Not yet published
Expected 20 Feb 26How the Book Builds These SkillsEarly chapters establish strong understanding texts, reading with purpose, and recognising how comprehension works.
Middle chapters develop exam-critical vocabulary in context, inference, language analysis, tone, writer’s purpose, question types, and different text forms.
Later chapters focus on MCQ elimination strategies, common examiner traps, structured answer techniques, exam-day strategy, and time management.
The final chapters bring everything together into a complete comprehension system that students can apply consistently across passages and exams.
Built-In Guidance That Makes Learning StickThroughout the book, carefully placed guidance supports learning exactly when
Top Tip – strategies that improve accuracy immediately
Caution – warnings about common mistakes and traps
Example – models of evidence-based thinking
Key Insight – the idea that unlocks understanding
These features help students think like examiners without overload.
Who This Book Is ForIdeal
11+ Grammar School Entrance preparation (GL and selective exams)
parents supporting children who read well but score inconsistently
tutors and teachers seeking a structured comprehension framework
Especially effective for students who rush, guess, struggle with inference, or lose marks despite strong reading ability.
Why This Book WorksComprehension is not difficult because answers are hidden.
It is difficult because students are rarely taught how examiners expect them to think.
When that thinking is taught clearly and systematically, comprehension becomes one of the most reliable and highest-scoring areas in English. This book shows students exactly how to achieve that.
