English Literature help!!!!!

Hii.
I'm going to university later this year to study English literature, so I feel I can help you. It may be too late to start an EPQ as you will be very busy in year 13 with mocks and general revision for A-levels. So I would suggest completing as many MOOCs as you can on topics within English that interest you, as there is no point in doing courses you aren't interested in.
An obvious but useful piece of advice is to read as much as possible. While you are reading, don't just stick to passively reading books within your 'comfort genre,' stretch yourself and try new things. As well as this, with books that you both like and dislike- this can also apply to authors- think critically about what it is that you like/ dislike about them. Similarly, researching the social and historical context of a book can help you have a different perspective of said novel and may help you make connections that you didn't notice before. Diversify your reading tastes, i.e. if you read exclusively novels try a memoir, and so on. This will help you as you can put an example of a book you analysed that is outside your course content.
If there are any options for you to volunteer at local libraries or a kids club it may go further in showing your love for language and how you want to help others grow theirs.
I hope this helps.
Good luck with everything!
