What We Cover

Complete IB Diploma English curriculum coverage

Every topic aligned to the official syllabus. Every session taught with the mark scheme in view — not just content delivery but exactly how to demonstrate knowledge for maximum marks.

📖
Paper 1 — Guided literary analysis
Unseen text analysis in English. Students write a guided literary analysis of an unseen poem or prose extract. HL has no guiding questions; SL has guiding questions. Marks awarded for understanding, analysis, language, and structure.
✍️
Paper 2 — Comparative essay
Students write a comparative essay on works studied in class. The essay must address a formal question and compare at least two works. HL 1000–1500 words; SL 1000–1500 words. Analytical argument and literary terminology are essential.
🗣️
Individual Oral (IO)
30% of the final grade. Students present an analysis of an extract from one of their studied works connected to a global issue, then discuss with the examiner. Our tutors coach the exact IO structure and oral presentation skills.
📚
Works studied
IB Language A students study literary works across prose, poetry, and drama. Our tutors support analysis of all works on the IB prescribed reading list and help students develop the comparative framework needed for Paper 2.
🏆
HL Essay (HL only)
A formal 1200–1500 word essay on a literary work studied during the course. Developed with teacher supervision and submitted for external marking. Our tutors guide topic selection, argumentation, and formal academic writing in English.
🎭
Literary terminology and analysis
Sophisticated use of literary terminology — imagery, symbolism, narrative perspective, structure, tone — is essential for IB Language A. Our tutors build analytical vocabulary progressively throughout the course.

Why Sev7n

Why students choose Sev7n for IB Diploma English

1
Mark scheme taught in every session
The most powerful thing a student can learn is exactly how examiners award marks. Not just what the right answer is — but how to present it, how much detail to give, which command term requires which response type. Sev7n tutors teach from mark schemes and examiner reports in every session.
2
Past paper coaching as the core method
Content knowledge is necessary but not sufficient. Students who practise past papers with real-time mark scheme feedback — session by session — build the examination fluency that produces grade improvement. Past paper work is central to every Sev7n session, not an add-on.
3
Sessions recorded on Sev7n LMS
Every session is saved to the student's personal dashboard. Students replay worked solutions, mark scheme walkthroughs, and examiner guidance as many times as they need — particularly valuable in the week before examinations.
4
48,000+ students across 30+ countries
Our tutors work with students in India, UAE, Singapore, the UK, the US, and across Europe. We understand the international examination landscape, the specific challenges faced by students at international schools, and the university pathways that follow from IB Diploma English results.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions — IB Diploma English

How is IB Diploma English assessed? +
IB Diploma English is assessed through Paper 1 (receptive skills, 25%), Paper 2 (productive skills, 25%), Individual Oral (30%), and internally assessed listening (20%). HL students have additional content requirements. The Individual Oral is the most consistently undercoached component — Sev7n tutors coach it explicitly.
What is the difference between HL and SL in IB English? +
HL (Higher Level) English has greater complexity, longer written requirements, and for Language B includes literary texts. SL (Standard Level) covers the same themes with less depth and shorter written outputs. The Individual Oral format is identical for HL and SL. Most students study Language B; native or near-native speakers study Language A.
When should IB English tutoring start? +
Ideally at the beginning of Year 12 to build vocabulary, thematic knowledge, and analytical skills progressively across two years. Students starting in Year 13 benefit most from intensive IO preparation and past paper practice for Papers 1 and 2. IO preparation typically requires 6–8 dedicated sessions.
Is Sev7n's IB English tutoring conducted in English? +
Yes — Sev7n's IB English tutors are fluent English speakers. Sessions are conducted primarily in English for immersion, with English used for explanation of assessment criteria and mark scheme analysis where helpful. This bilingual approach ensures both language development and examination technique are built simultaneously.
