IB MATHEMATICS HIGHER LEVEL
ANALYSIS &
APPROACHES
Gore's IB Math tutoring programs are
well known in Dubai! Mr. Vikram has been an IB Math and Physics tutor for past 20 years. He has tutored more students from almost all the reputed IB schools
in Dubai as well as from abroad (Singapore / EU / India). www.gorestutoring.com
IB Math curriculum has undergone a
complete transformation recently. The new specification (first exams from 2021)
will have broadly two mathematics course offerings: (1) Analysis &
Approaches and (2) Applications & Interpretations. call 050 90 21 727 / 052 768 9565
The IB board has discontinued with
Mathematical Studies course. Hence, (1) and (2) now will have two
levels each namely Higher and Standard level.
In Dubai, the IB Math Analysis &
Approaches (AA) HL is gaining popularity due to its content and scope. The chances
of acceptance into reputed universities are higher with this course (IB Math AA
HL). Hence, a comprehensive study is required to crack this exam and score
maximum grades not only in the finals but also in the school tests and mocks.
The students need to score consistently in the school tests/mocks so as to
maximize their predicted scores. The predicted scores are important for
University admissions.
At Gore's, the tutoring for IB Math
AA HL is designed as per the latest IB specifications guidelines. Broadly
speaking, the course has five major topics: Number & Algebra, Functions,
Geometry& Trigonometry, Probability & Statistics and Calculus.
The Exam format of IB Math AA HL: 3
exam papers comprising of Paper 1 (Non Calculator), and Paper 2 & 3
(Calculator) + Math Exploration. The exam papers account for 80% of the
final grade. Math exploration accounts for 20 % of the final grade.
We will be covering all the topics
that are specified in IB specifications both for exam papers as well as for the
IB Math exploration. Mr. Vikram and his team of tutors have prepared a large
repository of exam style questions for each topic outlined in the IB
syllabus.
The IB Math AA HL syllabus will be
covered with concept - basic questions - exam style questions - real world
applications-problem solving format. Each concept needs detailed explanation.
Following the explanation, the tutors will provide drill sheet with basic
questions.
Once the basic questions have been answered, Mr. Vikram's IB Math AA HL exam worksheets will be provided. These worksheets have exam style questions that have been modeled along the new pattern. After the exam style questions are done 75 % of the concept is covered. The other 25% is Real world applications / Problem solving questions using the concepts that have been covered earlier. The target is to cover content specific to Paper 1, Paper 2 and Paper 3 comprehensively.

The classes are in small groups led
by Mr. Vikram and his team of tutors based in Dubai. Mr. Vikram has developed the expertise of teaching in small
groups over the last 16 years. The student gets the feel of one to one tutoring
even though he/she is in a group.
This is done by the task splitting technique.
Ideally, an experienced teacher takes 10 minutes to explain one concept. Once
the concept is explained / taught, a worksheet that contains large number of
questions on that concept are given to the student.
We have a large repository of questions developed over 16
years! As the student does the practice, another trained teacher keeps
watch on the working and provides assistance or explanation as the student
solves. Hence, at any given point of time there is always a teacher available
for every student in the group!
The main teacher would then be teaching another student the
concept, while rest of the group does the worksheet questions. There are
instances when a student needs explanation more than two times. This is
provided as we work in rotation.
Gore's has a team of trained IB tutors based in India at
its IB tutoring center where trained tutors are available Online on our
dedicated interactive portal to provide One to One explanation while a group
class is going on at our Dubai center!
