English is ACTUALLY fun!

I think the lessons are really fun and exciting, and English actually seems fun. Story writing and analysis is also really good, with interesting prompts and cool articles. I also have noticed mass improvement in my English tests and my scores getting higher :D

Zeena- Year 9

What if… English could be fun?

Moses uses a fun and effective way of tutoring me and has really helped me improve my English. He improves my creative writing skills and analysing skills through interesting ways. For example, we like to make short stories using ‘what if’ scenarios. 📘

Yuki – Year 9

I used to hate English

English was the subject I hated the most, but now it seems fun. I like making stories and building ‘What If’ stories with Moses. My analysis and comprehension is getting better. He improved my writing skills and I’m proud of the scores I’ve gotten from my tests. ٩(˃̶͈̀௰˂̶͈́)و
