What do teachers say about this resource? (5713)

This is the best resource I have ever come across. It has everything a student and a teacher would want when doing a region of Spain as a cultural topic. It is comprehensive and detailed and is challenging but so interesting as it contains such a range of activities and links to videos. I loved the links to so many videos which illustrates the reading matter perfectly. I loved the variety of style a of exercises from gap fills, to key words, synonyms, puzzles, essay questions, oral questions, translations and so many more. The content is rich, authentic and up to date and provides a total vision of Pais Vasco from many angles. An outstanding resource!
