IB Drama tutors
1 UK tutor who teach Drama at IB.
Drama at GCSE and A-level (AQA, Edexcel, Eduqas, OCR) combines practical performance, devising work, set-text study and written analysis. The set texts range across Shakespeare, modern and contemporary drama, Brecht, Stanislavski-tradition naturalism, and theatre practitioner study. Tutoring helps most with the written analysis (which weights more than students expect: performance review and live-theatre evaluation papers), with the devising portfolio, and with set-text close reading from a performer's rather than a literary perspective. Look for tutors with theatre training plus explicit GCSE/A-level moderation experience; pure performers without spec experience often miss the assessment-objective specifics.
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.
