IB Economics Private and Online Tutoring

Why is IB Economics so difficult?

IB Economics is a challenge because of demanding theoretical concepts, grueling responses to data analysis questions, and the requirement for concise, well-structured essay writing. Our IB Economics tutors are focused on breaking down economic concepts and teaching exam skills to help boost our students’ points.

For HL Economics students, there is also the additional challenge of Paper 3, which involves further mathematical calculation and conceptual understanding. Candidates find the complex content of IB Economics difficult to adapt to and keep up with, as the assessment components and criteria are much closer to university material than they are to Economics studied in MYP, IGCSE, and other early secondary school programmes.

Our IB Economics tutors will create a customised lesson plan based on the students’ weaknesses and will help simplify the complex concepts taught throughout the course so that they can build a solid conceptual understanding in Economics.

Candidates usually take IB Economics as it is a prerequisite course for undergraduate degrees like PPE or Economics and because it provides a useful foundation for degrees such as Politics and Business. Students will find that, especially if a 7 in IB Economics is required for university admission, it is invaluable to have support from an IB Economics tutor throughout the course.  It is perfectly reasonable to want the best IB Economics tutor for the best chances of earning top marks in the IB Economics exams and assessments. 

BartyED’s tutors are very familiar with the struggles faced by IB Economics students. Our team of highly-qualified and engaging tutors are experienced in helping candidates navigate these issues through one-on-one IB Economics interventions tailored to each candidate’s specific needs.
