Private IB Extended Essay Tutoring

Our interview process, stringent qualifications, and background screening ensure that only the best IB Extended Essay tutors work with Varsity Tutors. To assure a successful experience, you're paired with one of these qualified tutors by an expert director - and we stand behind that match with our money-back guarantee.

Receive personally tailored IB Extended Essay lessons from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with the best tutor for your particular needs while offering flexible scheduling to fit your busy life.

Research and writing will be here today and tomorrow, no matter which academic path you choose. The IB Extended Essay has been placed in your core IB curriculum because of the critical importance of this skillset in your future studies. Whether you will be writing scientific journal articles in physics or doing research on the recondite details of ancient languages, your future academic work will need to be informed by excellent training in expression and research. Therefore, the work that you do in constructing your extended essay is critical not only to your success in the International Baccalaureate program, but also to your future endeavors. Make the most of this challenge today and set the foundations for a successful future. Contact Varsity Tutors today for help getting connected with the perfect IB Extended Essay tutor to help you achieve your writing goals!

The best writing is accomplished by rewriting, and the best rewriting occurs only when a work is critiqued by a calm and unbiased eye. An experienced IB Extended Essay tutor can provide you with critical assistance, both helping you to identify the weaknesses in your argumentation as well as providing you with guidance on how best to ameliorate these weaknesses and make your self-expression as effective and clear as possible. Without such help, you may overlook many issues in your writing, leading you to craft a work that does not meet the standards to which you are capable of writing. Time and effort are necessary for writing the best Extended Essay you can, and your tutor can help you effectively apply your skills.

Likewise, though you certainly are an advanced student at this point in your educational career, the details of research are likely still relatively new to you. A knowledgeable writing tutor can teach you how to find the best background information, help you carefully consider your sources, and craft a tight argument that considers the key points of research literature relevant to your investigation. Likewise, he or she can challenge you to find the most authoritative and applicable sources, helping to lend gravitas to your argument. The sources of your information are incredibly important. The right sources can lead to a grounded, precise essay, while weak, inaccurate sources can discredit your entire piece. With the trove of accessible information that exists today in books, magazines, newspapers, and online, it can be difficult, and oftentimes overwhelming, to locate sources that are both factual and reputable. Writing tutors have extensive experience sifting through pools of information and selecting the right sources. They have strategies and tips on how to make the process easier, and they are eager to share those tips with you. A writing tutor can offer you an arsenal of essay writing tools and tricks that will make preparing your IB Extended Essay much easier.

Finally, personal IB Extended Essay tutoring can help you develop your own distinctive contribution in your essay. This exercise is meant to show the IB examiners that you are thinking through a topic on your own and in-depth, synthesizing a mass of material into a real whole - not just a mere heap of facts. You will be developing your own particular insight and argument that needs to shine forth in your research and prose. A personal tutor can help you develop this insight to its fullest, allowing your genius to shine through at the time of the examination. With such advantages, you should not hesitate for a moment to find a personal tutor to help you prepare your extended essay.

Tutors are available to meet either in-person or face-to-face online, whichever is more convenient for you. Contact Varsity Tutors today to connect with an IB Extended Essay tutor!

My name is Rob White

I have been a teacher for more than 30 years. I have extensive experience working with IB students from around the world. I am an IB Examiner for both Language and Literature and Extended Essay. I provide engaging, challenging practice tasks to allow you to improve your ability to take on assessment tasks. I offer detailed feedback to help shape your thinking, sharpen your organization, and improve your writing and speaking. 

What to Expect

For students, working to complete the expectations of the Diploma Programme is a challenging task. In a classroom setting, your teacher can provide you with a set of clear explanations of the nature of the subject and how best to succeed. If you're struggling in a subject, though, it's often difficult to receive the one-on-one help that might be required. 

First, I can offer detailed, sustained, targeted support in the key elements of IB English: understanding and interpreting texts, analyzing and evaluating an author's intentions; organizing your thinking; using language effectively and appropriately.

I'll work with you to develop your skills and build your confidence. Guided practice and detailed feedback will allow you to take on the range of assessments in the IB English course.

Tutoring Services

Because of the nature of the IB Diploma Programme, students can come to feel overwhelmed about the demands they’re facing. Very often, one source of this stress is dealing with topics, concepts, and subjects that aren’t your strength. With the breadth of the programme and the intensity of the pace, you might find yourself feeling like you’re always trying to catch up. One-to-one tutoring support gives you a chance to focus your limited time and attention . Each session will allow you to monitor progress , to get feedback on where improvement is required, and to consolidate understanding.

IB English Tutoring 

IB Language and Literature

IB Literature

Tutoring in English requires sustained practice in essential skills. Each week, our sessions will include opportunities to practice how to understand a range of texts, to analyze the effects of an author’s choices, to provide greater focus and organization to thinking and writing, and to write effectively. With one-on-one guidance, you will develop a set of approaches that can be applied in each of the high stakes assessment tasks in IB English: 

Paper 1 Exam 

Paper 2 Exam 

Individual Oral

HL Essay. 

Sessions will also allow you to develop a stronger grasp of the IB’s approach to the study of Language and Literature.

Unlocking understanding requires examining the nature of Areas of Exploration, Concepts, and the Learner’s Portfolio.

Practical advice about the best ways to use these course elements will allow you produce your best work.

IB TOK Tutoring

TOK Essay ​

The TOK Essay presents a unique set of challenges for you as an IB Student. It is a one-time task worth 66% of your final grade in the course. You may not have had opportunities to complete formative assignments that give you confidence in your approach to the task. It’s also common to feel intimidated by the TOK Essay Titles. Your TOK teacher may not be experienced in the course or in giving guidance and feedback. 

I’ll work with you at the key stages of the process to help guide your independent work in completing the TOK Essay assessment:

Choosing an TOK Essay title that matches your understanding and experiences

Planning an essay structure that allows you to meet the expectations of the assessment criteria

Researching the content required to support your argument

Drafting your essay that reflects your thinking 

I’ll offer detailed feedback on your essay draft and help show the ways your work can be sharpened and improved. 

​ Click to Get Started!

TOK Exhibition

Success in the TOK Exhibition requires a clear, thoughtful approach to linking each of the components — the IA prompt, the objects/images, and the commentary that connects these elements. Advice, feedback, and guidance on navigating the process can be invaluable in performing well.

I’ll work with you to unlock your thinking about your work in the course and its links to your experience of the world. Shaping your thinking in a way that clearly addresses the Exhibition assessment criteria will allow you to approach the task with confidence. My tutoring will support your work in completing the steps of the process:

Exhibition planning, including choosing the right IA prompt

Feedback on choosing objects/images 

Guidance on how to best justify the connection among the objects, their real-world contexts, and the IA prompt

Feedback on your commentary draft

With one-to-one support, you can build the necessary confidence to feel like you’re completing your best work in the TOK Exhibition. 

IB Extended Essay Tutoring 

The Extended Essay stands out among IB assessments. It is designed to be completed outside of the subject structure of the rest of the Diploma Programme. There is no accompanying class to provide opportunities to complete formative tasks that offer feedback and build confidence. All of the key choices — subject, topic, focus, etc. — are, ultimately up to you. It’s not surprising that you may feel overwhelmed by the demands the EE places on you. I’ve spent eight years as an IB Examiner for Group One (English) Extended Essays, reading hundreds of student essays. I’ve also worked with dozens of students as mentor as they completed their researching, planning, drafting, and revising.  

I will work with you to help you navigate the process of completing your English Extended Essay. I will provide you with focused advice on the practical steps you can take to approach your work with the self-confidence required to do your best on the project:

Choosing an appropriate topic, including a clear, narrow focus 

Selecting sources that demonstrate academic rigor while being useful for you as a reader and writer

Managing your time to help balance with the commitments of the rest of the DP

Planning and drafting your essay to best address the range of assessment criteria

I will provide detailed feedback on your Extended Essay draft that you can you to sharpen your thinking and help you polish your writing. 

To get started, you and I will meet to discuss your needs, explore the guidance and support available, and develop a targeted plan. 

Once we decide to work together, each lesson lasts for 60 minutes. The cost is $70 per lesson, paid by PayPal or bank transfer. Lessons will be booked in blocks of five (for English support) or 3-5 (for TOK or Extended Essay Support). 

Complete the form below, and I’ll provide the details you need to get the support you need.
