Course Goals

Improve Academic Performance

In Year 10, students will further improve their English skills and learn to engage with deeper questions and texts. In this course, our tutors assess and fill in the gaps in students' knowledge and offer comprehensive, personalised feedback to excel in their school assessments and exams.

Build Confidence and Resilience

The Year 10 English course is designed to give students all the practice and support they need to prepare them for Year 11 and the HSC. We offer encouraging advice to inspire our students and work with them to improve their work as this empowers them with the confidence to overcome any challenge they face.

Appreciate the Applications of English

Since English is such an abstract subject, students are often unaware of its relevance to the real world and find it difficult to connect with their work. By engaging students with the ideas and logic behind English, we lead them to enjoy opening their minds to different perspectives and expressing themselves in new ways.

Reviews

I have tried other tutoring centers and YGA has been the only one that really understands me on a personal level. The tutors went above and beyond and took time off their own schedule outside of class to chat with me when I was worried about my marks and this really helped with my stress.

I always look forward to coming here after a long day of school. I always feel welcomed and never feel judged for asking any questions or help with my assignments or assessments. Being able to have comfortable friendly chats and still learn with my peers and tutors is a great feeling so i recommend for everyone to try them out!

The communal environment has enhanced the way in which learning takes place and made it more enjoyable to learn from there. I highly recommend this place for everyone who’s not only looking to excel in their studies, but also be part of a community that makes learning a truly positive and fulfilling experience.
