I had Mr. Cogan for IB English and the majority of his assignments are creative writing, where you write a story based on anything you like (unless specified) with little to no restrictions. I suggest just getting these done as soon as possible since he does not give a lot of homework, meaning every homework he does give weighs a lot. For our class, we also had to read poems for the first semester and plays in the second. For the poems, I suggest just writing EVERYTHING he says. Annotate your poems which will help you prepare for IO (Individual Oral). For the play, he will actually show the play in the class, it will be very dry but focus on his side comments since it's more helpful.
