Year 7 Accelerated English Tutorials
Accelerated English Group
Our Accelerated English Groups are designed to help students leap forward by providing a strong holistic basis of high school English, helping them grow confident in analytical expressions, critical thinking and developing an authorial voice which are essential for senior school. 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 7 English Courses are weekly two-hour Accelerated English Tutorials. In our Accelerated English Group, students will:
- analyse various text types and enhance their textual analytical skills;
- expand their vocabulary bank for complex expression;
- think critically and creatively for creative, discursive and persuasive writing; and
- develop effective communication of their unique ideas, arguments and opinions.
These are the skills required to excel in senior high school English. Building these skills from an earlier stage enables students to transition into senior high school English, and become familiarised with the analytical writing style required to excel in English.
Support During Assessment Periods
We recognise that the transition from primary school content to high school can be quite overwhelming.
This is especially because exams and assessments for English are vastly different from primary school. The tutors are here to guide students through the transitions and help with feedback for unfamiliar assessment tasks they receive. Students can come to the tutors with their school English assignments or upcoming in-class exams, and the tutors give students targeted feedback and advice for their written drafts to help them achieve their best.
