Year 12 Accelerated English Tutorials

Overview

Accelerated English Group

Our Year 12 Accelerated English Groups are designed to prepare the students in advance for the deeper analysis and interpretation of complex texts that are required from the HSC and IB English course while aiding students with the main modules and prescribed texts. Students understand the principle for effective writing and polish critical skills for analysing texts, enabling them to refine their craft with finesse. The accelerated classes further accustom students to the examination and assessments so that they can reach their peak academic results. Our Accelerated English Group consists of 2 hour weekly tutorials, and support for weighted school English assessments and examinations.

Weekly Tutorial

What's in The Tutorials?

Our Year 12 English Courses are weekly two-hour Accelerated English Tutorials. In our Accelerated English Group, students will:

  • write exceptional analytical essays with advanced expressions, sophisticated analysis and clarity;
  • analyse senior advanced texts and engage critically with textual studies;
  • generate creative, complex and unique ideas; and
  • effectively use a wide range of advanced forms and features, and language techniques in creative writing, discursive writing and persuasive writing.

The accelerated classes further accustom students to the year 12 examination and assessments so that they can become familiarised with the analytical writing style required to excel in English.

Support During Assessment Periods

Students can seek help from tutors with their school assignments or upcoming in class exams outside of tutorials, and the tutors give students targeted feedback and advice for their written drafts to help them achieve their best. Further, in preparation for major examinations, our lessons are tailored so that students can practise specific writing and reading skills for tests in class under timed conditions. Whatever questions and uncertainties students have about their upcoming exams, the experienced tutors can guide them through, step by step, and foster greater confidence for their exams. 

Our Students get the best of both worlds; specific written practice and learning during class, and individual assessment preparation help outside of class.

A Detailed Look into Our Course

Accelerated Learning

Our classes extend beyond the set curriculum for year 12, as the vast difference between good and great writing is hidden in the student’s ability to make their unique ideas stand out and fashion it in a logical and cohesive form. In our Accelerated English Groups, students meticulously learn how to craft an effective structure with advanced expressions for their analytical essay writing, imaginative, persuasive and discursive writings.

We teach not only the ‘what’, but the ‘why’ and ‘how’ so that students will be equipped with not just an understanding of concepts and ideas, but the confidence to write effectively. Taking a step further to analyse meanings in texts that may have not been spotted before, we broaden the platform in which students can write freely and articulate their own unique voice.

Superb Textual Analysis

Students study a variety of texts from an array of literary genres and media. Going beyond the analysis skills they have learnt at school, our specialist tutors provide students with the best mastery of textual analysis in all areas of literature.

Main Focus of Textual Analysis
  • identifying, evaluating and critiquing advanced language techniques;
  • understanding and applying language forms and features; and
  • critically thinking and crafting a deep understanding of the authors’ ideas and messages in the text, linking back to the contextual concerns of texts.
Overview Of Skills
  • Extensive written practice, writing a variety of text types and genres.
  • Learn to improve structure, strengthen arguments and improve clarity in writing with regular feedback.
  • Develop exam strategies and time pressured practice under exam conditions.
  • Refine writing techniques, planning and editing skills.

Sophisticated Analytical Writing and Advanced Exam Skills

Students will now build on fundamental writing skills, ensuring that students have the confidence to write and analyse effectively on the spot. We steer away from traditional methods of honing an essay and memorising to merely adapt, especially as schools are moving away from hand in assessment to more specific, unseen written components in year 12. A major issue is that students don’t write as frequently under timed conditions as they ought to at school. This is like going to swimming lessons in preparation for a race and intellectualising swimming, without actually jumping into the pool and doing the most important thing; to swim. While theoretical work is powerful and important, it must be measured with actual writing. It’s hard work – we know. We pay attention to even the minor details that cumulatively have a significant impact. Ultimately, it’s not just about whether a student can write well, but whether they can write well under time pressure. Our Accelerated English Groups are challenging, but we do what’s difficult so that thinking, articulating and writing becomes easy.
Students in preparation are taught to: 
  • write complex expressions with clarity within a limited amount of time;
  • extrapolate large texts for effective adaptation during on-the-spot writing;
  • analyse difficult unseen extract or image on the spot;
  • address and adapt to unseen questions and writing stimulus;
  • think clearly in a high pressure environment; 
  • speed write while thinking simultaneously; and 
  • build legible handwriting skills for markers to read (this is more important than students would think).
