What do teachers say about this resource? (6475)
I particularly liked the inclusion of critics’ views and a range of contexts – the two elements students find most challenging. An excellent revision tool as it deals with the text chronologically and analyses every scene. It also deals with the play as a whole text, considering themes, characters, motifs and issues arising out of the reading of the play... Layout and presentation are clear and user friendly... The resource skillfully matches the new specification as it adheres to all relevant assessment objectives... What makes this resource invaluable is that it focuses on the B text when nearly all published resources on the market deal with the A text.
