Re: hey
Hello jermainef5,
our CXC English exam guide is a pretty thorough breakdown of what is actually in the CXC English A syllabus.
In fact, it is much more, because in addition to the info from the CXC English A syllabus, we provide an amazing amount of resources to help your prepare for and pass the CXC English A exam.
Take a look at it and let us know if you think something that should be there, isn't there. You could help us to improve the guide.
thanks
Thanks, just wanted some extra help but I went through the site and found some great tips, like the section where you had answer a summary question and gave us tips on how to, cause that seems to be my weak point, and I need to pass that English so I can continue my studies.
You guys are doing a great job in helping the Caribbean students and I am going to recommend this site to those who have problem English and math where I work.
thanks again, blessings

Thank you for taking the time to review the resources that we have collected.
And yes, please do recommend us to your co-workers. We intend to keep adding to our collection, so that it becomes bigger and better!
Good luck with your exams too! We hope that you do well and can continue with your studies.
P.S. Did you see the CXC short story award for 2009? It's great for seeing the kinds of short story writing that CXC English markers like. Let us know if you find the stories helpful at all.
