What our HSC English Students Think About Learnmate

Frequently asked questions

Yes — Extension 1 is one of the most challenging English subjects in the HSC. It demands advanced literary analysis, a strong grasp of genre conventions, and originality in both critical and creative writing.

Tutors help break down complex texts and literary theory, clarify key ideas, and build your ability to analyse and compare texts from a genre-specific lens — a key skill in Module A.

Yes — tutoring improves how you plan and structure responses, manage time under pressure, and develop original insights. Many students see significant improvements in their writing and exam confidence.

Absolutely. Tutors guide you through developing extended compositions, refining creative voice and structure, and writing strong, original critical responses for assessments and exams

Extension 1 focuses on genre study, critical analysis, and imaginative responses. Extension 2 involves creating a Major Work in a form of your choice, accompanied by a reflection statement. Many students take both in Year 12.
