[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child will be going to NCS as a 9th grader and I want her to hit the ground running and get an A in English. I know that NCS English is brutally hard, but getting A's is of paramount importance. Can someone give us advice on how to prepare for NCS English essays? What resources do you find helpful for your daughter? What do the teachers usually look for when grading the essays?[/quote] You've mistaken-Getting a good education is of paramount importance, not straight As. If you just want straight As, hire a special tutor who will write all assignments and essays for her (as some uber rich parents would do). Then the outcome is not going to be any good, your daughter still don't know how to write. The process from a B- to B+ to an A is what the learning process is about. A kid's academic growth is embedded in that process, even if they never get As, even if they don't get in ivy league schools. [/quote] There's no way a tutor such as this would work as there are many in-class writings. [/quote]
