The Year 11 English course was highly effective in preparing me for the rigours of Year 12 English. It allowed me to further develop writing skills and work to develop a well-thought-out essay under time constraints.
Tara Anglican School for Girls
English has always been one of my favourite subjects and I truly believe that the energy from my Matrix Year 11 English Advanced teachers have made an engaging and enlightening experience. The abundance of both literacy knowledge and additional contextual appreciation have really boosted my school marks and my personal appreciation for English.

The Matrix English course has greatly improved my English abilities by giving me more opportunities to practise my writing as well as providing feedback as to how I can improve. The lesson content is also presented in an easily understood way to deepen my understanding of literacy concepts.

English at Matrix has really helped me develop my creative writing skills and essay synthesis. I get very valuable and specific feedback that is very impactful and useful in my writing.

The Matrix English courses have helped me better under the more abstract concepts within texts that we study at school, and have helped me understand different styles of writing, such as discursive, much better.

You might think giving up time in your holidays isn’t worth it but the Matrix English Holiday Course was extremely valuable. Not only does it give you great head start for term, the positive learning environment make it enjoyable!
