Cambridge IGCSE™ English as a Second Language Workbook

‘Excellent exercises in the new synonyms section. The simplified approach to understanding synonyms is absolutely wonderful. It also helps in learning different connotations and telling written language apart from colloquial language.

In the speaking advice section, the step-by-step strategies have been judiciously woven with the wonderful activities to help all students think and develop their lines of thought. Special care has been taken to empower the students with the right intonation, stress words and syllables to guide them along varying stages of their structure and articulation of ideas. The suitably designed short exercises help the students hone their speaking skills in the event of online schooling or virtual learning.’

– Mr. Abhinandan Bhattacharya, JBCN International School, Oshiwara, Mumbai
