I’m weak in General Paper, will this help with my vocabulary & grammar?
What you can expect from this book is techniques to write your essay, brainstorming ideas for exam topics among other valuable tips to help you ace your paper! The only aspect of grammar and vocabulary is in our hand-picked essays by ex-laureates where we’ve done a makeover of their essays before, and after. So, if you’re looking for solely grammar and vocabulary this may not be the right fit for you!
We believe the technique to write a General paper is far more valuable than just having a good set of grammar and vocabulary. Our step-by-step guide comes packed with how to brainstorm for your exam question, and the right technique to write your essay among other valuable nuggets of wisdom from someone who was in the same situation as you years ago!

Writing is a technique that once mastered can serve you value for a lifetime! Oftentimes, it becomes difficult to balance school life with extracurricular activities and tuitions – and we totally understand that (we too were once of your age 😉).

This book will serve you for life. We can assure you of that.
