Well i am not an expert, on how to imporove on 2nd Lang becasue I am a First Language Speaker...

Hoever these may help:

Listen to the BBC news on TV and pn Radio.
Read story books that interest you.
Dont try increasing your vocab too much, instead use the words you alreadt know as well as you can
Practice past exam papers in Exam conditions, dont break it up.

I'd still say no to repeating....it's a waste
Instead think of doing well in A levels

I agree with Nid, it does not really matter, honest. Just concentrate on A levels. Dont resit.

I got an A in english first language....so I'll look for some of my answers to past paper questions and put them up for you to read....and dude is also an excellent student...amazingly scored an A*, so I'd request you to put some of your work up on for him to see..

Ofcourse I would Kmaster, I did Edexcel English First Language...

I have attatched some files. Just take a look at the essay questions, these are not exactly my best, i have been trying to find them for a long time though.
