IB English Tutors

IB English tutoring supports students preparing for IB study in English language, literature, and related fields. Tutors help students cover various topics, including literary analysis, critical thinking, oral and written communication skills, and cultural awareness. IB stands for the International Baccalaureate. It is an internationally recognized qualification system for students aged 3-19, which aims to provide a rigorous and comprehensive education. The IB diploma program comprises many subjects, such as language and literature, language acquisition, sciences, and arts. The IB system has three divisions; the Primary Years Programme (PYP) is a curriculum framework designed by the International Baccalaureate (IB) for students aged 3 to 12 years old (preschool to grade 5).The PYP curriculum is inquiry-based, emphasizing conceptual learning, where children are encouraged to ask questions, reflect on their knowledge, and take responsibility for their learning. MYP stands for Middle Years Programme in the International Baccalaureate (IB) education system. It is designed for students aged 11-16 and is a 5-year program in schools. It aims to prepare students for the Diploma Programme (DP), the final stage of IB education for students aged 16-19. DP stands for Diploma Programme, an internationally recognized pre-university program developed by the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO). The DP is undertaken by students aged 16-19 (Grades 11-12) that aims to prepare them for higher education and work in a globalized economy. MTS teaches IB students from PYP, MYP, and DYP.

Experience

I have contributed to the IB curriculum, ensuring that the content remains relevant, interesting, and in line with the International Baccalaureate standards. Furthermore, I've hosted numerous educational workshops, improving the teaching methods for fellow tutors.

This experience makes sure that I provide students with a deep understanding of English, as per the IB curriculum.

Tutoring Approach

I believe in a student-teacher partnership. I value the unique strengths and perspectives each student brings. Together, we collaboratively set goals and map out a path to achieve them. Drawing upon various learning theories, I edit my guidance to resonate with the student's learning style.

Lila is a wonderful tutor who’s best at what she does. I'm very thankful to Lila for her dedicated efforts in improving my English proficiency. Her guidance and support have played a part in my improvement. She is very patient and has a superb teaching approach. Lila explains every single topic clearly, such as grammar, vocabulary, phrasal verbs, and more. I really enjoyed this experience. My English fluency and confidence are both better now. I wholeheartedly recommend Lila for her exceptional teaching skills to anyone who is weak in English.

Experience

In my three years of teaching, I've offered academic coaching to students. This has taught me the value of individualized approaches. A significant aspect of my role is maintaining open lines of communication with parents. This allows us to collaborate effectively, ensuring the student receives consistent guidance both at school and home. Together, we discuss the student's progress, identifying areas of improvement, and celebrating achievements. My students feel supported every step of the way.

Tutoring Approach

Understanding that every student comes with their own set of challenges, I focus on addressing motivational hurdles. It's not just about teaching English; it's about inspiring a love for the language. I believe in celebrating small wins, which play a crucial role in building a student’s confidence. Using customized techniques, I encourage students to believe in their potential, and guide them in overcoming any academic challenges. By setting achievable goals, I help them relate their progress to their larger goals.

Gemma is very cheerful, and her lessons are productive. She is a very experienced, helpful, and caring teacher. I am so lucky to have met Gemma. English is now my fav subject, all thanks to Gemma. Thanks a bunch!

Gary

Gemma breathes life into English and makes me appreciate the subject. No other tutor has been able to do so. I think it is mostly due to her exercises and feedback.

My exposure to diverse groups of students has given me the necessary skills to handle different personalities. I'm confident that students who choose to work with me will benefit from this teaching approach, ensuring a productive and rewarding learning.

Tutoring Approach

Clear communication is crucial in my tutoring approach. I adopt a student-centered approach. This means that the individual goals, needs, and strengths of each student are at the forefront of every lesson plan I create. By focusing on the student's perspective and adapting accordingly, I strive to make lessons both interesting and relevant. By combining clear communication with a student-centric method, I provide a learning experience that is both effective and enjoyable.

Mr. Holden is an educated fellow who knows IB curriculum and english perfectly. This makes me confident in learning from him. Not only this, Holden’s study materials are also incredibly helpful. I wish he had more free time so I could book more sessions.

Cynthia

I hired Holden for my son and he’s only impressed me with his vast knowledge. If your child is struggling with English as well, I recommend Holden.

Harry

Holden sometimes focuses too much on me rather than the subject.
