What educators are saying

I found that students were thoroughly challenged with this assignment. This resource helped me explore speeches related to rhetorical devices.
This resource pack provides a great framework for the teacher and is the perfect reference for students. The explanations and examples are relevant and help students grasp the more challenging concepts.
