GCSE revision course: preview and enrol before the price change!
|
On Thursday, I will be closing the doors to my self-paced Latin GCSE Revision Course, and I wanted to give you a heads-up that when I open them again on October 20, the price will have moved from £97 from £250. Below is a preview of the topics covered. If you go to the page, you can preview a small section on learning adverbs using gestures. It is well worth a look! But this is just a snapshot: the new extended version will include additional content on vocabulary learning and plenty of tools for testing and consolidating. If you have any questions, please reply to this email, and I will get back to you—just as I do within the course! If you are already a member, there is nothing you need to do. New sections will appear that you can access straight away. And remember: as a course member, you get priority when asking for new sections or resources. Use it!

Languages are tools for communication, and people communicate through conversation and storytelling. Although some may love the challenge of solving puzzles, solving puzzles is often...
The last couple of weeks have been very busy getting everyone set up for revision, but I wanted to make sure I share my thoughts about how to succeed at this hectic time. Revision is not something you just sit down and start doing: revision takes planning, commitment and a whole lot of paper!!! Here is why: Without a plan, stress and exhaustion will quickly kick in. Without commitment, it is impossible to reach your goals. If you rely on quizzes and highlighters, the knowledge is going to...
