ToK Essay & Exhibition Help
I can provide a range of different support options to help you to be successful on your ToK course. I can give you help with your ToK Essay or ToK Exhibition.
i provide 4 main services to help you complete your essay/exhibition
01
ToK Essay / Exhibition Draft Written Feedback
If you have written your ToK Essay / Exhibition, but want written feedback before you submit it to your teacher we can offer you that feedback. We can tell you the most likely score that it will achieve, and help you to develop the essay / Exhibition for a higher score. Sessions last 45 minutes, in which we will use the IB Assessment Instrument (assessment rubric) to identify areas of strength, areas for development, application, interpretation, analysis, evaluation and implications. This service is designed to help you to ‘fine tune’ your essay before submission.
NB. The Draft Submission is an absolutely key stage in the essay process as this is the only stage when your ToK teacher can you give you written feedback. You significantly improve the probability of receiving a high score for the ToK Essay by submitting a fully completed Draft essay as this gives your teacher more content to feedback on (which gives you more tips to improve the essay).

Over a number of sessions I can work with you to develop your ToK Essay. I will take you from question selection, through planning, writing to final essay submission.
