| It leads students to develop their own answers to dilemmas and controversial topics. It also enables students to adopt their own stance when discussing a topic. They will be able to defend their own opinions but enrich them with the opinions of others throughout the debates proposed in the guide.L Giraldo, Teacher and Independent Reviewer |
| This resource includes a lot of thinking activities, which is what you need at A-Level. It also works on topical vocabulary acquisition and promotes the use of complex grammar, both in writing and speaking. It is an invaluable collection of activities useful not only to learn about Almodovar and his films, but also to discuss other social and cultural A Level topics.
