Across Nairobi
Whether your child follows the CBC or a British or American curriculum, or learns at home, a dedicated mentor starts from where they are and builds toward university abroad if that is the goal.
Aligned with Kenyan and international schools
Mentors work from your child’s own coursework, or from Abugida’s grades 3–12 curriculum for homeschoolers, and build the skills behind the KCSE, IGCSEs and the IB, plus the SAT and AP exams for students applying to universities abroad.
- Kenyan schools following the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC)
- International schools offering IGCSE, IB and American curricula
- Homeschooling families

Results
How we measure it: mentors keep a regular check on each student’s homework and school grades and compare them with the grades the student had when classes began. That check is part of the service, so busy parents don’t have to chase report cards.
