    Portrait of a lady

    I don't mind the module actually, since now my class (all two of us) have finally finished all the texts we're going to do. It's also become a lot easier now cos we're having two lessons a week instead of one and once you've done all the texts it's easier to point out the similarities and pick...

    Portrait of a lady

    :mad1: I absolutely hate this text! It took me two months just too read because I kept falling asleep and now my teacher is telling me I need to read it again to find quotes to do with money, marriage and women. And I can't find any sites that will help. Is anyone else having trouble with this...

    Studying 2 Subjects A Day Vs Studying 4 Subjects Per Day?

    apparently study should be equal to the time you spend in class (according to my economics teacher) so for every hour you do in class you should be doing an hour for the same subject at home, even if that means going over what you did that day to consolidate your knowledge. I prefer doing 3 lots...

    what's the best way to study for English?

    I get an essay question every week from my teacher on all the topics we've done so far. Most of the time the feedback I get is okay and I find it easier to study from my mistakes. But if you have a go at this and it doesnt help, try getting bits of your work marked by another teacher. A fresh...

    2007 Federal Budget

    My economics teacher told my whole class to watch the budget on abc yesterday. I think the main problem with it is the performance based payments to schools and ANOTHER enquiry into climate change. Anyway, this afternoon he shoved every single newspaper he could lay his hands on at me and said i...
