Course Goals

Improve Academic Performance

By the end of Year 9, it is important for students to have developed the fundamental English skills for them to continue to achieve great results in senior years. In this course, our tutors assess and fill in the gaps in students' knowledge and offer comprehensive, personalised feedback for them to improve both their analytical and creative writing.

Build Confidence and Resilience

Our Year 9 English course is designed to give students all the practice and support they need to boost their confidence in their own ability. We wholeheartedly encourage them to explore new ideas, fearlessly ask questions and seek feedback to not only achieve academic success, but also grow as a life-long learner.

Appreciate the Applications of English

When it comes to English, students often find themselves lost and confused, without a clear picture of where to go or what to write. Our mentors guide students through the whole journey, including the planning, drafting and editing stages, to establish effective and healthy habits which will help students in school and beyond.

The center is filled with excellent tutors who give students the time they need to consolidate their understanding. They’re always there for me when I need help with assessments or school life in general. If you’re looking for a very positive and fulfilling experience I would not hesitate to recommend this place.

The tutors went above and beyond to organise catch up lessons for 6 weeks straight to make sure I had everything I needed for my assessments. Their personalised classes are very welcoming and really helped a lot with my confidence level.

The environment here is fantastic! Constantly surrounded with people and mentors who can relate with the struggle makes it much easier for me to come to them with any issues I have. Plus the tutors can easily switch between serious and comfortable friendly chat makes it very enjoyable! Very happy with how small and personalised the classes are.
