JC
I teach GCSE and A-Level English. Lots of the Sound of Pen classes are aimed at simply heightening your enjoyment of the subject – but, equally, most of them do also tie quite neatly to particular units, themes or texts. If you’re looking to practice a particular skill or learn about a specific text, then the list below might help. At the bottom of the page, you’ll find a chart of all the artists we’ve featured.
