HSC Advanced English January Lecture Thread

[BellaLN]

Hey, everyone!

This thread has been created for those attending my Advanced English lecture on Wednesday the 20th.

Feel free to post any lingering questions you might have (about the HSC, English, whatever your heart desires!), or write a practice response to the given questions here for feedback by Saturday the 23rd January 11:59 pm.

The sample questions that were on the slides are below; please choose one and write a maximum of approximately 400 words. For the essay questions, this could include an introduction and body paragraph, or multiple body paragraphs!

Enjoy your holidays, good luck for the term ahead, and I hope you enjoy the lecture!
