IB Art tutors
1 UK tutor who teach Art at IB.
'Art' as a GCSE and A-level (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, Eduqas) is overwhelmingly a portfolio-and-coursework subject — the externally set assignment plus the personal investigation drive the grade. Drawing skill matters less than the documented development of ideas, evidence of artist research, and the journey shown in the sketchbook. Tutoring helps most with portfolio development (most students under-document their process), with art-historical and contemporary references, and with the written component at A-level (the personal investigation essay, 1,000-3,000 words depending on board). Look for practising artists with explicit GCSE/A-level moderation experience.
The International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme is a two-year sixth-form qualification taken in place of A-levels, offered by some independent and a small number of state schools. Students take six subjects (three Higher Level, three Standard Level) plus the Theory of Knowledge course, the Extended Essay, and CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service). UK universities accept the IB on equivalent UCAS-points terms, often with course-specific subject requirements. Tutoring helps most with HL subject content (which goes beyond A-level in some cases), with the Extended Essay, and with the Theory of Knowledge essay and presentation. Look for tutors with explicit IB teaching or examining experience.
