About this ebook
Teaching English Literature 16 – 19 is an essential new resource that is suitable for use both as an introductory guide for those new to teaching literature and also as an aid to reflection and renewal for more experienced teachers.

- discussion of the principles behind the teaching of literature at this level;
- guidelines on course planning, pedagogy, content and subject knowledge;
- advice on teaching literature taking into account a range of broader contexts, such as literary criticism, literary theory, performance, publishing, creative writing and journalism;
- examples of practical activities, worksheets and suggestions for texts;
- guides to available resources.
Aimed at English teachers, teacher trainees, teacher trainers and advisors, this resource is packed full of new and workable ideas for teaching all English literature courses.
