Let's work on

Macbeth's ambition quotations have been slipping. We'll bring those back first.

“Look like th' innocent flower, But be the serpent under't”

Lady Macbeth · Act 1, Scene 5 · Ambition

How we teach it

Learn it, practise it, keep it

The same routine our tutors use in lessons — now in your pocket for ten minutes a night.

Step 1

Learn

We show you the quotation, what it actually means in plain English, and the analysis your examiner wants — in short, readable steps.

Step 2

Practise

Then you practise: complete the quote, who said it, which theme, and exam-style questions. Little and often beats one long cram.

Step 3

Improve

We keep an eye on the quotations you keep dropping and bring those back until they are secure. That is where the marks are.

For parents

Proper revision, not just screen time

English Shop has taught English online for years. This app focuses on the thing students lose most marks on: knowing quotations precisely and explaining them well.

We do not promise grades. We give students the knowledge, the practice and the honest feedback to earn them.

  • Organised by text, character and theme — nothing to set up
  • Written by English Shop tutors, aimed squarely at the exam
  • Plain-English explanations, not walls of text
  • Clear progress so effort is visible at home
  • Weaker quotations come back automatically
