We hope these guide series help you plan your review/revision work. These are concise and precisely aligned with the updated syllabus. Many teachers have collaborated in making of these guides. If they are useful in your teaching, please consider leaving a review. It would truly be helpful for us to improve on the process of making. You can also explore other guides at the [store](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/samatanicca). Three complete master guides covering every component of the qualification. Component 1 (Reading and Writing – Core), Component 2 (Reading and Writing – Extended), Component 3 (Listening), and Component 4 (Speaking). Buy the bundle and save. What's inside the guides: Reading and Writing (Core & Extended) – Component 1 & 2 (2 hours, 80 marks, 70% of IGCSE): The heaviest-weighted component. Exercise 1 (multiple matching) – how to scan for specific information without reading every word. Exercise 2 (multiple choice) – recognising paraphrasing and synonyms. Exercise 3 (notes/table completion) – selecting exact words from the text, not rewriting. Exercise 4 (summary) – how to identify 5-8 key points and connect them without copying full sentences. Exercise 5 (email/article/report) – format, register, and audience awareness. Exercise 6 (extended writing) – how to develop ideas with reasons and examples, not just lists. Model answers for every exercise type with examiner commentary. Listening – Component 3 (40 minutes, 40 marks, 30% of IGCSE): Authentic or semi-authentic recordings on four topics. Multiple choice, matching, note completion, short-answer questions. How to predict answers before listening. How to identify distractors – Cambridge often puts the word from the recording in the wrong answer. How to spell correctly (markers deduct for spelling errors on answers copied from the recording). Listening protocol: read questions → predict answer type (number, name, time, place) → listen for specific information → check spelling. Speaking – Component 4 (10-15 minutes, 40 marks, separate endorsement): Individual speaking test. Part 1 (2-3 minutes) – general questions about familiar topics (family, school, hobbies). How to give extended answers, not one-word responses. Part 2 (3-4 minutes) – short presentation on a given topic. How to structure: introduction → two or three points → conclusion. How to prepare notes (not full sentences). Part 3 (3-4 minutes) – follow-up discussion. How to express and justify opinions, agree and disagree politely. Sample speaking cards with model answers. Command words decoded for every exercise – Tick, Choose, Match, Complete the notes, Write the letter, Complete the sentences, Answer the questions, Write a word or short phrase. Each with specific guidance for ESL candidates – what the examiner actually expects and what common mistakes they see. Summary writing guide for Exercise 4 – How to select the correct 5-8 points from a passage. How to paraphrase without changing meaning. How to connect points into a single developed paragraph (not bullet points). Bulk copying of whole sentences loses marks. This shows them how to avoid it. Email and article format templates – Email: subject line, salutation (Dear...), opening sentence, body paragraphs (2-3 points), closing sentence, sign-off (Best wishes, Yours sincerely). Article: headline, introduction paragraph, body paragraphs, conclusion. Register guide: formal vs informal vocabulary (request vs ask for, assistance vs help). Example email and article with annotated feedback. Extended writing development guide for Exercise 6 – Many ESL students write lists. This teaches them how to turn a point into a paragraph: state your point → give a reason → add an example → explain the result. PEEL structure for ESL writers. Listening prediction protocol – Before each extract: read the question, underline keywords, predict the type of answer (number? name? date? place? time?), listen for specific information, ignore distractors. Common distractor types explained with examples. Speaking presentation structure – 2-minute presentation that works: introduce your topic (10 seconds) → point 1 with example (30 seconds) → point 2 with example (30 seconds) → optional point 3 (20 seconds) → conclusion (10 seconds). Sample presentation cards with model responses for Part 2. Topic-based vocabulary banks – Family and friends, school and education, work and careers, free time and hobbies, travel and transport, media and technology, health and fitness, environment and pollution. Each with collocations and phrases, not just single words. 4-week revision plans for each component – Daily schedules for reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Timed practice with self-marking using mark schemes. Everything follows the Cambridge 0510 syllabus for 2026–2028. No fluff. Just what earns marks in the exam. Grab the bundle and save – Three complete guides. One price. All the planning done for you. A small ask: If this bundle helps you and your students, please take two minutes to leave a review. It helps other teachers find resources that actually work – and I read every single one.
