What do teachers have to say about this resource? (8541)

'Love it! In the past i've used authentic German resources / Abitur level German workbooks on it and bpb German film association but have found sometimes that the language is too complicated for A level students as it's been designed for natives.This resource solves that problem completely.' S Lemmetyinen, MFL Teacher and Independent Reviewer.

‘The resource offers a very detailed analysis of the film, encompassing a wide range of preparatory exercises that facilitate essay writing, as well as practising key examination skills, such as translating into and out of the target language.’ J Turner, German Teacher and Ind. Reviewer

'I think it's great – very detailed and logically structured with lots of tasks and activities and clear progression. It can be used as a main resource for teaching the film which is extremely beneficial to anyone – be it an NQT or someone teaching A level for the first time, or a teacher who needs this resource to complement any other resources they might already have.' L Dunato-Davis, German Teacher, Examiner and Ind. Reviewer
