**Can I use this data?**\nYes, under CC BY 4.0. Please credit \"TutorTime Exam Tutors Report, Oct 2026\" with a link to this page.\n\n## Methodology and limitations\n\n- **Data.** Every public tutor listing on tutortime.study at 00:02 UTC on 26 October 2026 (236 listings, 33 countries, 235 priced). Data was read from the public homepage listing data. No private data, messages or contact details were used.\n- **Exams and curricula.** \"Curriculum\" = the IGCSE, A Levels, IB and AP options in TutorTime's curriculum field. \"Test\" = SAT, ACT, IELTS and TOEFL in the subject field. Tutors pick these themselves, and TutorTime doesn't verify them. \"IGCSE\" may include Cambridge and Pearson Edexcel International GCSE, and \"A Levels\" may include UK and international boards. The listing form doesn't record which.\n- **Countries.** Tutor country is self-reported. Countries are named only where at least 5 tutors list that exam. The eight markets with 14+ listings are shown individually; all countries count in global figures.\n- **Prices.** Advertised hourly asking rates in US$, using TutorTime's own conversion at listing time. Same-country comparisons divide each tutor's US$ rate by their country's median (8 markets, 194 priced listings). Group figures are geometric means of those ratios. The \"+33%\" figure is the ratio of the two groups' geometric means (1.08 ÷ 0.81). Small groups (under 10) are flagged as indicative.\n- **Experience.** Snapshot year (2026) minus the year the tutor says they started teaching.\n- **Privacy.** Aggregates only. Every published figure rests on at least 5 listings. No tutor is named, and no minimum or maximum prices are shown.\n- **Sample.** TutorTime is a young, growing platform. These figures describe its tutors, not the global tutoring market, and may shift as listings grow.\n- **Reproducibility.** Every figure is in the downloadable data appendix (CSV, CC BY 4.0) and can be rebuilt with our analysis script from the saved snapshot.\n\n## Sources\n\n- International Baccalaureate, [Facts and figures](https://www.ibo.org/about-the-ib/facts-and-figures/) (updated 19 Aug

老師多半是學科專長（數學、物理、化學），SAT 老師則以數學和英文為主。15 位 ACT 老師全部也教 SAT。\n- **英語考試：**16 位老師同時列出雅思和托福。\n\n**台灣的例子：**TutorTime 上 25 位台灣老師中，最常列出的考試是 AP 和雅思（各 5 位），48% 至少列出一種考試。可參考[台灣的數學家教](https://www.tutortime.study/zh-TW/find/mathematics/taiwan)。\n\n## 考試老師住在哪裡\n\n![各考試老師所在國家的堆疊長條圖，只標示有 5 位以上老師的國家。SAT 老師有 24% 在奈及利亞，美國只占 11%；AP 老師有 25% 在印度。](/research/exam-prep-tutors-2026/where-exam-tutors-are-based.zh-TW.png)\n\nTutorTime 上的考試家教分布在很多國家：每種課綱的老師來自 14 到 16 個國家，123 位考試老師中有 20 位住在 8 個主要國家以外。\n\n| 考試 | 主要所在國家（占該考試老師的比例，只列 5 位以上的國家） |\n|---|---|\n| IGCSE（65） | 印度 17%、英國 17%、巴基斯坦 15%、奈及利亞 15% |\n| A Level（63） | 印度 19%、巴基斯坦 17%、英國 17%、奈及利亞 10% |\n| IB（45） | 印度 27%、巴基斯坦 13%、英國 11% |\n| AP（40） | 印度 25%、美國 15%、台灣 12% |\n| SAT（45） |

住在英國；IB 老師最多來自印度（27%）；AP 老師只有 15%、SAT 老師只有 11% 在美國。\n2. **奈及利亞是 SAT 重鎮。**TutorTime 的 45 位 SAT 老師中有 11 位在奈及利亞。可瀏覽[奈及利亞的 SAT 家教](https://www.tutortime.study/zh-TW/find/sat/nigeria)或[美國的 SAT

73% 教數學、58% 教英文；雅思老師有 90%、托福老師有 92% 教英文。](/research/exam-prep-tutors-2026/subjects-by-exam.zh-TW.png)\n\n**各考試的老師同時教授各科目的比例**\n\n| 考試（老師數） | 數學 | 物理 | 化學 | 生物 | 英文 | 經濟／商業 | 資訊科學

40%）。\n\n考試類老師則依考試不同而分流。**SAT** 老師以數學（73%）和英文（58%）為主，正好對應 SAT 的兩個部分；**雅思**（90%）和**托福**（92%）老師幾乎都列英文，很少教理科。\n\n經濟、商業和資訊相對少：只有 8–17% 的課綱老師列出這些科目。要找 IB 經濟或 A Level 資訊的家庭，選擇會比數學少。可參考[經濟家教](https://www.tutortime.study/zh-TW/find/subject/economics)和[資訊科學家教](https://www.tutortime.study/zh-TW/find/subject/computer-science)。\n\n## 考試老師收費多少\n\n![各考試老師開價相對於所在國家中位數差距的長條圖。IB 老師溢價最高（+25%），其次是 SAT（+18%）和 IGCSE（+15%），托福老師則低 13%。](/research/exam-prep-tutors-2026/exam-price-premium.zh-TW.png)\n\n不同國家的價格可差到五倍（見〈[家教時薪報告](https://www.tutortime.study/zh-TW/research/tutor-rates-2026)〉），直接算全球中位數，主要反映的是老師住在哪裡。因此我們把每位老師和**他所在國家**的中位數比較（刊登 14 筆以上的 8 個國家）。\n\n- 列出八項考試任一項的老師，開價比所在國家中位數**高 8%**；完全沒列的老師**低 19%**。兩者相比，考試老師比同國老師高約 **33%**。\n- 溢價最高的是 **IB**（+25%）、**SAT**（+18%）和 **IGCSE**（+15%）。**A Level** 老師接近當地中位數（+3%），**托福**老師則低於中位數（−13%）。\n\n| 老師所在國家 | 中位數：有列考試 | 中位數：沒列考試 | 差距 |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| 英國 | US$50.6（n=16） | US$25.3（n=6） | 約 2 倍 |\n| 巴基斯坦 | US$19.5（n=12） | US$8.0（n=13） | 約 2.4 倍 |\n| 印度 | US$20.0（n=16） | US$10.0（n=13） | 2 倍 |\n| 台灣 | US$28.9（n=12） | US$18.8（n=13） | +54% |\n| 南非 | US$19.5（n=10） | US$14.1（n=9） | +38% |\n| 美國 | US$50.0（n=8） | US$40.0（n=15） | +25% |\n| 奈及利亞 | US$12.7（n=18） | US$12.7（n=13） | 無差距 |\n| 菲律賓 | US$9.0（n=10） | US$9.5（n=10） | 無差距 |\n\n以上為刊登時薪的中位數，依 TutorTime 刊登時的匯率換算成美元。以當地貨幣計算，台灣是 NT$925（有列考試）對 NT$600（沒列），英國是 £40 對 £20。英國和美國的比較樣本較小（6 位和 8 位），僅供參考。\n\n**對家長的意義：**考試專長的老師通常比較貴，但不是每個地方都如此。在奈及利亞和菲律賓，SAT 和 IGCSE 老師的開價和當地其他老師一樣，而且都能線上上課，世界各地的學生都約得到。\n\n## 教學年資\n\n| 組別 | 老師人數 | 年資中位數 | 10 年以上 | 0–2 年 |\n|---|---|---|---|---|\n| 列出 IGCSE、A Level、IB 或 AP | 93 | 8 | 38% | 16% |\n| 列出 SAT、ACT、雅思或托福 | 71 | 7 | 37% | 15% |\n| 列出八項中任一項 | 123 | **8** | **38%** | **15%** |\n| 八項都沒列 | 113 | 6 | 30% | 28% |\n\n年資由老師自填（開始教學的年份）。SAT 老師的年資中位數最長，為 9 年，44% 已教 10 年以上。\n\n## 比例有在變嗎？\n\nTutorTime 的公開刊登從 10 月 8 日的 162 筆，成長到 2026 年 10 月 26 日的 236 筆。至少列出一種考試的老師比例一直維持在一半左右：**55%**（10 月 8 日）、**51%**（10 月 19 日）、**52%**（10 月 26 日），代表新加入的老師組成和原本差不多。\n\n## 建議\n\n**給學生和家長**\n\n1. **問清楚是哪個考試局、哪份課綱。**「IGCSE」可能是劍橋或 Pearson Edexcel，A Level 也因考試局而異。請直接問老師教過哪些試卷。\n2. **不要只找本國老師。**TutorTime 上所有 IGCSE、A Level、IB 和 AP 老師都能線上上課，最適合你課綱和時區的老師可能在另一個大洲。可以先從[線上家教](https://www.tutortime.study/zh-TW/online-tutors)開始找。\n3. **預留溢價預算，但記得比較。**平均而言，考試專長老師比同國其他老師貴約三分之一，但有些國家完全沒有溢價。\n4. **SAT、ACT、AP 要先對好時區。**這些老師大多不在美國，預約前請用 UTC（或雙方的當地時間）確認上課時間。在台灣（UTC+8），UTC 12:00 就是晚上 8 點。\n\n**給老師**\n\n1. **把你實際教的考試列清楚。**TutorTime 有一半的老師至少列出一種，而且在 8 個主要國家中有 6 個，考試老師的開價比當地其他老師高。\n2. **補上缺口。**只有 8–17% 的課綱老師列出經濟、商業或資訊，ACT 老師全站也只有 15 位。[免費建立刊登](https://www.tutortime.study/zh-TW/list)。\n\n## 常見問題\n\n**TutorTime 上有多少老師教 IGCSE、A Level 或 IB？**\n2026 年 10 月 26 日，TutorTime 有 65 位老師列出 IGCSE、63 位列出 A Level、45 位列出 IB，各自來自 14 到 16 個國家。全部 236 位老師中，52% 至少列出八種國際考試或課綱中的一種。\n\n**IB 和 IGCSE 家教比較貴嗎？**\n通常是。和同國其他老師相比，IB 老師的開價比當地中位數高約 25%，IGCSE 老師高約 15%。整體來說，考試老師比同國沒列考試的老師貴約三分之一；但在奈及利亞和菲律賓沒有差距。\n\n**SAT 家教大多在哪裡？**\n在 TutorTime 上，SAT 老師以奈及利亞最多（45 位中的 24%），其次是印度、菲律賓和美國（各 11%）。98% 的 SAT 老師提供線上課程。\n\n**在美國以外找得到 AP 家教嗎？**\n找得到。TutorTime 的 40 位 AP 老師中有 85% 住在美國以外，最多在印度（25%）和台灣（12%），而且全部能線上上課。\n\n**在台灣找得到考試家教嗎？**\n找得到。TutorTime 上 25 位台灣老師中，48% 至少列出一種考試，最常見的是 AP 和雅思。台灣有列考試的老師開價中位數是每小時 NT$925，沒列的是 NT$600。\n\n**IB 老師也教 IGCSE 和 A Level 嗎？**\n大多會。TutorTime 的 IB 老師有 82% 也列出 IGCSE 或 A Level，IGCSE 老師也有 77% 教 A Level。\n\n**可以使用這份資料嗎？**\n可以，採 CC BY 4.0 授權。請註明「TutorTime 考試家教報告，2026 年 10 月」並附上本頁連結。\n\n## 研究方法與限制\n\n- **資料：**2026 年 10 月 26 日 UTC 00:02，tutortime.study 上所有公開的老師刊登（236 筆、33 國、235 筆有標價）。資料取自首頁公開的刊登資料，未使用任何私人資料、訊息或聯絡方式。\n- **考試與課綱：**「課綱」指 TutorTime 課綱欄位中的 IGCSE、A Level、IB 和 AP；「考試」指科目欄位中的 SAT、ACT、雅思和托福。這些由老師自行勾選，TutorTime 未驗證。「IGCSE」可能包含劍橋和 Pearson Edexcel 國際 GCSE，「A Level」可能包含英國本地和國際考試局，刊登表單沒有區分。\n- **國家：**老師所在國家為自填。只有在該考試有 5 位以上老師時才列出國名。刊登 14 筆以上的 8 個國家單獨呈現，所有國家都計入全球數字。\n- **價格：**以美元計的刊登時薪，使用 TutorTime 刊登時的匯率。同國比較是把每位老師的美元時薪除以所在國家的中位數（8 個國家、194 筆有標價的刊登），各組數字為這些比值的幾何平均。「+33%」是兩組幾何平均的比值（1.08 ÷ 0.81）。樣本少於 10 位的組別僅供參考。\n- **年資：**擷取年份（2026）減去老師自填的開始教學年份。\n- **隱私：**只發布彙總數字，每個數字至少有 5 筆刊登支撐；不列出任何老師姓名，也不列最低或最高價格。\n- **樣本：**TutorTime 是成長中的新平台，這些數字描述的是平台上的老師，不是全球家教市場，並可能隨刊登增加而變動。\n- **可重現：**所有數字都在可下載的資料附錄（CSV，CC BY 4.0）中，可用我們的分析程式從保存的資料快照重新產生。\n\n## 資料來源\n\n- International Baccalaureate，[Facts and
