You Know That Feeling?

I was wondering, does anybody here do English tutoring, and do you find it helps? I’m super inconsistent with my marks (I know I have the potential to do really well my teachers just apparently dislike my approaches to questions) and it doesn’t help that my teacher just…doesn’t give good...

Hey everyone, my name is Michael.
I sat the HSC in 2024 and achieved a perfect ATAR of 99.95. I also came first in state for Music Extension and third in music 2, while also achieving exemplary marks in all my other subjects as an all-round achiever.
My HSC marks are as follows:
97 in English...
Just as the title states.
I got back my first english marks and i got a 60% (the assessment weighs 20%). If i wanted to get a high 80s - low/mid 90s, is that still achievable or should i start aiming for a 70-80 Atar? How high of a mark would i need in the rest of my assessments? im so confused...
My guide to getting a high mark in Standard English

Hi all,
Looking for a good private English tutor for my daughter that takes students in junior years (year 9). A James Ruse alumni would be nice so that they understand the assignments and what needs to be done to get good marks but that is not compulsory. Additionally, I would prefer those...
hi! I am currently in year 11 (I just started year 12 content), and I'm doing English advanced. I haven't had the best year, so my marks for everything have been pretty bad. for English prelim, I got 60% 🙄 I haven't gotten my average or rank yet, but I think my past assessments have been around...
I kinda wrote like this for my essays, a little tiny bit worse I'd say for conclusions/3rd body paragraphs.. uhh.. so, would HSC markers be able to decipher this?
Last image is a pic of my 1984 trial essay, which surprisingly got me an 18/20 despite how rushed it was even seen from the...
I am in advanced english atm but I don't know if I can handle the workload or expectations. I don't know if it's worth dropping to standard because it might be too easy/simplified. How should I determine my choice? I have till the end of the week.
Hey guys stressing over english like I'm sure we all are (and if you're not, help us lesser souls out) and was reinterpreting the rubric to polish my essays on. In the Mod A advanced rubric it mentions this:
"As students engage with the texts they consider how [the texts]... shapes their own...
