11+ English Revision Guide: For 11+, pre-test and independent school exams including CEM, GL and ISEB

Erika Cross has worked as Head of English in prep schools for the past fourteen years, although she originally trained as a senior school English teacher. She believes that children learn best when they are taught by someone with a passion for their subject, and Erika certainly brings that passion to teaching English. Her enthusiasm can be contagious, and the children she teaches always have lots of fun, along with learning a great deal.During her teaching career, Erika has authored a number of titles but most recently she has co-written the new 11+ English Revision Guide for Galore Park. When she is not working, she loves to read, especially children's literature. Victoria Burrill is Head of English at Newton Prep school in Battersea, London. She teaches Years 5 to 8, preparing children for pre-tests and entrance exams for London Day Schools at both 11+ and 13+ and Common Entrance at 13+. She has written for both Rising Stars and Galore Park for the last four years and her catalogue includes the English for the More Able series, 11+ Practice Papers and Revision Guide and the Galore Park English textbook series for Years 3 to 6. Her particular passion is to instil a love of literature in her students and she plans her lessons around whole novels, using them to teach key skills and to evoke a love of a good story.
