SABIS High School English: what parents should know.
SABIS High School English develops reading, writing, and language skills within the SABIS proprietary curriculum. Strong performance here builds the foundation for academic progression and university entry.
SABIS High School English is a structured language and literacy programme delivered within the SABIS network of schools. It covers reading comprehension, essay writing, grammar, and vocabulary across the secondary school years.
Students are assessed through a combination of in-class tests, SABIS Academic Monitoring System quizzes, and end-of-term examinations. Grading follows the SABIS internal scale, with results feeding directly into academic progression decisions.
SABIS schools run structured exam series throughout the academic year, with major assessments typically at the end of each term. Preparation should begin well before each exam series to allow time for targeted revision.
A group class can't do this.
Lessons built around the gaps
The tutor identifies exactly which grammar rules, comprehension strategies, or essay skills are holding your child's grade back, then builds every session around closing those gaps.
Real SABIS test technique
Students practise with SABIS-style question formats and written tasks so the exam format feels familiar before the test date arrives.
Parents kept in the loop
After every session, parents receive a progress update covering what was covered, what improved, and what to focus on next.
The English programme that powers academic success within SABIS schools.
SABIS High School English is the core language subject within the SABIS proprietary curriculum, studied by secondary school students across SABIS-network schools in the GCC and internationally. It covers reading, writing, grammar, and vocabulary.
Assessment is built around the SABIS Academic Monitoring System, combining regular quizzes with formal end-of-term exams. Strong results support progression within the school and contribute to university application profiles.
Each one-to-one lesson follows the specific SABIS English units the student is studying in school, so tutor sessions reinforce exactly what is being taught in class rather than covering unrelated material.
What a one-to-one SABIS High School English lesson actually looks like.
Every session follows a clear four-phase structure: recap, teach, practise, and review. Your child always leaves with specific next steps, not just a sense that something was covered.

- 0-5 min
Recap and quick diagnostic
The tutor opens by reviewing last session's homework and asking a few targeted questions to pinpoint any remaining confusion before introducing new material.
Example: The tutor checks the student's understanding of topic sentences from last week's essay structure task and notes which paragraph types still need work.
- 5-25 min
Teach the target topic
The tutor explains the session's focus topic clearly, using examples drawn directly from the SABIS English units the student is covering in school.
Example: Teaching the conventions of argumentative writing as required in the SABIS High School English unit on persuasive text types.
- 25-50 min
Apply it to SABIS-style tasks
The student works through SABIS-style comprehension questions or written tasks while the tutor gives real-time feedback, correcting errors and reinforcing technique.
Example: Completing a timed reading comprehension passage in the SABIS question format, with the tutor annotating answers and explaining mark allocation.
- 50-60 min
Review, set homework, report
The tutor summarises what was mastered, sets a short homework task for consolidation, and logs session notes that are shared with the parent immediately after.
Example: The student is asked to write one argumentative paragraph independently before the next session, using the structure practised during the lesson.
After the lesson
Parents receive a written session summary covering topics covered, progress made, and the homework set. The session recording is saved and accessible at any time, and a monthly progress report tracks improvement across all sessions.

Why families across the GCC trust Tuitional for SABIS English.
My daughter was struggling with her SABIS English essays and losing confidence fast. After just six sessions with her Tuitional tutor, her writing improved noticeably and she went into her term exam feeling prepared. The tutor knew the SABIS format inside out.
Tuitional matched us with a tutor within a day. She understood exactly which SABIS English units my son needed to catch up on and structured every session around those gaps. His quiz scores improved within two weeks.
I used to dread the SABIS comprehension tests. My tutor showed me how to approach the questions systematically and my confidence completely changed. I actually enjoy English class now.
We tried two other tutoring services before Tuitional. The difference was immediate. The sessions are structured, the tutor sends notes after every lesson, and my daughter's SABIS English grade moved up a full grade band.
SABIS High School English tutoring: your questions answered.
The things parents and students ask us most, in plain language.
?Can your tutors follow the exact SABIS English units my child is studying?+
Yes. Before the first session, your tutor reviews the specific SABIS English units and topics your child is currently covering at school. Every lesson is built around those units, not a generic English syllabus.
?How quickly can we get started with a SABIS English tutor?+
Most families are matched with a tutor and have their first session booked within one to two working days of getting in touch. Book a trial lesson and we handle the matching for you.
?What if my child doesn't connect with their tutor?+
We offer a free re-match if the first tutor pairing doesn't feel right. There is no extra charge and no awkward conversation required. Just let us know and we find a better fit.
?Do sessions work around the SABIS school timetable and exam calendar?+
Scheduling is fully flexible and built around your family's timetable. Sessions can run on evenings and weekends, and we can increase frequency in the weeks leading up to SABIS end-of-term examinations.
?Are the SABIS English sessions recorded?+
Every session is recorded and saved to your child's account. Students can replay any lesson at any time, which is especially useful in the days before a SABIS quiz or examination.
?What does a SABIS High School English lesson actually cover?+
Sessions cover the full range of SABIS English skills: reading comprehension, essay and paragraph writing, grammar, vocabulary, and the specific question formats used in SABIS Academic Monitoring System tests and end-of-term exams.
