A Level

Studying for A Levels can be a stressful time for all students.  Universities are now are making offers that ask students to gain the highest grades.
Success at A Level English Literature  rests on the following simple and basic factors:
a detailed knowledge of the set texts
the ability to develop a clear academic
 style essay that is relevant and demonstrates an understanding of how the author has shaped the meaning of the text
My approach
 
I always start with the text, sounds obvious doesn’t it?
However, nothing really helps a student gain the highest grades without undertaking several detailed readings of their set texts.
In each lesson, I always aim to ensure that my students have a sound understanding of their set texts.  This will include working through structured questions that build to develop a coherent set of working notes.
I usually base a series of lessons around an essay title that provides a focus and also gives me the opportunity of covering the assessment objectives outlined in the syllabus.
I also strive to balance the needs of reading analytically with p writing in an academic style.  In my experience, students often have a good grasp of the text but they struggle to express their ideas clearly and coherently.
To this end, I use Google Docs as an ea sy way of modeling academic writing.  The platform enables me to construct an essay with the student in real time.  All of my students have found this process very beneficial.
I have taught AQA, Edexcel, WJEC and CIE A Level syllabuses.
