IB Geography SL Tutoring FAQ
Studying geography doesn't just consist of memorizing borders and names, and the rigors of Geography SL in the International Baccalaureate program attest to this. Exploring the many complexities that supplement basic physical topography and borders, IB Geography SL focuses on the various demographic and political realities that are reflected in the physical map of the globe. From the movement of populations from one land to another, to themes treating the realities of the rights of sea use, the course discusses a number of issues that make studying the geography of the planet a complex affair that far outstrips basic geography classes.
Whether you are in the midst of your studies or are preparing for your IB Geography SL examination, personal IB Geography SL tutoring can assist you in learning these complex topics. ΄σΟσ΄«Γ½ can help you connect with an excellent set of geography instructors who can help you prepare for IB success. Whether you would like to cover the basic core topics or to focus on the specific themes covered in your particular class, our educational directors can help you select a talented tutor who has expertise in the areas in which you need help. From the contentions of oceanic politics to the geographic realities of consumption and environmental quality, there is no IB Geography SL topic that your tutor cannot help you better understand. Your tutor is an excellent teacher and can help you master the complex web of sociopolitical and geographic data that faces you as you prepare for your IB papers.
In today's global economy, it is pivotal to have a keen knowledge of the world stage and the many realities that are altering the face of the globe. Your mastery of the International Baccalaureate's Geography SL syllabus can provide you with a firm foundation for considering the pivotal issues facing our world today. Such a foundation can provide you with an excellent basis for future social, economic, and political studies, and can help make you a responsible member of the global community.
When you choose to work closely with an IB Geography SL tutor, you are able to learn from a customized lesson plan that is designed to suit your needs and learning styles. Not only will your instructor work to help you overcome problematic concepts, but they will also help you develop an appreciation for the field as a whole. Furthermore, since you are in control of the direction each lesson takes, you decide if you want to spend extra time reviewing difficult theories, or if you want to move on to other material. For this reason, private lessons are a more efficient way of learning than the traditional educational model.
Since all lessons are centered on you and your success, your tutor is happy to accommodate your busy schedule. You can choose to have lessons anytime during the week that is convenient for you, including the weekends. Moreover, you can choose to learn through in-person tutoring sessions taught in the convenience of your own home, at your favorite coffee shop, or anywhere else nearby. If you would prefer to learn electronically, simply request that your tutor meets you through face-to-face online tutoring sessions. No matter what your learning preferences are, your tutor will be happy to help you.

Recent IB Geography SL Tutoring Session Notes
Today, the student and I worked on more assessment review. She took three review quizzes (Native Americans and European Exploration, Colonial Georgia, and the American Revolution) and then we discussed the questions that she missed. As we talked through the questions, we realized that she missed them due to not reading the questions carefully. Once we re-read the questions, she was able to identify the correct answer. There were also a few questions that she had not covered in class yet, but I explained to her that there will be some questions on the assessment that she will not know. She needs to be comfortable answering questions that she is unfamiliar with. I also spent time talking to the student and her mother about courses for next year.
Reviewed significant people from Colonial period through Reconstruction and categorized them by contribution. Began outline and pre-writing for final essay. Labeled significant geographical features of the continental United States.
Assigned two more ACT vocab sheets for next session. The student's mother would like copies or originals of pretests in both English and Social Studies to mark "home schooling" progress. We will finish up all Social Studies content in the next two sessions together. At that point, she will complete an online 8th grade Social Studies culminating final, and the remainder of our sessions will focus strictly on English.
The student completed 2/3 of the English homework, getting stuck on the 3rd part of the essay on Edgar Allen Poe. The third part asks her to discuss his poems and writing style. She had written on tone, so we added rhyme, symbols, theme, and repetition. Then she added a few favorite quotes (required), and concluded. The piece still remaining is for her to write a narrative poem on Jackie Robinson. For the remaining hour, we worked on postcards assignment in Ancient Civ. She was to write 5 postcards home from various ancient Roman ruins. We listened to audio lectures, took note, and wrote the postcards. As our time ended, she was ready to submit assignment.
The student and I finished his math and social studies homework. His math was about measuring and using appropriate units. It was a straightforward assignment and he completed it quickly and with very little difficulty. His social studies homework took much more time and effort because it required writing extended responses to some review questions for the chapter he has been working on, Ancient Greece. We worked together to write comprehensive and well-organized paragraphs, with introduction sentences, specific details, and a conclusion. He did fairly well with this more structured approach to writing, and we will try to do the same thing in the future.
I met with the student on May 1st. He had been sick the day before so we worked on the assignments he missed. After we completed the reading assignment he missed, I asked brief questions to check his comprehension and understanding of the chapter. We worked on an extra credit writing assignment on Pizarro. He did not do any reading journal entries and he will try to do at least two before our next meeting. I think the reading journal entries (just two to three sentences per entry) will really help him and I look forward to seeing what he writes next week.
We worked on his Social Studies assignment regarding the 1960s to 1970s, especially focusing on Vietnam.
He then had a couple of problems with his mathematics (geometry rotations, translation, and reflections).
