Quick answer

Is IB English A: Language and Literature a good fit for high school students in Grades 9-12?

IB English A: Language and Literature is a good fit for students in grades 9-12 who want to learn reading, writing, and argument through questions and context. CIT offers online or in-person lessons in Apgujeong, Gangnam, Seoul, in one-to-one or small-group formats. Students make a scored practice set, error log, and written reasoning. Course completion alone does not guarantee admission, an award, or a score.

Students understand reading, writing, and argument, apply questions and context to unfamiliar problems, and revise failed reasoning. For a college application, the evidence is more than a score: the student can explain how they applied a core idea, why an answer failed, and how they revised it.

What counts as useful evidence?

A scored practice set, error log, and written reasoning.

What should an admissions reader be able to see?

For a college application, the evidence is more than a score: the student can explain how they applied a core idea, why an answer failed, and how they revised it.

Useful evidence may include a sourced argument, comparative analysis, research question, annotated evidence, and a revision that responds to feedback.

A university name, course title, or project source is not admissions evidence by itself. The student must explain what they understood and completed; no course guarantees admission.
