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

Lady Macbeth · Act 1, Scene 5 · Ambition
How we teach it
The same routine our tutors use in lessons — now in your pocket for ten minutes a night.
We show you the quotation, what it actually means in plain English, and the analysis your examiner wants — in short, readable steps.
Then you practise: complete the quote, who said it, which theme, and exam-style questions. Little and often beats one long cram.
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
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.
