What do teachers say about this resource? (8743)

I think it's a superb resource, completely up to date with the new AQA qualification, it is full of examples for a variety of topics taught at A Level and its structure is logical and it includes revision of grammatical points as well as vocabulary - very impressive!

L Dunato-Davis, Teacher, Examiner and Peer Reviewer

[Would you purchase this resource?]
Absolutely - I'm looking forward to it being published! It's very well thought-through, and could be used for homework tasks which guide students through relevant vocabulary and grammar before testing their translation skills.

A H Watson, German Teacher and Peer Reviewer

Exactly what is needed to help prepare students for the translation element of the exam. [Matches the specification] perfectly. The style is as the exam translations would be in terms of length and points conversion.

S Davidson, German Teacher and Peer Reviewer

What do teachers say about this resource? (8409)

It is a very good resource, which mirrors the AQA spec very well. The texts are well written and in my opinion at an appropriate level, using a lot of the key vocabulary and structures I would expect AS students to know. […] I like that the resource offers more than just translation exercises. I find the vocab and grammar exercises well-structured and easy to follow and understand. This makes the resource very useful both in class as well as for independent study.

H Oberg, Head of German and Peer Reviewer

I thought the resource was very thorough and addressed many of the concerns which students have about translating. Students are guided through the vocabulary for each task and the grammar, which could be used either for revision or preparation for the tasks. I rather wish I had thought of it myself!

K Wright, Teacher and Peer Reviewer

The texts reveal a sound knowledge of German culture. Authentic texts are very appealing to language students. […] The author is very knowledgeable about modern technology and articles like these will interest the younger generation […] I like that the author explains everything step by step. There are lots of subtasks provided. I also like that the author uses very detailed solutions and a very precise mark scheme.
