WONDERFUL WORDS!

“Elevate your lexis. Make your diction more dexterous. Make your English exemplary!”

Do you know the main reason for 11+ failure?

Do you know what makes a successful English student?

VOCABULARY!

And I am a living, breathing example of the benefits of acquiring excellent vocabulary.

I have taught English at top schools. I have taught students who gain admission to the best universities in the world. And what do they all have in common?

Fabulous vocabulary!

And you know I know what I am talking about. I am the best advertisement for my own methods. I’ve ‘lived’ my way of learning!

It is about setting an example. It’s about inspiration. It’s about encouraging proactive learning. Light the flame – so it can burn bright!

That is what I have been doing for 34 years. And that is exactly what I am doing here with my ‘Wonderful Words’ Tutorials and my ‘Wonderful Words Workbook’.

Who’s it for?

EVERYONE! EVERYONE WHO WANTS TO IMPROVE THEIR ENGLISH.

“Excellent vocabulary and course. Parents! Buy this for your children! Mrs Glasson is an amazing teacher. Wonderful words, independent learning, reading, writing, comprehension and so much more. Definitely recommended - for exams and for life!”

Cajanath Shuseenthiran

“Fantastic! My son isn't studying for the 11+, he is studying to improve his English. He has done Mrs Glasson's other courses - and loves her teaching. I do too! I am an English graduate, but I have learnt so much from this workbook. She really knows her stuff. Love the book recommendations. There's no one out there like Mrs Glasson. She's exceptional. So intelligent and so enthusiastic. Leaves other tutors standing! ”

Vanessa Gray

“Wonderful vocabulary! We are all learning . We all love this course and look forward to the videos. The workbook is such good value! You can do it in your own time. Enjoyable and fun. Best teacher! Outstanding English teacher.”

Dipika Patel

“Brilliant book and course! As a lawyer I often use words Mrs Glasson taught me as a child. She inspired me to become an independent learner. Watch her videos. Who wouldn't be inspired? I loved English at school because of her. It's been a pleasure to use this workbook with my son. It's got all the old favourites and more. It's great to 'see' you again. You're are a legend, Mrs G!”

Former Student

“Ambitious vocabulary is crucial for conversation and writing in your life, at school and for 11+ exam. My child watched all Mrs Glasson’s videos of 'Wonderful Words’ and definitely improved his English at primary school (his teacher was impressed with his new words!). I bought many books for him to learn new vocabulary for 11+ exam, but often he forgot some of them. Why? Because there were no examples of using them. Mrs Glasson will give examples for every new word ( your child needs to understand in which context they make sense) and the “Wonderful words Workbook “ will help him to revise and practise the spelling in the amazing style of Mrs Glasson. And your child will love it like my child, who already enjoyed her 11+ Revision course. It will be a successful way to learn and inspire your child to use the new vocabulary in every occasion. Mrs Glasson is the best English teacher we have ever known!”

Laliana Gagliardi

“I am Noriko from Tokyo in Japan. I study English for my job and hobby. I watch Mrs Glasson's videos to learn high class British English. I am learning many words. The workbook is good for study because we can keep record. I can read and learn again from the book. I enjoy learning English from this teacher.”

Noriko Kishimoto

“Just want to share our feedback. My son is really enjoying your wonderful words workbook. His feedback. Very informative, mature and very fun (the way you explained). We are new in the 11 plus journey and I'm. glad that I found something that encourages him to learn something and hope it will help him. He said to me never too late to learn!”

Irene and Jayden

“Hello Mrs Glasson, just wanted to let you know that Adi has been working on his vocabulary by following your wonderful words video tutorials and the workbook that goes with it. He is enjoying it. Not only the words you teach but he also looks for the words you use as you speak, Googles their meanings and jots them in his vocabulary book. It's good to see. him taking interest in English. Thanks to you.”

Parent of Adi (Year 5 student).

“I have been using your vocabulary course with the workbook. It's brilliant!”

Wrong Err

“Mrs Glasson is a brilliant teacher. Before we tried her course, I wasted money on other tutor's courses. They are not qualified and do not teach like Mrs Glasson. She has worked in grammar schools and many parents recommend her. I am so glad we found her. My son also is studying her 11+ Revision Course. He now loves English and his teachers have commented on how his vocabulary and writing and comprehension have improved. We are lucky to have such an English teacher. Recommended to everyone! ”
