English Literature: Lighter
Lighter reading for adults with classic books
Description
Are you interested in reading English Literature, but unsure where to begin?
Let us a find a classic book to suit you. Suggested books are the Penguin Readers of Jane Austen novels like Persuasion and Sherlock Holmes, and if you like detective stories, the Collins edition of Agatha Christie classics like The Body in the Library.
It is recommended to buy the book online or in a shop. Some of the language is changed to make the story easier but you still get the fun of the plot and an interesting and satisfying story.
These books give a pleasant introduction to literature in English for intermediate or advanced adult learners.
Either we can read the book aloud in the lesson and talk about it as we go along; or you can read before the lesson and ask me questions about it!
Feel free to book a trial lesson to discuss these.
