At AS level last year, i did The BFG & Alice Adventures in Wonderland. For Coursework i did a speech to be used at a primary school on encouraging children to help charity causes, and i did an article for the guardian newspaper on a for and against argument for animal testing. I also studied the Anthology.
At A2 Level this year, i studied Othello, and various synoptic papers, and for my tranformation coursework, i transformed Othello into a teenage/modern version. -
