Receive personally tailored IB Language B SL lessons from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with in-home and online tutoring that offers flexible scheduling and your choice of locations.How can an IB Language B SL tutor help you?
The International Baccalaureate (IB) program focuses on global perspectives, multiculturalism, and diverse methods of learning. The program also requires that you become proficient in a foreign language before attaining an IB degree. In standard-level IB foreign language classes, you learn to speak conversantly, write convincingly, and think critically in a new language. Simply understanding basic grammar and vocabulary is not enough to pass the exam. Instead, you are challenged to demonstrate real fluency in the target language, as well as engage with the media, history, and traditions of the cultures that speak the language being studied.
Learning a language in enough detail to succeed in an IB Language B course and the exam is certainly a challenge, but it can be made unnecessarily difficult by approaching your studies alone. Even when working with study guides or classroom-based reviews, it may be difficult for you to receive enough personalized feedback on your skills to know where to focus your attention when preparing for your exam papers and course evaluations.
