Reviews

Complete First Language has core and extended exercises, and also advice for the student on how to plan and write, along with the self-evaluation at the end of each unit which focuses them on exam skills. The texts are varied and interesting and I like the extension texts at the end of each unit. My first impression is that the resources are very useful and user friendly - certainly more so than any of the other text books which I´ve seen for First Language English. - Helen Leathem, Secondary English Teacher- St Anne's School, Spain
This week we received a copy of First Language English for Cambridge IGCSE and it was 'love at first sight!' It was definitely what we need at our school. Thank you very much for your service and the quality of your material! I am going to share it with another head from another school. - Marcela Logioio, Head of English Primary and Director of Studies in Secondary School - Colegio Río
It's very difficult to find enough practice papers to work on for Cambridge IGCSE English Language. This Workbook should help as it provides a wealth of comprehension texts along with structured exercises exploring the more difficult aspects of language. Jane Arredondo covers tricky areas such as register, split infinitives (hooray!) and relative clauses. I've been making my own notes for years; now I can back them up with Arredondo's. - Teacher review of the Workbook, Amazon
