The IB or the International Baccalaureate is a very rigorous academically challenging, balanced program. The education program is designed to prepare the students for success at university and life beyond. This institute develops intercultural understanding, open-mindedness, and the attitude which is necessary to respect and evaluate a range of viewpoints.
Approaches to teaching and learning (ATL) are deliberate strategies, skills, attitudes and the breadth and depth of knowledge are some very important attributes one should take into consideration. The IB Ace Academy institute at Mumbai has set a benchmark for the other institutes as the students who have completed training from here have flourished like anything and we can see best results coming out every year. History is a very vast subject that encompasses various reformations, civilizations, battles, world wars, various revolutionary movements, and several other things. It is the systematic narrative of past events relating to a particular country or people of a particular country.
The world history course is based on a very comparative and multi-perspective approach. It involves the study of various political, economic, social, and cultural agendas. These agendas provide a balance of structure and flexibility.
The IB tutors emphasize the importance of encouraging the students to think historically, develop historical skills and develop gaining factual knowledge.
The expert faculty help the students develop an understanding of multiple interpretations. The challenging and demanding critical exploration of the past helps one understand the subject in a better manner. Achieving a score of 7 is not going to be an easy feat. Under the guidance of the expert faculty, one can work their way up in the subject!
The history course is fragmented into two different categories-
Higher Level
Standard Level
It is important to take a look at the paper-wise and the level-wise breakdown of the subject.
Focus on the main concepts and memorize the datesHistory is all about events and dates. Global history is a very extensive topic. Studying the diversity of the human experience makes us appreciate the cultures, ideas, and a lot of other things. The IB tutors train the students in such a way that they remember the dates, events very well. The teachers also encourage the students to write down the dates. When you write down the dates make mind maps to relate them to the event that happened on that date. You can also make flashcards to remember the information. It is also important to make notes, study guides, timelines to increase your shot at passing the test.
Saying information out loud as your read the notes
We need to get accustomed to the terminologies in history. The IB tutors take less than two tuition sessions per week to finish the topic. After they finish the topic they make every student understand and learn the basic definitions in the classroom itself. Saying, seeing, and hearing things will help your brain memorize the information easily. It is important to read your textbook as loud as possible while you study. Mnemonics are used to memorize all the facts. It is a quick way to remember the facts. The course syllabus is the sheet of paper that is used to list each session’s topic.
The IB History tutors help you outline all the important concepts.
Looking at concepts through the past papers
The student can make a big mistake of studying all the chapters individually and not focusing on the value of the papers which were involved in the past. The IB examiners require unique tailor-made questions. These questions are made every year without any repetitions.

The Expert faculty has an idea of the paper structure. Formulating the techniques for better time management could be a difficult task sometimes.
