A Level English Literature

UPDATED 20161024 13:47:24

A relevant, engaging and up-to-date course that approaches the reading and study of literature through the lens of genre and theory, encouraging the independent study of a range of texts within a shared context, giving logic and meaning to the way that texts are grouped for study. To develop students’ interest in reading and studying Shakespeare, prose, drama and poetry; to encourage enthusiastic engagement with the ideas in texts and the writer’s crafting of language; to promote discussion of literary ideas in a co-operative and explorative seminar setting. A love of reading and a willingness to extend reading experience beyond the prescribed list of texts are desirable. What could I go on to next? Teaching; journalism; advertising; law; civil service; any job that requires advanced communication skills.
