Challenges Faced By IB TOK Students
Feeling overwhelmed by the IB TOK curriculum
It is common knowledge that the IB TOK curriculum is becoming increasingly difficult and rigorous for students. Being an extremely rigorous programme, many IB TOK students thus experience stress, and feel overwhelmed by the curriculum at this young age.
That is why we recommend that you engage a Top IB TOK Tutor as soon as possible, in order to lend a helping hand to your child as they take on this arduous journey. Your child will be more confident and assured, knowing that they have an extra pillar of support that they can rely on in their IB TOK journey.
Scared To Speak Up in Class
Some IB TOK Students tend to face difficulties speaking up or clarifying their doubts in class. This is especially true for students who happen to have a more timid or quiet temperament, and is made worse by the large class sizes in schools which can be very intimidating. They may be afraid of being laughed at by their peers, and as a result do not speak up in class.
Here at MindFlex, we believe that it is very important that students voice out their concerns and doubts as soon as possible in order to create a smoother learning process. Furthermore, doing so will train these IB TOK students in the skill of Effective Communication, which is a skill that needs to be trained from young.
Time Management
Many IB TOK students face the problem of being unable to complete their paper on time. This is largely due to insufficient practice and lack of exposure to the various question types, resulting in them being unaware of how to tackle the questions during examination. As such, students often hand in incomplete papers, or hand in subpar answers.
With a Top IB TOK Tutor, however, students will be given weekly practices and exposure to other schools’ papers and past year papers to help hone their examination skills, allowing them to be more confident when tackling their IB TOK examinations.
Poor examination performance
It is often a common sight to see IB TOK students study hard for their various tests and examinations, but end up scoring poorly in their IB TOK examinations.
MindFlex recommends that IB TOK students complete their revision and practice papers in a simulated examination environment and under timed conditions, so as to ensure that they are able to perform well in their actual examinations. That is why we cover the Best IB TOK Tuition in Singapore that offers just that for all IB TOK students!
Why You Should Engage A TOK Tutor
1. Provision of Additional Revision Resources
Oftentimes, it can be rather difficult for students or parents to source for IB TOK revision resources on their own. These resources could include revision summary notes and additional practice papers, and are absolutely crucial to consolidate students’ learning.
With the help of a Top IB TOK Tutor, students will be provided with additional resources such as past-year practice papers and summary sheets in order to aid in their learning process, as well as supplement the materials that they are provided with in school.
2. Reinforce Learning Done in School
Oftentimes, the teaching done in school is extremely fast-paced, resulting in students having a hard time catching up or understanding the content taught in school. If this continues snowballing, students will start to feel unmotivated and undetermined to learn.
With a good IB TOK Tutor, students will be provided additional guidance. Tutors will be able to go through the content learnt in school, clarifying any doubts students might have. Through this, students will have a better grasp of the learning done in school.
3. Help Students Clarify Doubts
At the IB TOK, some students still might not be well-adjusted to the competitive environment as well as the teaching methods of their IB TOK school teachers. As such, students might not be willing to clarify any doubts with their teachers. Instead, many students may let their doubts pile up without clearing them.
However, with the help of a dedicated IB TOK Tutor, they will provide 100% attention and guidance to students. Students will be able to clarify their doubts or misconceptions in a private 1-1 setting.
4. Clear Misconceptions
Some IB TOK students might not be well-adjusted to the competitive environment as well as the teaching methods of their IB TOK school teachers. As such, students might not be willing to clarify any doubts with their teachers. Instead, many students may let their doubts pile up without clearing them, and end up sitting for their examinations with uncleared doubts.
However, with the help of a dedicated IB TOK Tutor, they will provide 100% attention and guidance to students. Students will be able to clarify their doubts or misconceptions in a private 1-1 setting.
What To Look For in A TOK Tutor
Commitment
It is also very important to check if the IB TOK tutor that you select is able to commit to your time slot in the long term. This is important, as it would definitely be a pity for the tutor to build a strong rapport with your child, and then subsequently cancel future lessons due to clashes in your schedules.
Here at MindFlex, we recommend that you check with your IB TOK tutor on whether they are able to commit in the long-term in order to avoid disappointment and the disruption of your child’s learning.
Lessons in Accordance to Latest IB TOK Syllabus
All lessons provided by our highly competent IB TOK Tutors are regularly updated and are in accordance with the latest IB Syllabus to ensure that students are well-versed with the required content needed to do well in IB TOK examinations.
With MindFlex’s Best IB TOK Tuition in Singapore, students can be assured that they are in good and safe hands, as they will learn to achieve content mastery and be well-equipped with relevant skill sets to do well in school.
Ability to Provide Additional Resources
For IB TOK, it is probably difficult to find reliable and recent resources for your child. Hence, by choosing an IB TOK Tutor that is able to provide additional resources, you can save time on hunting for resources and leave it to your child’s IB TOK Tutor!
The ability to provide additional resources also means that the tutor has spent time and effort curating these resources – which is also a marker of their commitment and dedication. Hence, when searching for an IB TOK Tutor, it would be great to look out for tutors who are able to provide their own self-collated resources.
Are they currently teaching/taught other IB TOK students
It is imperative that you check if the tutor you are interested in engaging has experience in teaching other IB TOK students. With such experience, they will then be familiar with the current IB TOKsyllabus and common examination practices. It is thus important that you ensure that the tutor has been teaching students of similar levels.
MindFlex also recommends that you choose tutors who have experience in teaching IB TOK to students of similar levels or have the personal academic achievements to teach IB TOK.
