In preparation for the paper 2 in the Pearson Edexcel A Level Chinese qualification, I have designed this book to guide students and teachers to analyse the two designated chapters of “Memories of Peking” 《城南旧事》- 《惠安馆》、《爸爸的花儿落了》 - in depth, including: significant plots and quotes/character/theme/language analysis. There are essay practise questions as well.
Note that this resource does not contain the novel itself, only important extracts from the novel.
In this free resource, you can find sample pages from throughout the booklet.
If you enjoy the sample, you can find the full resource here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/-13086559
This resource contains the AQA GCSE core vocabulary and key words from the Edexcel GCSE and the HSK3 curricula, both in PDF and in editable word version. It is designed for students who are using the AQA GCSE curriculum and
taking HSK3 during KS4.
If your school is part of the Mandarin Excellence Programme network, KS4 Mandarin students will be studying the Edexcel GCSE and the HSK3 curricula regardless of what exam board students will eventually take. I created this resource so students and teachers can have the core vocabulary in one place.

I have compiled the AQA past paper questions from 2011 to 2021 by themes. In the PDF files, you will find the exam questions and the mark scheme at the end.
(Please note that the current specification is from 2019).
This resource includes all 3 AQA themes. There are questions with overlapping themes; in that case, I chose the main theme.
Due to copyright issues, I cannot charge this resource. But I did spend a lot of time compiling it, please do credit my labour work and use it sensibly, particularly be careful regarding mocks.
I have compiled the Edexcel past paper questions from 2010 to 2022 by AQA themes. In the PDF files, you will find the exam questions and mark scheme at the back.

I have created 12 sets of “listening, reading and speaking” exam practice for my students. This is a free sample set for you to download.
**If you enjoy the first set, please visit this resource link to find the remaining sets:

Notes for use:
Listening: the questions are similar to that of A level exam paper. In the folder, you will find tracked audio files and the untracked one. Please note that in some of the audio files, I have used to a voice changer so the voice may occasionally sound a little strange.
Reading: the text is much longer than the A level exam paper ones. I designed it that way because the text content itself serves as a modeled extended speaking answer.
Speaking: I have adapted IB questions for these as I personally think IB themes are better! But the structures of answer should serve as a guidance for A level themed questions as well. Delete or adapt as you like!

I designed this end-of-year conversational Chinese speaking assessment for our year 9 students. The rationale is the MEP programme does not have a speaking hurdle test; the students are visiting China before the summer ends; and they will go into GCSE exam preparation in the next year. I want them to study and prove their proficiency in more real-life-like scenarios.
In this resource, you can find the PPT file. Feel free to adapt for your own use.
I have designed a series of 20-subject cross-curricular materials with the Mandarin Chinese subject. We used them in the months leading up to the Chinese New Year and yielded good results.
Each material is just a simple 5-10 minute video with a 3R discussion (Retell, relate, reflect). Here is a free sample of music-Chinese material.
If you are interested, please see my resource titled “20-subject cross-curricular with Chinese”.

This resource can help GCSE Chinese learner to prepare for speaking. Teachers can use them in steps:
Step 1 - teach students to identify question words
Step 2 - students predict possible questions under different topics, e.g. music
Step 3 - use the created mindmap per topic to practise answering these questions with extended response.
