Content

  • This block will introduce IGCSE English Language with Pearson Edexcel, Specification A. It will run over two years, with each block following on from the previous one, giving students who feel ready the opportunity to enter for the exam in June 2026. Please note that this block will have exactly the same content as the recordings from September 2022 and September 2023, but you will have the opportunity to participate in live lessons, rather than recordings.

  • Over the first five lessons, we will introduce the structure of Paper 1, which is compulsory. We will begin to study the ten anthology texts (a PDF of the anthology is available online and will be provided). We will be looking at detail, language, structure and writers’ perspectives and contexts. We will consider how texts can be compared and how we write about them. Responses will be modelled and discussed during the session and tasks will be set for independent completion.

  • IMPORTANT: For live sessions, please register and then use the link in your zoom email. . . . . . . . For recordings and resources, please sign in to the website https://the2poundtuitionhub.com and access your dashboard.

“We have been taking part in the BSL lessons and the other day had great fun finger spelling while shopping. Two of my children have dyslexia with T being more severe, he hates and refuses spellings. Along comes BSL and he’s loving spellings!” ”

Holly, Parent

“Our family are full time travellers and the hub is a life line for us. The children get to see and speak to adults who show a real interest in their learning and their lives. They get to pick lessons that they are interested in and have fun learning something new. The social hub was a real life line for us too. My 3 have made friends and love getting to chat to children and adults daily too. ”

Donna, Parent

“I can’t thank you enough for starting this group Amy. You gave me back my happy (not so little anymore) boy. Thanks to this group he’s realised he’s not the stupid, naughty kid that school made him believe he was. His sister is on school holidays and he’s doing recorded lessons by choice. Xxxx ”
