This book is recommended for learners who have been out of education for a while and are starting their PTLLS.

A good book to accompany the Preparing to Teach book by Ann Gravells. It is essential that students returning to study have support, and this book does help them prepare and organise their work.

This has been recommended as a library purchase.

Fab, fab, fab book - absolutely essential for all PTLLS learners as it will help those learners who have not been to education for a long time. I really enjoyed reading this book and have highlighted sections that will help learners. Another brilliant book.

Clear explanations of the award and next stages after the award. Easy to read and follow.

Good coverage of basic tips to assist learners. Eg. note taking.

Lots of helpful references.

Presenting your PTlls work is clear and directive to negate anxiety related to delivering work.
