I found the English Literature course at Stanmore School of Business to be a great introduction to the subject. As a French student, I was a bit concerned that my language skills would be a barrier, but the course materials were clear and easy to follow. I appreciated the focus on practical skills, such as close reading and essay writing, which I can apply to my future studies. The course also gave me a broader understanding of the historical and cultural context of English literature, which was fascinating. My only suggestion for improvement would be to include more diverse perspectives and authors in the curriculum. Overall, I'm happy with the course and would recommend it to others looking for a solid foundation in English literature.

I recently completed the English Literature course at Stanmore School of Business and I'm really pleased with the experience. As a student from South Africa, I was interested in exploring the diverse range of English literature from different regions and periods. The course did a great job of covering the basics, from literary theory to historical context, and the instructor's feedback on our assignments was always constructive and helpful. I appreciated the opportunity to engage with my peers from around the world, which added a rich layer of perspective to our discussions. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more African authors and texts in the curriculum, which would make the course more relevant to my own cultural context. Overall, I'd recommend the course to anyone looking for a solid introduction to English literature.
