OFFERING Notes/Essays for English Ad/Legal/Modern/History Ext/English Ext 1
Hey everyone! (98.6 ATAR and All Rounder)
Over my HSC I spent a painstakingly long time perfecting my essay technique (having 10 units of essays tends to do that to you) and I have plenty of work to show for it. And here I am, at the end of the cycle (yes it does end)- offering something that I would loved when I was slaving over for hours and hours.
I also offer essay marking or online tutoring if interested.
ENGLISH ADVANCED (94)
English can be treated with an absolute vehemence, but I find that's when people don't understand exactly how to write essays for it. I just think of English as a somewhat obsessive state standardized fandom around literature.

LEGAL STUDIES (97 exam)
This subject can be pretty tough to figure out how to write decent essays in. It took me a while, but it is always so useful to look at how some one else has structured theirs - structure being the key word, and how to balance cases + legislation, and of course, your own judgement.
CRIME
HUMAN RIGHTS:
Short answers, notes and case study - child marriage

Teachers tell you that there is a lot of content in this topic, but as long as you can keep up with current news/themes and focus on ongoing issues such as same sex marriage/adoption/domestic violence etc. you'll be fine.
