Dame Alice Owen preparation
Hi All,
My twins are in year 4 and they will be sitting for DAO entrance exam in 2019. I want to start the preparation and I am looking for some advice? I am looking for English tutor who prepare kids for DAO.( preferably in Welwyn Garden City) and I have also bought some AE tuition books to start with.
I am more worried about english than maths for them. Is there any specific format for english which I should follow?
Any advice will be a great help.
Thanks,
Swarn

Re: Dame Alice Owen preparation
The RSL comprehension papers are, in my opinion (3xdc who have taken exam) the closest to DAO in style and text. They also benefit from having guidance for what makes a good quality answer. There are two packs and the last couple are sufficiently difficult to be final prep. The only proviso is that the extracts used are nowhere near as long as DAO and you should make sure your DCs are able to read 3 or 4 pages of text without struggle.
