IB research work: rigorous, ethical guidance.

Ethical guidance for the Internal Assessment, Extended Essay and TOK in any subject: topic choice, structure, methodology and formal review.

  • IB students who need to steer their IA in any subject.
  • Students with the Extended Essay or TOK still to structure.
  • Families seeking ethical, academic guidance.

What we work on

  • Choosing and narrowing the topic and research question.
  • Structure, methodology, sources and subject-specific depth.

From idea to a well-built piece of work.

Our support always respects the student's authorship and the IB's criteria.

  1. Initial conversation about interests, level and topic viability.
  2. Defining a researchable question.
  3. Plan for structure, methodology and sources.
  4. Indicative review of clarity and coherence.
  5. Preparation of the student's next steps and improvements.
