Testimonials

Vocab Express has stood the test of time with our students. We’ve had it for more than two years now but just yesterday one student explained it like this to a new girl to the school: “It’s wicked. You just learn loads!”

Rachel Hawkes, Director of Language College, Comberton Village College

I would just like to say how amazing Vocab Express is and it has really helped me though my French studies and I have learnt a great deal. Daniel Smart, Year 10 Student, King Edward VI School, Lichfield

We have been absolutely delighted with the positive impact this has had on boys' learning and with the way it has raised the profile of Modern Languages within our school. Robin Edmundson, Head of Modern Languages, City of London School

I have never ever seen my Year 11 boys so motivated. Thank you so much from everyone in our department. Maxine Wyatt, Curriculum Leader for MFL, Swavesey Village College

Vocab Express is very popular - the younger ones have even been spending their lunch breaks doing it in the Library, and when you walk down corridors, they're all talking about it! Joanne Iredale, Languages Resources Supervisor, Hampton School

Vocab Express is an excellent online and independent tool to aid student revision; helping them to learn important vocabulary whilst giving instant feedback and monitoring their progress at the same time. Students are motivated and engaged... Mrs Katie Lee, Assistant Headteacher, Director of Specialism, The Willink School

Vocab Express has increased many students' motivation - they often ask for it on arriving in lessons. We always struggle to get our students to learn vocabulary, but with VE, it has become a fun activity. Jon Day, Assistant Headteacher, Director of Specialism, Lord Grey School

We were so impressed by the response of our Year 7 students to the challenges of Vocab Express that we have bought it for everyone, including all partner primary schools! Simple to access and very engaging for all ability levels - a great success!! Jacqueline Mainwaring, Language College Co-ordinator, Henry Box School

Great for cover lessons with the level of control given by in-class testing. Teacher, Lord Grey School

Thank you so much for buying Vocab Express. I used it for revision and the vocab all came up in the exam! Year 11 student, The Downs School

I've been looking for something like this for YEARS! Our pupils are finding Vocab Express really useful, and some even seem to be addicted. We have an ongoing competition with edible prizes for the top three scores in every lesson. Hazel Bailey, Teacher, Bishop's Stortford College
