All homewok assignments have been designed to prepare you for your examinations, and questions are based on examination style questions.
Your homework assignments have been designed to match a specific Pembrokeshire College Online live session, so it is easy to go back and revisit the relevant lesson if you get stuck.
The most important part of your IGCSE English Language course (apart from you) is your dedicated teacher.
All our teachers have extensive academic experience and have taught in the classroom as well as online.
You will be assigned a course teacher when you enrol on your course who will support you for the duration of your studies.
You can contact your teacher via email or messaging with any questions.
