School exam marks and ranks will naturally improve once a student finds their passion in English and gain competency across the various skills they will be assessed on at school.
OC and Selective Test Preparation
English is a major component of both the Opportunity Class Entrance Exam (OC – done in year 4) and the Selective Schools Entrance Exam (done in year 6). Both exams are major milestones in a primary school student’s early schooling, and can be a significant determinant toward future success.
Private English tutoring for Selective Test
The selective test is done in year 6 and determines year 7 entry into Selective Schools across NSW. Such schools produce the strongest academic performance across NSW in the HSC, and its high achieving graduates go on to enter competitive university courses such as Law, Medicine and Commerce. Success in this early stage of a child’s schooling can be the beginning of a long term habit of strong work ethic and continued academic success.
The Selective Test consists of Reading, Mathematics, and General Ability multiple choice sections, as well as a Writing section. Arguably therefore, English is the most important subject to prepare for as the subject includes Reading and Writing. Our tutors are deeply familiar with the requirements for Selective Test preparation and we can devise an English tutoring program to suit students of all academic backgrounds.

The test consists of multiple choice sections in Reading, Mathematics and General Ability. Our tutors are deeply familiar with the requirements for success at this stage. We can devise a program to suit students of all academic backgrounds, geared towards success at the OC test.
