Tam Connors-Sadek, Director of Studies, The University of Sheffield
“The combination of accessible topics, regardless of a student intended academic subject, and the Skills & Strategies, have proven extremely beneficial to students in developing their reading skills. In addition, whilst including the more traditional post reading activities, Making Connections goes beyond this to include tasks that require deeper probing as well as critical thinking.”
