02 ·Teaching Philosophy
Why do people eat till they are miserable at a buffet?
Why do neighbourhoods with high crime rates often have broken windows?
Why do high-end restaurants charge US$20 for a bottle of water?
These are not trivial questions but are questions of economics and business in our everyday lives.
If you tell a 16/17-year-old to "do well" in IB when our world today is filled with distractions. It is mission impossible. The task at hand is too big, and the persuasion is too weak.
Since 2015, I have coached over 100 students to achieve their desired grade in IB Economics / Business SL / HL.
Amongst these 100 students, 40% are level 6/7 students looking to reach the perfect 45. They already know the content but is just missing the secret sauce to get a solid 7. My strategy is simple. Find the knowledge gap, double down on the deficient skill & knowledge and grind in accordance with a checklist. And of course, perfect the IAs.
My result? All but 1 student obtained a level 7 in the end.
