By analysing and comparing texts, you will be able to improve on your ability to interpret the author’s messages and in turn improve your own communication skills.

How will I learn

These include: • Online live classes through Teams. • Tutorial videos created especially for you by your tutor. • Online assignments and exam style questions. • Peer and tutor support. • PowerPoint presentations • Opportunity for one-to-one support with our subject specialist progress coach • Online quizzes to check your knowledge.
