I have been teaching English as the First Language for thirteen years. Being experienced trained and certified, I am very well aware of the nuances of IBDP English A assessments. I make the learner's experience enriching by using interesting texts, stimulating discussions, incorporating activities and drilling practices, preparing the student for internal as well as external assessments.
The learner is likely to experience the change in the first week itself.

If the learner enrolls for the entire course, the following four parts will be covered in detail with additional practice, drilling and guidance.
Part 1: Language in Cultural Context
Part 2: Language and mass communication
Part 3: Literature â?? texts and contexts
Part 4: Literature- Critical Study
The English A: Language and Literature course is designed for the students enrolling/enrolled for the two year International Baccalaureate Diploma Programmee.
Over the span of two years, the learner will be taught the topics with online sessions incorporating enough practice and thorough drilling of the skills; notes, specimen papers, specimen responses, analytic marking schemes, grade thresholds, examinersâ?? comments will be discussed and shared; in-depth orientation and understanding as well as honing of the skills for the External (Paper 1 and Paper 2) as well as the Internal Assessments(FOA, IOC and WT)
In addition to the regular sessions, three free sessions of one hour each can be availed by the learner during the course for doubt clearing, additional practice, last minute tips for the exam, etc.
