Written by teachers of English, History and Drama, "SmartPass" guides train students to listen with a critical mind - focusing on key themes, relevant historical, social and biographical background - as well as developing study skills and strategies.

Used in schools and for independent study, "SmartPass" guides enable students to experience and explore the essentials of literature at their own pace, guided by their own personal tutor, The PassMaster, played by Joan Walker.
