English Language - AQA

Easy-to-understand homework and revision materials for your GCSE English Language AQA '9-1' studies and exams

Part of English Language

Analysing fiction

Fiction text types - AQA

Fiction is usually made up by the writer. Fiction texts could be based on the writer’s own life experiences or come from their imagination (or be a mixture of the two).

Setting - AQA

The setting of a text includes the location and time when events take place. Setting can play a crucial part in establishing atmosphere and reflecting themes and character within a text.

Themes - AQA

Themes are the main ideas or meaning that run through a text and may be shown directly or indirectly. When working out themes it helps to look closely at the language choice, setting and characters.

Characterisation and narrative voice - AQA

Characterisation is when a writer creates fictional characters for a narrative.

Language and structure - AQA

Language (words and phrases) and structure (the order of ideas in a text) are the methods used by writers to create effective characters, setting, narratives and themes.

Annotating texts - AQA

Annotating is when you add notes or comments to a text; this could also include underlining or circling individual words or phrases.

Responding to a fiction text - AQA

When responding to a fiction text you will be asked to focus on a particular area, picking out specific details or responding more fully with a close analysis.

Sample exam question and answer - AQA

An example of the type of question you might be asked in the exam and how best to approach it.

Analysing non-fiction

Non-fiction text types - AQA

Non-fiction texts come in many types, and have many different purposes. They surround us in everyday life but can also come in more sophisticated forms.

Purpose and audience - AQA

When we talk about the purpose of a text, we are talking about what the writer wants to achieve. Writers use language and structural features to deliberately appeal to their intended audience.

Writers choose words and language features deliberately - to have an effect on their readers. The way they structure parts of a text, eg openings and endings, influences the reader too.

Responding to a non-fiction text - AQA

In the exams, you will demonstrate your understanding of non-fiction text types, their intended audience and purpose, and how the writer has used language and structure.

An example of the type of question you might be asked in an exam and how best to approach it.

Comparing texts

How to compare texts - AQA

Comparing involves directly linking texts through their similarities and differences. It is important to move equally between the two texts, and write about them together, not separately.

Audience, purpose and form - AQA

Establishing audience, purpose and form allows you to choose the most appropriate language, tone and structure.

Writing fiction - AQA

Writing fiction is an opportunity to come up with creative and original ways of using language. You might find inspiration from your own experiences or from your imagination.

Writing non-fiction - AQA

Non-fiction texts are those that deal with facts, opinions and the real world. Many non-fiction texts follow specific conventions of language and structure.

Planning - AQA

It’s always a good idea to plan before you write. You can gather your main ideas, list vocabulary you’d like to include and map out your structure in a way that makes writing easier.

Organising information and ideas - AQA

Well-organised writing is easy to follow and understand. Points follow on from and build upon each other to lead to clear conclusions.

Using language effectively - AQA

Writers use language to create different effects. Learning how to use these will make your writing more engaging.

Vocabulary - AQA

Make your writing interesting and lively by using a wide range of vocabulary. Use specific words to convey your meaning.

Spelling, punctuation and grammar

Spelling - AQA

Learning to spell correctly means you’re more likely to be understood. You can improve your confidence by reading widely and learning to use spelling strategies.

Punctuation - AQA

Using punctuation effectively means that your reader can make sense of your writing. It can also help create dramatic effects in your writing.

Grammar - AQA

Grammar refers to the structure of language and how different words fit together. Knowing something about English grammar rules should help you to construct clear and meaningful sentences.

Spoken language

Speaking and listening - AQA

Effective face-to-face communication means thinking about audience and purpose. Generally this means using Standard English, listening carefully and being polite and co-operative.

Personal presence - AQA

Face-to-face communication includes the words you say and, more importantly, the way you say them. Eye-contact, gesture and posture can all add to the impact of your talk.

Voice - AQA

How you speak affects the meaning of your words. Varying your tone, volume and pace can help engage a listener.

Individual researched presentation - AQA

In an individual researched presentation you will need to give a presentation in front of an audience. You’ll need to research your topic beforehand and may need to answer questions from the audience.

Responding and interacting - AQA

Participating in a group discussion allows you to respond and interact with others. You can share your opinion as well as respond to the opinion of others.

About our live lessons

To help all GCSE-level students continue to engage with English learning, our lessons are taught by Rebecca White, a teacher for over 15 years and currently Head of English at Oriel High School, Crawley. Rebecca has worked with PiXL, GCSE Pod and Pearson, and has been an examiner for both GCSE and A level for over a decade. She is also a part of the National Writing Project's 'Teacher Writes' group, which encourages teachers to get involved in creative writing.

The 45-minute online lessons are suitable for individual students and classes alike, regardless of awarding body. Each lesson focuses on different topics and is tailored to the different stages of English learning. 

See below for each of the lessons and accompanying slides, which we hope will continue to be useful for you in your English teaching:

Do I need to take the Pearson Edexcel English course to join the lessons?

While the online lessons have been developed as free qualification support by the Pearson Edexcel English Team in collaboration with Rebecca White, Head of English at Oriel High School, the content is not specific to any exam board, so anyone studying GCSE English can join and learn.

Who is Rebecca White?

Rebecca White has been a teacher for over fifteen years and is currently Head of English at Oriel High School, Crawley. Rebecca has worked with PiXL, GCSE Pod and Pearson and has been an examiner for both GCSE and A level for over a decade. She is also a part of the National Writing Project's 'Teacher Writes' group, which encourages teachers to get involved in creative writing.

I'm a teacher/parent, how can I get my students/child(ren) to join the lessons?

The easiest way to watch the lessons is to visit Pearson UK Learning on YouTube .

Can I use the lessons as part of homeschooling my child(ren)?

The on-demand lessons are one of many excellent ways to motivate and engage students with GCSE-level English while schools are facing disruption due to COVID-19. While parents may find the lessons a useful way to include English into their child(ren)’s studying, they should follow the advice of their child(ren)’s school.  

Looking for more?

We're also posting a collection of our free GCSE English weekly webinars during school closures, with teacher and trainer Julie Hughes. Julie takes teachers through top tips and the best resources that she's discovered this week and provides a breakout opportunity for the delegates to connect with each other and share ideas.
