IB English Language & Literature tutoring — common questions
What is the difference between IB English Language and Literature and IB English Literature?
IB English Language & Literature studies both literary texts and non-literary language texts (media, speeches, advertising). IB English Literature studies only literary texts (novels, poetry, drama). Lang & Lit is broader and more diverse; Literature goes deeper into purely literary analysis. Most IB schools offer one or the other — our tutors cover both in full.
How should my child prepare for the IB Individual Oral (IO)?
The IO requires a 10-minute prepared oral on a global issue explored through two texts (one literary, one non-literary). Preparation involves careful extract selection, a clearly articulated global issue, and a structured argument that moves between the two texts. Our tutors run full mock IOs with detailed criterion-by-criterion feedback.
What texts are studied in IB English Language and Literature?
IB English Lang & Lit texts include a literary work, a work in translation, and a range of non-literary bodies of work (media texts, speeches, etc.). The specific texts vary by school. Our tutors are familiar with the full range of commonly chosen IB texts and tailor sessions to your child's school selection.
What is the HL Essay in IB English and how is it assessed?
The HL Essay is a 1,200-word literary essay submitted as coursework, worth 25% of the HL grade. It is assessed on knowledge and understanding, analysis and evaluation, focus and organisation, and language. Students choose their own text and question. Our tutors support the full HL Essay process from topic selection and planning through to final draft.
Is IB English Language and Literature harder than IB English Literature?
They are comparable in demand but test different skills. Lang & Lit requires analytical flexibility across a wider range of text types (literary and non-literary). Literature focuses more deeply on literary analysis and comparative study. Students who enjoy analysing media and language often prefer Lang & Lit; those who love literature often prefer Literature.
