The educational value of the resource is huge
The structure offers the perfect balance between guided classwork and independent study:

It is clearly structured, full of useful information and ideas to help students to understand L'étranger and I particularly liked the sample essay questions at the end. It is essential for us to have such resources to go along with the new A Levels and it is clear that this resource has been created with the new A Level syllabus in mind.
This resource is very organized and allows students and teachers to go through the book step by step, ensuring a strong understanding of it. My students really appreciate it because they have all information on L'Etranger centralized and this will help their revision - they said it themselves.
Excellent resource especially when there are not many resources available for the new specifications.

I also like the fact that there is a chronological analysis first, so students can go through each chapter, make sure they understand the book before looking at characters, themes. The resource helps students to have a thorough understanding of the book and I am sure that by using this resource students will be well prepared for the exam. As a teacher, it's nice to have the answers as it saves a lot of time if you decide to use this resource as a teaching tool.
