How do you write an English-literature essay? How do you structure it? How do you analyse effectively? How do you write about form and structure in poetry? What's aposiopesis? This is a book for ambitious students who are aiming for the highest grades in the English literature exam. Written by a teacher with years of experience teaching the CIE syllabus, this book gives full, in-depth guidance for writing strong exam-style essay answers. Featuring a range of example essays, techniques, terminology, and explanations of the mark scheme, this is everything you'll need for taking on CIE syllabi: 0427, 0475 or 0992. Review: A* - We think this will help improve your grade. The book guides a student through all the things an examiner is looking for to get the top grades. It doesn't tell you what to write, more the mistakes to avoid and what to focus on, by explaining how to approach and structure an English Literature essay. It starts by answering the question 'What is the point of an essay?' and goes on to give some engaging illustrations of how to correctly integrate quotes, what an introduction needs etc. and also looks at terminology that can be used to get those extra ticks. Martin's style means that it is not too stodgy for a teenager to get through. It gave my daughter the confidence to write her own interpretation of poems - it doesn't matter what your teacher thinks, if have a different view and can justify your own ideas then go for it.
