Free English Lit classes

​

Hey everyone, yes, you read that right: free English literature classes.

Who I'm looking for: Anyone new to English lit, ideally someone pursuing a bachelor's in literature or who just started a master's.

The catch (because I know you're waiting for it): I have ADHD, and I want a structured routine, a real commitment, and some responsibility in my life. You get a teacher, I get a reason to show up on time. Everybody wins.

About me: I've spent 7 years with literature. I won't claim to be the best teacher out there, but I'm one of the most creative ones you'll find.

The setup: Classes are online, and we'll decide the syllabus and timings together.

Pros of learning from me:

  • I can be funny (rare, but it happens)

    (I also have notes for ugc net, of my own)

  • I don't believe in absolutes. Terrible for math, great for literature.

Cons:

  • My current students keep hunting for flaws in their near-perfect teacher. Tough crowd.

Interested? Comment or DM me with your course and year, and we'll sort out the rest.

What we'll cover

-Poetry: Where we learn that the curtains are never just blue.

-Shakespeare: Everyone dies, but in iambic pentameter.

-Victorian novels: 900 pages of drama that a single text message could have solved.

-Literary theory: Arguing about what the author meant, even though Barthes declared the author dead. Not my fault, I wasn't there.

-Psychoanalytic criticism: Yes, the Oedipus complex. Don't worry, it's purely academic, and no one's mother will be involved.

-Cultural studies: Where we find out that your cereal box, your memes, and your Spotify Wrapped are all "texts" worth analyzing.

-Postmodernism: Nobody knows what's happening, and that's the whole point.
