 English 12

I’m glad you’re here!

The purpose of this course is to introduce you to some of the major British and American authors, to help discover a rich cultural heritage, and to develop a genuine appreciation for some of the most time-tested works of art in the English language.

The more deeply you understand yourself, the more deeply you will understand great writers with great vision. Exploring a great piece of poetry or Literature is the same as exploring a great part of your Self. And that being said... Let's get started with some great writers and great vision.

​Let's begin our Self-realization journey.

Let's have some fun!

Concentrate on the past
Concentrate on the future

How can you be happy?
