What If Your English Classroom Could Be More IB?

Join us for a practical and inspiring webinar that opens the door to the IB approach to teaching and learning.

Sunday 18 October 2026 via ZOOM Hours: 11:00-13:00

1st presentation: 11:00-12:00 Teaching English IB Style: Skill-Based Vocabulary Building and Reading

Whether you are planning to teach in an IB program, already teaching IB, tutoring IB students, or would simply like to expand your own classroom EFL/ESL toolset in ways you can apply now, this webinar is for you.
Student Agency and Independence Made Simple
We’ll look at practical classroom examples from a variety of sources, to show step by step how to help students break free from “one right answer to memorize” as we encourage and actively train students to think critically and create their own choices, their own interpretations, from their own perspective.

A Sampling of Practical Questions Answered

• What does skill-based vocabulary building look like?
• How do we get students to transition from knowing to actively using language?
• How do we get students who are trained to read for correct answers, to read for meaning and connection?
• How can we use drama to not only teach these IB skills to our students, but help them sound like native speakers?
• How do we find moments in literature that can transform our classroom into a university atmosphere, where each student’s perspective is valued and considered?

2nd presentation: 12:00-13:00 Build an IB Culture That Transforms Learning

Discover how to turn IB principles into everyday practices that ignite curiosity, strengthen agency, and prepare learners to lead with purpose. For IB and non-IB teachers, coordinators and school leaders.
