Glossary
Index
`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.'
