| What do teachers have to say about this resource? (4277) |
|---|
| "My students can now speak or write about the film more confidentially. Thank you for producing such a useful resource." M Mankarious, Teacher of French, St Ambrose College |
| "Well organised, clear, adaptable and excellent grammar exercises in context (subjunctive for instance)... Very good in-depth knowledge of the film and many opportunities to reflect on themes." B Voison, Head of MFL and ZigZag Customer |
| "I was delighted to learn of your publication and when I previewed it online I thought that it was exactly the sort of resource which I needed to deliver this term to A2... I will also be recommending your Amelie resource to a colleague who teaches this film." M Parker, MFL Teacher and ZigZag Customer |
| "I liked the grammar exercises within the context, which helps practise grammar but also help develop a vocabulary bank with words and expressions related to the film." – E Sinot, Head of French at Elliott School and Independent Reviewer |
| "A very comprehensive resource with lesson materials and suggestions for further exploitation." — M Leach, French Teacher and Independent Reviewer |
| "I really enjoyed reading this resource... The fact that it moves beyond the film and looks at themes and also grammatical aspects firmly embeds itself in any scheme of work... The resource suits the cultural study aspect very well, as it is a very good aid to in-depth study of the film. It is good that it embeds the film and cultural study in the whole scheme of work and does not leave it as a 'standalone' unit." — N Jeffery, French Teacher and Independent Reviewer |
