Are you or your student taking GCSE Business Studies in the UK? If so, have a look at this new TTRS Subject which helps students consolidate essential vocabulary and supports classwork, revision, and exams.

Written by a GCSE Business Studies teacher, modules cover key subject areas within the AQA syllabus and offer practice with hard-to-spell words. Complex concepts are broken down and taught in an easy step-by-step manner. Topics include marketing, finances, technology, and exam skills.

Over four levels, there are 124 modules that can be used to reinforce learning. With the TTRS multi-sensory approach, students see words and definitions, hear them read aloud, and type them. This approach can support information transfer to long-term memory and facilitate recall in exam situations.

Are you learning a second language at home or at school? Then the 'Learning a New Language' subject in TTRS is for you! Modules will help you get excited about your new language. Discover the importance of focusing on listening and speaking, learn how not to be afraid of grammar, and why making mistakes is perfectly okay.

With 62 modules, you'll find plenty of vocabulary learning strategies to support you in your studies -- plus images to make learning fun!

Sample module:

I can watch movies and television in my new language.

It is best to put the subtitles on in the language I am learning.

It's okay if I don't know what they are saying.

I can practice listening to my new language and reading it at the same time.

This will teach me which sounds go with which letters.

The 'Learning a New Language' subject was designed specifically to support students with dyslexia who are learning a second or additional language. However, the strategies presented here will benefit any language learner, including students with specific learning differences such as dysgraphia and ADHD.

Hi there,

Learn a series of steps to help you navigate math word problems and practice putting your skills into action in this new subject from TTRS.

Word problems can be confusing! These modules show you how to break them down into steps and then use addition, subtraction, multiplication and/or division to find the answer.

Sample module: There are 10 children at the party. The children share 20 cookies for a snack. How many cookies does each child get? I can use division to find the answer. I know 20 divided by 10 equals 2. Each child gets 2 cookies.

"Math Word Problems" ("Maths Word Problems" for UK English users) features two levels with keywords, strategy instruction, and practice problems. Problems progress in difficulty moving from single-step in Level 1 to more challenging, multi-step problems in Level 2. Images help you visualize the word problem and cue operations and next steps. You will also see, hear and type math keywords to help you build confidence and strengthen your sight-reading skills.
