The course covered a wide range of topics, from Shakespearean sonnets to modernist novels, and provided a good balance of theoretical and practical knowledge. I found the instructor's feedback on my assignments to be helpful and constructive, which enabled me to improve my writing skills. The course materials were well-organized and easy to follow, although I would have liked more opportunities for peer discussion and feedback. Overall, I'm pleased with my learning experience and would recommend this course to others looking for a comprehensive introduction to English Literature.
