High School -
English
The Board of Studies
maintains the belief that the curriculum is set out with the
intention to ‘prepare
all students for effective, responsible participation in
their society’.
At Alpha Omega Education
we tend to agree that an obvious and meaningful outcome of
learning High School English, should be that students become
more confident with interacting with the people and
environment around them.
How does High School English Evolve from Primary English?
In adherence with the
Board Of Studies syllabus or curriculum and our own high
educational standards, High School English at Alpha Omega
expands from the elementary areas of literacy including
reading, comprehending, listening, and writing to the more
advanced, interpretive, analytical, imaginative and
expressive elements of English.
Alpha’s Role in Expanding English Horizons
The English department at
Alpha Omega Education take the view that English is about
the rich variety of text, and the exciting exploration of
language and context.
Our High School English
Programmes are divided into two distinct areas of study:
1. Written English
This involves the
understanding of text structure, word choice, punctuation
and imagery.
2. Spoken English
This involves the
manipulation of pitch, volume and tone to evoke emotion or
create imagery, and the mastering of oration through rhythm,
length of sentences, word choice and non-verbal aids (e.g.
hand gestures).
Both areas directly or
indirectly involve critical thinking, drawing upon
representations, deriving meaning, sharing and justifying
ideas, and communicating; all of which are elements of
everyday societal life.
Paying Attention to Detail: Helping Individuals
Like with all of our
tutoring, our High School English tutoring is designed to
assist students who have difficulty or advance those who are
otherwise competent.
Our courses start with an
assessment of student competencies, allowing for special and
often individualised attention for students across their
areas of need or concern.
