HOW OUR IB ToK TUTORING WORKS
Theory of Knowledge (ToK) is one of the core components of the IB Diploma Programme. The ToK course provides an opportunity for students to reflect on the nature of knowledge, and on 鈥渉ow we know鈥� what we claim to know. Students will be required to think deeply and philosophically about what knowledge actually is; where it comes from, what it is constituted of, and the role of bias in shaping our views and beliefs.
The ToK tutors we work with can ensure students think broadly about the subject they are focusing on, considering all angles and approaches carefully and help your child develop an effective plan to complete it. Tutors can help students choose a title that suits your academic skills and interests, understand the ToK key terms and help you understand the recommended essay format and structure. Please note that our support with ToK is limited to helping your child in thinking about and selecting the focus for their ToK essay and exhibition, and in developing an effective plan to complete it.
Tutors will follow guidelines set out by the exam boards and therefore will be unable to directly review, edit or provide written feedback on the ToK.

FINDING THE RIGHT TUTOR FOR EACH CHILD
We go the extra mile to match a great tutor with your child and ensure a perfect fit.
When you request a tutor through Keystone we spend a significant amount of time learning about your circumstances. Priding ourselves on how well we know our tutors鈥� specialist strengths, we ensure that we put forward the very best tutor for your requirements.
During the first session the tutor starts by assessing where the child is at, their academic ability, their strengths and perceived weaknesses. Tutors will then devise a programme tailored to the specific circumstances of the student.
After the first lesson, one of our dedicated client managers will contact you to find out how the lesson went. Our client managers are always available at the end of the phone and they are frequently praised for their efficiency, dedication and responsiveness.

The ToK essay task encourages an academic approach, which will help students become more familiar with a university-style essay. This will ease the transition to academia, especially for those required to write essays for their chosen university course.
We have a monthly reporting system which is used to update parents on an ongoing basis. The monthly report details:
- the focus of that month鈥檚 tutoring
- the form of assessment used
- the student's achievements and areas for further work
- the focus for the coming month
The regular, rigorous reporting of the tutors we represent is frequently commended by parents.

Guide to IB Revision Techniques
When to begin IB revision? IB exams begin as early as late April for some subjects, and your revision perhaps begins in earnest with your mock exams, which generally take place early in your final year of IB study. Revising for mocks will give you an opportunity to test what it is like to revise course material you鈥檝e already covered, and rehearse some of the revision techniques that will become so crucial later on in the year.
