THE PROBLEM
You Don't Have a French Problem.
You Have a Confidence Problem.
Most IB French students aren't struggling because they lack ability. They're struggling because speaking feels exposing, grammar piles up fast, and expressing real ideas in another language is genuinely hard.
"I freeze the moment I have to speak"
The Individual Oral rewards fluency under pressure — a different skill from knowing the words. We train both.
"Grammar rules never seem to stick"
Tenses, agreement, the subjunctive — we rebuild the patterns underneath so they finally click.
"The Individual Oral terrifies me"
We rehearse the visual-stimulus format until you can think and respond in French with calm.
"The listening paper goes too fast"
We build your ear with graded audio and real exam timing until native pace feels normal.
"Vocabulary doesn't stay in my head"
We replace endless lists with theme-based, spaced practice that actually sticks.
"Jumping from MYP/IGCSE to IB B is a leap"
HL and SL expect real opinion and analysis. We bridge the gap step by step.
WHAT IS IB FRENCH?
IB French, Explained
Without the Jargon
IB French (Language B) is a Group 2 Language Acquisition course for students who already have some French. It develops all four skills — speaking, listening, reading and writing — around five real-world themes, not just grammar drills.
Whether you take it at Higher Level (HL) or Standard Level (SL), the course asks you to communicate real ideas: giving opinions, comparing cultures, and responding to unfamiliar texts and audio with confidence.
Standard Level (SL)
2
written papers
1
individual oral
5
themes
Real communication across five themes — opinions, comparisons and responses to authentic texts and audio.
Higher Level (HL)
2
literary works
5
themes
4
skills
Everything in SL, plus two literary works and greater depth in writing and analysis.
▲
Quick answer for students & parents
IB French B is assessed through two written exams — Paper 1 (writing) and Paper 2 (listening and reading) — plus an Individual Oral. HL covers more depth and includes two literary works. It's widely valued for university entry and bilingual diplomas.
