The best textbooks ever!
Platinum Textbooks, Pearson
For me, the Platinum textbooks are exactly what the doctor ordered. Being a Maths, NS, SS, Technology teacher for the past 14 years, I can never think of a better textbook than the platinum textbooks range. Whether it's grade 1-12, Platinum cuts across the board in terms of quality & relevance of content. The textbooks are always 100% relevant to the demands of the curriculum; an indication of professional and high-quality compilers.
The layout of the pages of the textbook is second to none, very engaging and easy to follow. Pictorial diagrams enable visual learners to get engaged in the lesson with little effort. The publishers show unequaled knowledge about the curriculum & how to break down the curriculum into teachable units.

The use of textbooks in my English Lesson
Platinum Textbooks, Pearson
Pearson textbooks are user-friendly and are easily accessible for lesson planning. I can even download them off the Internet. I use downloaded files and view offline teacher's guides and learner's printable worksheets which assist me in assessment of learners in different skills.
I so wish that every school would make use of downloadable worksheets, teacher's guides, and learner's books. You can simply view or read without the use of ink, cartridges and papers. The eBooks and e-learning courses for teachers should be implemented in schools to be in line with the National Development Plan of the government in Education. My wish is that all schools would please make use of technology in their classrooms and implement the use technology as a support to the school's curriculum.
I also recommend installing Interboard, as the use of tablets in classrooms very important - remember we are educating 21st Century learners. Microsoft Technology helps me enjoy my career more and more. What are you waiting for? I don't know about your school, but, in my school, we excel thanks to the implementation of technology.

I teach grade R learners. For most of them, English is their second or third language.
I love the way Letterland teaches the basics of the English language and makes it fun.
I would advise any teacher or parent to use Letterland products to help reinforce English as a language.

X-kit Achieve
X-kit Achieve, Pearson
I use the X-kit achieve for all my Life Sciences groups. I use the revision book to help with consolidation after a module and as extra notes for learners as well as the questions at the end of each topic to assess understanding. I have also used some questions in tests. I use the Grade 12 question book to help them prepare for exams. The book is of a good standard and easy to use, aspecially for learners who struggle with the content of Life Sciences. Some other books have the tendency to be overwhelming for learners to learn from. Books are of a good quality and drawings are clear and well illustrated. I have also recently bought the Gr9 Math textbook and looking forward to expanding my range to assist with accounting.

Essensiële gids - Afrikaans (X-Kit Achieve)
X-kit Achieve, Pearson
Hierdie X-kit is ingerig om alle leerders in die EAT en HT Afrikaanse klasse te ondersteun met taal-, mondeling-, en skryfaktiwiteite. Die X-kit verduidelik grammatikale reëls asook formate van verskeie take wat formeel geassesseer kan word.
Onderwysers kan die hulpbron gebruik om die leerders voor te berei vir formele take, asook vir oefeninge. Daar word goeie onderwerpe as voorbeelde in die boek gegee. Die terminologie vir taal- en geskrewe aktiwiteite word op 'n eenvoudige manier verduidelik sodat die onderwyser dit maklik aan die leerders kan oordra indien die leerders nie die finansiële kapasiteit het om die boek self aan te skaf nie.
Voorbeelde van mondelinge en geskrewe take word in die boek aangedui, wat dit makliker vir die leerders maak om die struktuur en korrekte styl vir verskeie opdragte uit te voer.
Ek beveel die boek vir onderwysers aan wat in die senior- asook FET-fase Afrikaans as HT en EAT aanbied.

X-kit Achieve Die Kruppel Engel
X-kit Achieve, Pearson
Voorgeskrewe letterkunde word in die fynste besonderhede gedek. Deur gebruik te maak van die X-kit kan 'n onderwyser(es) omvattend alle letterkundige terme aan die leerders verduidelik en deurgee.
Deur die X-kit as voorbereiding saam met die primêre leesstof te gebruik, kan 'n onderwyser informele aktiwiteite ter voorbereiding van die eksamen aan die leerders voorhou. Leerders begryp die belangrikste aspekte, soos ruimte, intrige, karakters en temas deur na die voorbeelde uit die primêre bron wat in die X-kit uiteengesit word te gebruik.
Letterkunde in die HT en EAT Afrikaanse klaskamer vir die FET-fase word op 'n maklike wyse aan die leerders oorgedra deur hoe die X-kit uiteengesit is. Dit is verbruikersvriendelik en visuele prikkels help die leerders om die geskrewe weergawe te visualiseer.
Al die X-kit Achieve Letterkunde boeke vir die FET-fase vir die Afrikaanse klaskamer sal ek aan onderwysers aanbeveel. Dit help die onderwyser, asook die leerders om konsepte beter te verstaan.

Saving time (X-kit Achieve)
X-kit Achieve, Pearson
The X-kits help me as educator so much, my learners achieve much higher marks and it saves me so much time, as we use it as an extra resource with extra activities, in doing so my Life Sciences learners can write a common paper with confidence giving me much needed sense of calmness.
Thank you for making this teachers life a little less stressful.

Easily understood (X-Kit Achieve)
X-kit Achieve, Pearson
I love using them as resources in my class, it adds diversity and clarity to commonly misunderstood mathematics concepts. I purchased the foundation sets for my son and he enjoys working and revising with them as they are interactive and self explanatory, it leaves little room for me to explain thus creating a little independent learner.
I highly recommend it to teachers, schools and parents.
Thank you for innovative learning strategies.

Literature
X-kit Achieve, Pearson
I think it is an excellent choice, especially the literature guides. I have been using it for years as a teacher. I especially like the questions set as it encourages critical thinking. I also like that each Act or chapter has a title which helps learners to see what it is all about. I always recommend it to learners, especially the matriculants, as I find it very helpful in preparation for the final matric exams.
The literature essay that many students struggle with is broken down for the learners and therefore makes it easier for them to understand.
I have four learners who received distinctions in matric English this year and it is partly thanks to this study guide.

Platinum Literacy
Literacy and Literature, Pearson
The Publisher is Super. It is easily accessible to everyone - all learners, teachers and parents with internet access can download the pdf for free. If you are at work, your child can simply tell you her/his topic of homework and then you can assist her/him.
When teachers are on sick leave or any leave, they can still send activities to learners and assist them. Parents can assist their children even if they don't understand the content. They can use the worksheets memorandum from teacher guides - they are user-friendly.
Learners can leave their books and simply go on the internet to download Platinum Learners books or download the Worksheets App for free. Learners who are extremely needy can download study resources without paying anything.
It is user-friendly and hassle-free. No more textbooks being stolen and no more damaged books. Above all, our children like to use their smartphones and spend a lot of time on them, and, when they have downloaded Platinum Textbooks they say it is user-friendly. Halala Platinum. Thatha Platinum.
