    Is Ngo and sons good for english and math?

    I would only attend for maths if you go to selective. The non selective line is not worth the discrimination :)

    I don't feel like I am learning anything from my English tutoring...

    Okay this makes it a lot more clearer thank you! Overall I'll just ask the tutor why she changed what she did. If I don't like it after that, I'll speak up and to make sure that I speak up about things that are actually wrong with my essays, I'll spend the holidays properly learning everything...

    I don't feel like I am learning anything from my English tutoring...

    This does seem like a valid idea, however, my parents are fed up with me constantly changing tutoring centres, they think something is wrong with me and not the services other people provide (I'm starting to think so too). Is there a way that I can keep my tutor but manage to learn how to write...

    I don't feel like I am learning anything from my English tutoring...

    Hello, Halfway through this year I decided to get English tutoring because my marks were not going higher than a B (at a non selective school) for English Advanced. After more than 10 weeks of tutoring, I have noticed that I haven't actually improved in English. My tutor reads my drafts and...

    Language continuers or beginners

    Hello, Just wanted to finished this thread for anyone thinking about doing Beginners or Continuers Japanese. I chose Continuers Japanese in the end and I can tell you that it wasn't easy for the first 6 weeks. I literally felt like the most stupid person in the grade and most of the grammar did...

    Language continuers or beginners

    I was planning to do Japanese Continuers from the NSW School of Languages not my school because they don’t even offer it. My school offers Japanese Beginners but it usually never runs and that’s the main reason why I wanted to do Jap. Continuers because it will definitely run at NSL but I’ll do...

    Language continuers or beginners

    Thank you for talking to me about this! I feel like what you are saying makes a lot of sense and it seems to be a wiser choice to do Japanese beginners instead of continuers considering that I’ll most probably find it easier to do well.

    Language continuers or beginners

    I didn’t do Korean as a elective I’ve just studied Korean regularly for three years to the point that I’m close to an intermediate level. Plus I love learning Korean and think continuers would allow me to better understand the language. The thing with Japanese is that it’s not about me falling...

    Language continuers or beginners

    Well, I do already know how to write hiragana and katakana with a few kanji so I can write as good as Year 1s in Japan...I’ve also finished a few textbooks so I think I could do well... I guess it’s a smart idea to not compare it’s just that since hsc is all about ranking I got a little confused...

    But would you say it would put me to a disadvantage compared to kids who have studied Japanese longer than me?

    Language continuers or beginners

    Hello I’m currently in Year 10 and for my subject selections, I’m highly unsure between whether I should do Japanese beginners or continuers... I’ve already decided on Korean continuers and so, would Japanese continuers be too much considering I didn’t choose it as my elective in Year 9 or 10 so...
