Moving from GCSE to AS level for the first time in a language - how to do it effectively and more enjoyably.

Working with colleagues at The Sixth Form College, Solihull and Foreign Language Assistants based in the West Midlands we have produced these recordings related to the A-level curriculum. The recordings are natural unscripted dialogues between natives and are transcribed. The FLAs also produced gap fill activities and question exercises to accompany the recordings.

This resource is a series of 6 modules designed to support students making the transition from A-level to degree level studies. Topics covered include Dictionary Skills, Analytical Reading and Writing an Academic Text. Each module is available in Spanish*, French, German and English. English language versions are also available with a voiceover recorded by undergraduates to help guide students through the resources. (*Modules 3 and 5 in Spanish coming soon). Students should first access the English language versions which provide an overview before moving to the foreign language versions for specific activities related to each language. With thanks to Angela Morris, Elisabeth Wielander, Céline Benoit and Jordina Sala-Branchadell who designed and collated the resources. Thanks also goes to our students Philippa Seymour, Fatemah Ackbar Sayed and Rachna Shah who recorded the voiceovers.
