FAQ

Are the lectures easy to organise?

Very. We have good availability and can work round you. Lectures on Zoom can be scheduled during existing English lessons.

What about lectures in person?

Take your students off-timetable for a sequence of lectures geared to your set texts: morning, afternoon or all day.

Length of lectures and Q&A?

Each lecture is 45 minutes long which leaves time for us to lead a Q&A session with your students at the end.

Which texts do you lecture on?

Our lectures are engaging and academically rigorous. They provide a clear overview of the text (excellent for revision or introducing a new text). All lectures reference detailed literary, historical and biographical context as well as influential critics. Select from our list of existing lectures here :
