Course Goals

Improve Academic Performance

Learning how to think and communicate creatively and analytically will become a difficult task in senior school if a strong foundation is not built in Year 7. As a result, our mentors are responsible in providing our students with the necessary skills to achieve their desired marks in English.

Build Confidence and Resilience

From Year 7, it is vital for students to adopt an open and curious mindset to get the most out of English and their time in high school. In our Year 7 English course, YGA tutors inspire and motivate students to strive for continuous improvement, and ensure that students know that they are supported as they learn.

Appreciate the Application of English

By connecting with students in their early days of high school, we lead them to appreciate English as a subject in which they learn to express themselves and explore their place in the world. While helping them develop creative and critical thinking skills, we nurture their love for learning which will shape their future in school and beyond.

Reviews

I was very behind on my class work before I came to YGA. But since I joined for physics, english advanced and maths advanced, I quickly caught up with all my class work and now we’re already learning ahead. Highly recommend them for everyone who’s looking for not only improving your marks, but also your confidence level.

I’ve been with YGA since I was in year 10 and I love every minute there! Maths extension 1 class is filled with mentors who personally understand your strengths and weaknesses and teach the best way to cater for them. They’re also very responsive and always there to support us even outside the classroom.

The tutors in YGA makes everyone feel like a family. They’re always very welcoming and make the learning environment very enjoyable to come to every week! They are very responsive outside of class and always happy to help with anything we struggle with.
