Review is a conversation between a teacher and a student.

Many IB teachers suffer from relationships with their students. This is because a sufficient trust relationship has not yet been formed between the two. When a trust is established, the effect of education also increases, but it isn't easy.

I've also had those struggles in the first few years, and because of that, the parts I care about the most are below.

1) Make the class easy and fun.

2) Teaching students meaningful knowledge.

3) Marking the assignments meticulously.

In the past, I was a IBDP Korean A examiner for a while. (Thankfully, not anymore.) Based on that experience, I thoroughly mark according to the IB's criteria. And carefully record the strengths and weaknesses of the student, and give feedback with a clear basis, especially on the part where the student was deducted.

When I mark a paper 2 exam result, it takes about 60 minutes. I carefully check and comment on spelling, spacing, register, vocabulary, sentence structure, validity of composition, depth of analysis, and development of logic.

To do this, I first scan the student's answer sheets and type it in MS words. This way, I can add more comments. This is a very cumbersome process, but it is also a way to reduce unnecessary misunderstandings. (Essentially, teachers are people who provide services to students.) This makes students feel that they are being managed in detail and trust my marking.

However, some students check my reviews meticulously, while others rarely check them. I make it clear that the difference will appear in the next assignment. In other words, state that students' current choices will be reflected in future results.

As a researcher, I think that real communication between students and teachers is achieved through assignments and reviews. And through this, a true trust can be established between the two.
