The language of success (NPF2)
Improving grades at GCSE

Dave Carter

Written with the requirements of the latest GCSE specifications in mind, this indispensable book provides guidance on:

• helping students acquire the vocabulary they will need in the exam and preparing them to cope when they meet an unknown word;
• encouraging students to use the grammar and structures they know to best effect in the exam;
• preparing students for each of the four skills, including coursework, with examples and sample answers;
• good exam practice, including tips on exam techniques for students, and for teachers in the Speaking test.

It is intended for all MFL teachers, with students at all levels from A* to G. It does not assume that all students are highly motivated, nor that teachers have infinite amounts of time, but concentrates on a down-to-earth and realistic approach to improving GCSE success.
