How should I study for English?
For National 5 and Higher paper 1 (RUAE) one of the best things that you can do to prepare is to read newspaper articles and opinion pieces from quality newspapers such as The Guardian, The Times, The Scotsman, etc. Install a dictionary app on your phone to look up the meanings of any words you come across that you are unfamiliar with. Practice summarising what you have read and identifying examples of techniques such as word choice, imagery, sentence structure, and so on.
Are there any websites that are useful?
For English, we recommend that you use resources on Bitesize and Scholar websites. Lots of the texts we study have Sparknotes / Shmoop sites with some extra notes and study guides. You can check with your teacher for the text you are studying. Click the buttons below to start your revision.
