What do teachers say about this resource? (10057)
I think that this resource is a comprehensive and easy to follow guide for the chosen text. It is an excellent resource that can be used by both teachers and students. I think it is really good at breaking down the text – something that as a teacher I sometime focus too much on the big picture and forget some more subtle points that this resource would address
Brilliant and very concise. Easy to access and provides valuable insight to the text with supporting questions and activities throughout... It fits the syllabus we follow and explains everything really well... I can plan my lessons and provide information to students with ease....
It follows a chronological order with details for each individual chapter... With this resource [teachers] will not need to plan anything!
