IB Spanish tutors
2 of 2 UK tutors teaching Spanish at IB.
Spanish has overtaken German as the second most-popular MFL in UK schools, offered at GCSE, A-level and IB. The grammar load (subjunctive, ser/estar, preterite/imperfect) is the usual stumbling block, alongside the speaking exam where unprepared photo-card questions catch students out. A-level adds set-text and film study — La casa de Bernarda Alba, Volver, Pan's labyrinth and others, depending on board. Tutoring helps most with grammar consolidation at GCSE and with literary analysis in Spanish at A-level. Native fluency is necessary but not sufficient — look for tutors who know the specific spec (AQA, Edexcel, Eduqas) and the assessed texts.
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.
