The Reading List ✔️

Reading makes a person. This axiom holds true for many places, not least of which are your IGCSEs. 

You are strongly advised to read around as much as possible by not limiting yourself to your anthology. Doing so would ensure that you improve your vocabulary, enhance your understanding of grammar and linguistic structure, and exalt the quality of your written work.

Following is a list of websites which feature high-quality content in English. The list will be continuously updated as and when the Blog Team finds useful resources, so make sure you check back here from time to time!

Happy reading!
