Revue de presse

I am currently using the History of the 20th Century and the History of the Middle East and Europe in IB. I find them useful´, particularly in reference to papers 2 and 3 in the IB. The references to other material serves a very good end and helps the students develop their ideas. (Phillip Briggs, Head of History, The British School of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)

Thanks so much for making IB so enjoyable for our students through your books. I just got their IB History grades and they are higher than ever before. Students used the Oxford Course Book and Skills and Practice. I could clearly see the difference! (Maggie Prieto, Head of Languages, Bachillerato Alexander Bain, Mexico)

All of the Oxford IB Course books are terrific. (Carolyn Hawkins, IB Coordinator, Cookeville High School, USA)

We have adopted most of the Oxford course books for our school. We find them well written, well linked to TOK issues and age appropriate. (Sheta Saha, IB Coordinator, Chatsworth International School, Singapore)
