First lesson: ask for a copy of their latest school report, latest assessment/exam or just a peek at their exercise book. That way you get a good idea of what level the student is at, and you can use it as a comparison in 6 mths time to see if they have improved or not. Maths: just work with...

It's probably easiest to come up with ideas by considering an essay question (have a look at some past HSC ones or practise questions). Essentially, you can talk about the sources of belonging (family, friendship, romantic love, affinity with environment), the causes of alienation (oppression...

You should have at least 2 related texts for the Area of Study (Belonging). Module A ESL: two related texts to be safe Module B ESL: no related texts necessary

Some people memorise by writing, others by reading it over and over again. Personally, I read it out loud to myself. As with slyhunter, I also just remembered key points (ie. topic sentences or phrases), quotes, techniques - and then reassembled it all into an essay in the exams. Depending on...

I tutored TGG and EGG for the first time last year and I really enjoyed it. TGG is frustrating to read, because the characters were so unlikeable, but you can really fall in love with Fitzgerald's language.

I'm finding some schools are teaching Texts and Contexts from Year 10 already... Anyway, your approach sounds good and similar to what I tell my tutoring students to do. Structure your paragraphs so they go: Topic sentence - explain common idea dealt with in both texts Text 1 - explain how...

Yeah 900-1000 is about right. Really, it depends on your creative writing style - whether it's laden with description or sparse. My creative was short sentences, short paragraphs, snippets of description, so in the end - I didn't have to write much (word length wise) to get a substantial...

You could structure an integrated response like this: 1. Intro – thesis about belonging, respond to question, state texts 2. Idea 1 about belonging 1. Core text 2. Related 3. Idea 2 about belonging 1. Core text 2. Related 4. Conclusion Integrate...

I went and it's good to meet people, so when uni starts, at least you know faces and names, and have someone to sit with! The group of people that I met at Law camp are pretty much the friends who I've kept throughout the 5 years of uni.

Easy Does it by Bruce Dawe I have to be careful with my boy When he says tree it comes out hazy very green and friendly and before I've got the meaning straight he's up there laughing in it, or working on the word for aeroplane which is also a little above his head so that he has to stand...

Well it really depends on the scope of your investigation - you would divide up your information and name the subheadings accordingly. You may also include a section on Methodology to explain how you researched that information. And of course include a Bibliography.

Can you be more specific about what you don't understand?

No, you won't be marked down. When the criteria says "evidence from the texts" - that just means quotes, techniques, examples. You don't need page references etc in your speech (or really your transcript either). In your speech (as you're saying it), you should indicate to the audience when...
