Best IB English A tutors in the UK & online

I'm Grace, an IB graduate with 45 points with over 4 years of teaching experience, studying French and Spanish at the University of Oxford. I achieved 7s in all my subjects (English Literature, Spanish B and French B at higher). I've taught students aged 10-18, and I have a strong knowledge of the IB and MYP programmes for languages and literature. I like to focus my teaching on global issues, associating studies with a real world context, and finding interesting points of engagement with the subject matter through culture, history, art and music. I'm a friendly face and an expert mentor in all things exam related: I also have expertise in teaching students with learning difficulties. In my sessions, I aim to build student confidence, empower students with their growing knowledge and help them to adopt the resilient attitude you need to conquer the IB! Outside of tutoring I love ballet, swimming, playing guitar and acting.

I'm Mike, and I have been working in IB schools for more than 10 years, teaching MYP and DP English Language and Literature, English B, and Theory of Knowledge, and have taken on the leadership roles of Diploma Coordinator, Extended Essay Coordinator, TOK Coordinator, and Head of English. I have five years of experience as an IBDP English examiner, marking the Individual Oral and Paper 2, and have been an English and TOK tutor since 2020. In terms of my tutoring approach, I am very much focused on helping students with whatever they need help with, and in whatever way they need help. That's why my first two questions for my students are always some variation on: "What do you want to work on, and how do you want to work on it?" And if a student doesn't know how to answer those questions, I have plenty of suggestions that will help you find the answer. Outside of tutoring, I love reading, watching sports, and spending time with my family.

I am Laura and I am an English A and TOK teacher. I am also my school's IB Coordinator as well as an IB examiner, so have a lot of experience in the world of IB! I have worked in schools in the UK, Europe, South American and North America. I have over a decade's experience teaching English A (Language and Literature, Literature, and Literature and Performance courses) and have taught and tutored many students who have achieved the highest grades at SL and HL. In my tutoring, I have a wealth of resources to break down the skills required for exams and IAs and to build confidence in analysing and evaluating effective examples for both exam papers; making sure the foundations are strong to develop individual analysis is something I do in all lessons I teach. I have years of experience working with students with accommodations and have a range of resources to help those who need more explicit examples and chunking of tasks. Being an examiner, I also have many years of past questions and papers to help with final preparations as well. I am happy to support at any stage of the IB process and give you confidence boosts in your own work when needed! Outside of tutoring, I do a lot of reading, exercising and walking my dog. I am also trying to keep up my own language learning of Portuguese and Italian.

I currently serve as the Head and Coordinator of the IB Diploma and Career-related Programmes at Beaconhouse Newlands Islamabad and contribute to the IB community as an IBEN Workshop Leader, IBEN Evaluation Leader, and IB Examiner for English Language and Literature and Theory of Knowledge.

I am an experienced IB examiner in Literature, Language & Literature, and Literature & Performance, with over two decades of teaching experience across the Diploma Programme, including Theory of Knowledge (Essay). I currently teach IB English Language & Literature (HL/SL), Literature & Performance, and Theory of Knowledge at an all-scholarship K–12 international school, where students are deeply engaged, academically ambitious, and highly motivated.

I’m Tahmina, an experienced IB teacher and IB Examiner specializing in English A, English B, Russian A, and Theory of Knowledge (TOK). I hold a Master’s degree in Educational Management from ADA University and a Bachelor’s in English Literature from the Azerbaijan University of Languages. For over seven years, I have been teaching at Khazar University Dunya IB School, where I work with MYP and DP students as a Language A/B and TOK teacher, Extended Essay supervisor, and ATL Coordinator. My certifications include IB training in Language and Literature, English B, TOK, ATL skills, and Extended Essay supervision. Alongside my school experience, I have taught Russian A, as well as SAT and IELTS preparation, and coordinated international academic competitions. My tutoring style is structured yet supportive: I focus on helping students break down complex ideas, refine their critical thinking, and build strong exam strategies. As an IB Examiner, I know exactly what examiners are looking for and guide my students to meet and exceed those expectations. I see myself not only as a tutor but also as a mentor who helps students grow in confidence and independence. Outside the classroom, I enjoy literature, exploring global education trends, and speaking four languages: Azerbaijani, English, Turkish, and Russian.
