Hello,
I'm looking for some extra resources for my DD with Spanish. She's doing OK but has high expectations of herself so we're looking for some online resources that might help her feel more ontop of the GCSE course.
Any hints are gratefully accepted!
thx

Have you looked at Duolingo?

Or try Seneca online learning - see which suits her best.

BBC Bitesize covers Spanish GCSE, Seneca learning is excellent for GCSE revision too.

I've been learning spanish with weekly online lessons and I think they do gcse revision courses too. Worth a look.

The key elements for MFL GCSE are:
vocab
verbs

So for verbs - is she strong on the three main tenses (present, past future), including regular and irregular verbs and a variety of forms - I, he/she, we, they?
Vocab - key words that are general such as time phrases, adjectives, opinion phrases, and then all the variety of vocab for the different topics.

You don't say what year she is in OP but if she is in yr 11, then completing past papers, looking at mark schemes and seeing where she went wrong is really helpful. This will also give her a sense of what will be on the paper (the structure doesn't vary) - tho make sure you have the correct board (often AQA for MFL but not always).

Sorry not much of this is online but their is IMO no substitute for learning and practice. There are lots of ways to practice vocab - flashcards, games, post it notes around the house, have it on her headphones when she walks to school...

Arrrgh there is no substitute sorry, saw it as I posted!

Oak academy? I believe it's free to use and covers National curriculum.

in the website of Spanish Tutors HK they have free resources available that are quite useful including past exams, listenings etc. Link below:

A great option (if you have budget for it) is to get a Spanish Tutor to come to your home. Spanish Tutors London for example can help you:
