What do teachers say about this resource? (6957)

Overall I think that this is an excellent resource for supporting both students and teachers with this new aspect of the GCSE. It covers a range of literary styles and includes various potential exam question styles. The resource is not only a set of practice questions but guides students well in the development of their general reading skills.

S Joynes, Teacher and Peer Reviewer

This is a great resource with some excellent texts and exercises. I will most definitely be using this resource! I particularly like the variety of exercises and the little support boxes. They guide students through tackling literary texts and provide useful tips on how to work around passages where unfamiliar words might occur.

F Reichmann, German and Peer Reviewer

I particularly like the text choices. They are very nice indeed. I have enjoyed reading them and I can see why the author of this resource has chosen them. I like the fact that the students can improve their grammar knowledge as well as their vocabulary. I also like how the activities are scaffolded.
