A step-by-step guide to learning by questionsLast week, I posted a video about accessing thousands of questions through Learning by Questions for free. If you sign up for a free account, you also get a 60 day trial of the paid features which I explore in this video. It costs £200 a year (I think) but as you can see from this video, if used effectively, is well worth the money.
LBQ have also given me 200 £25 vouchers to use to buy books of their questions sets for each year group, more info here. Click the picture to access the video if you have subscribed. Click here if you need to subscribe on Facebook. |
