What do teachers have to say about this resource? (4651)
"A very good guide and study support for pupils and teachers. Themes and activities are very interesting and adhere to the specifications of the exam board." V. Kondou, English Teacher and Ind. Reviewer
"This is a comprehensive teaching and revision pack for any GCSE student, regardless of which exam board is used by the centre. The pack is divided up into useful notes on plot, themes and characters, followed by more advanced learning skills such as analysis of the writer's techniques, and finally, exam-style questions and commentaries. It allows pupils to engage fully with Lee's style, as well as the aims of the novel." M. Render, English Teacher and Ind. Reviewer
"Tasks that cover all chapters, ranging from notes to essays to discussions of style, narrator and interpretation, are effective and wide-ranging. Some will really push the MAT pupils." S. Owen, English Teacher and Ind. Reviewer
