About Your Course
Getting Started
Modules
Your course covers everything you need to study for your exams. Your first two units are introductory units, covering all the information you need about the iGCSE in English literature, the exams, how to get support and more. In addition, there is guidance on how to successfully study online. The rest of your course is structured as follows:
Unit 3: iGCSE English Literature reading list: This is the list of mandatory texts you will need to read, analyse, and study in detail. We’ve included a list of additional text that we highly recommend as additional reading so you can practice your skills on unseen texts.
Units 4 to 9: To Kill a Mockingbird: These units cover everything you need to enable you to analyse the book and understand life during the American Civil Rights Movement.
Units 10 to 16: Macbeth: No English literature course would be complete without Shakespeare! In these units we delve into the world of witches, kings, paranoia, and civil war while we analyse this famous play.
Units 17 to 20: A View from a Bridge: Told in two acts, Arthur Miller's play A View from the Bridge (1955) tells the story of Eddie Carbone, an Italian American Longshoreman whose household is upended by the arrival of his wife's cousins from Italy. Their arrival sets in motion a chain of events that leads, unexpectedly, to Eddie's dramatic undoing. You’ll analyse the play and its characters before focussing on themes and ideas.
Units 21 to 27: Poetry anthology: This group of units cover poetry from several authors from the early nineteenth century to the modern day. They will help you to become skilled at analysing poetry as a form of storytelling.
Your course is completed with a set of mock exams.
