How to English?
Hi, I'm a 17 year old guy who's doing really well at school but I've failed every English assignment and wont be able to get into university without passing the subject.
I can write reports on other things like Computer Science and Chemistry fine but when it comes down to relating things to the world, authors purpose and expressing my feelings I just freeze. I just end up sitting at my table for 10 hours each session and my brain only produced 2 sentences (not exaggerating).
I do go for extra tutoring and they help A LOT but only when I'm with them.
Its really starting to piss me off because that's time that I can't use studying for other subjects and I end up failing anyway. I can't really get feedback on my work either because there's nothing to give feedback on...

That's because you don't have enough information about those subjects to even give you a headstart. Read Wikipedia articles about the subject you're going to write, watch YouTube videos and if you like to live dangerous join discussion groups based around that specific subjects! Whether they might be here on Reddit or internet forums.
When you know something well you'll express it perfectly.
