Aimed at anyone who wants to increase their chance of getting a top grade in Italian exams.
Upgrade your Italian offers a thirty-day revision programme that is guaranteed to improve results.
Spending between 30 minutes and an hour each day with this book in the countdown to an exam will help towards a better grade.
This short revision guide focuses on three key strategies for upgrading your exam results:
- Eliminating basic errors and slips of the pen
- Increasing and consolidating your vocabulary
- Improving the style and quality of your Italian
For A-level (or equivalent) students pressed for time this is the best possible aid to revision since it concentrates on identifying the most common basic errors and the most useful vocabularly. It is obvious that it has been written by a first rate teacher who knows all about whetting her students' appetites and then not overfeeding them. The 30 "One day-at-a-time" chapters were just perfect for me. And I am still learning a lot from this, my constant companion. -- Victor Bleaze A reader from Belfast 20060206
