The course was pretty cool, and I liked how it covered different genres and styles. I found the lectures on poetry and drama to be really interesting, and the assignments helped me practice my writing and analysis skills. The course materials were mostly good, but I thought some of the readings could be more contemporary and diverse. Still, I learned a lot and enjoyed the discussions with my classmates from around the world. The instructors were also helpful and responsive to our questions and concerns.

The English Literature course at Stanmore School of Business was a detailed and well-structured program that provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the subject. As a student from Ghana, I was interested in exploring the literary traditions of different cultures and regions, and this course did not disappoint. The curriculum was rigorous and challenging, with a focus on close reading, critical analysis, and effective writing. I appreciated the opportunity to engage with a wide range of texts, from Shakespearean plays to contemporary African novels, and to analyze them within their historical and cultural contexts. The course materials were of high quality, with clear and concise study guides, informative video lectures, and relevant discussion topics. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more diverse perspectives and voices in the course materials, but overall, I was satisfied with the course and feel that it has prepared me well for further study and research in the field of English literature.
