Excellent resource, especially good for exam practice and revision. These are valuable resources throughout the GCSE course. Are an easy way to consolidate topics studied in class. Worth every penny!
This is a fantastic, up to date resource that is immediately accessible and very easy to use; it includes ideas on how to incorporate the reading passages into a series of learning activities and includes full marking schemes.
I think that this is a brilliant resource and I love the fact that it is quite quirky using the letters of the alphabet for the different text stimuli.
The articles are all very interesting and on a good range of topics. The questions are similar to those on exam papers which makes using the texts really worthwhile, so all in all this is an excellent resource.
Offers authentic material to supplement learning German through a variety of texts, which vary in style and difficulty.
