Narrative · The Door That Was Never Open
Feedback from your tutor
Your opening line is gripping. To reach Band 6, resolve the mystery a little more clearly and vary how your sentences begin.
Purpose-built for the writing paper, from exam-day realism to the kind of feedback that actually moves a mark.
A 30-minute timer and a distraction-free page with no spelling or grammar help - exactly like the real test.
Every piece is scored against the official NSW Selective criteria: Set A for content and style, Set B for mechanics.
A band, per-criterion marks, tutor feedback, and how to approach the topic next time - not just a number.
Narrative, persuasive, informative, discursive, recount, descriptive and reflective - with progress tracked for each.
Detailed feedback comes back while the writing is still fresh, so every practice actually improves the next.
Clear, honest feedback written so a Year 6 student and their parent can act on it together.
Your writing coach
How to structure it
State your position, give your strongest reasons with evidence, then answer the other side before a punchy conclusion. What is your position - for or against?
Guides you - never writes it for you.
