Words cannot express how grateful I am to have Peter as my IB Chemistry tutor. Peter brought my IB Chemistry mark from a 5 to a 7 over the course of these two years. His humorous attitude makes classes engaging.

Common Questions

Q1What is the difference between IB Spanish B SL and HL?
Answer: Depth & Complexity. While both levels cover the same five themes, Spanish B HL requires studying two literary works and has slightly different assessment criteria for writing and speaking. HL students are expected to demonstrate more nuance, a wider range of vocabulary, and complex grammar structures.
Q2How do you prepare students for the AP Spanish Language & Culture Exam?
Answer: Holistic Practice. We focus on all four skills: reading, writing, listening, and speaking. We drill the specific exam tasks (email reply, persuasive essay, cultural comparison) using past papers and provide rigorous feedback on grammar and flow. We also immerse you in authentic media to build listening stamina.
Q3Can you help with Spanish Ab Initio?
Answer: Absolutely. Spanish Ab Initio is for beginners, but it moves fast. Our tutors help you master the basics of grammar (conjugations, gender, core vocabulary) quickly so you can focus on producing clear, communicative texts required for the portfolio and exams.
Q4Do you support AP Spanish Literature?
Answer: Yes. This is one of the toughest AP courses. Our specialized tutors guide you through the required reading list (Peninsular and Latin American literature), helping you analyze themes, historical context, and literary devices to write high-scoring essays.
Q5Is online Spanish tutoring effective for speaking practice?
Answer: Highly Effective. Our online sessions are interactive. We use video calls for real-time conversation practice, simulating the IB Internal Assessment (Oral) or AP conversation tasks. We give immediate feedback on pronunciation and fluency.
Q6What if my child is taking Spanish in a regular Canadian curriculum?
Answer: usage-based approach. Whether it's Grade 11/12 Spanish or younger, we focus on helping them actually use the language. We reinforce school grammar lessons but prioritize confidence in speaking and writing, which usually translates to higher grades.
